The current and ongoing movement of contemporary electric guitar playing has seen the instrument reach new heights in the realm of heavy music.  Animals as Leaders and their fretboard wizardry have made them nearly a household name.  Acts like Plini, Periphery, and Chon aren’t far behind with their unique, innovative, approach to playing and performing.  File Hong Kong’s Oliver Cheung into the “up and coming and tremendously talented” folder.

Towering post-metal is enveloped by monolithic, transcendental sound on Hundred Year Old Man‘s new EP, Rei.

Instead of worshiping solely at the altars of Neurosis and Isis, as many similar bands tend to do, Leeds’ Hundred Year Old Man approach the post-metal scene a bit differently. While crushing, dynamic sludge is integral to the genre’s sound, Hundred Year Old Man tend to focus more on creating potent moods and immersive atmospheres, as made evident by this new EP. The band’s 2017 Black Fire single dipped its toes into the wavering ambient waters, but was very much a brooding, doom-laden affair through and through. On Rei, however, the sextet embrace the ambient and atmospheric aspects of their sound and create an enthralling experience that swallows listeners whole.  Continue Reading

2017 has come to a close, which means every blog and music publication gets to bombard you with their shitty opinions on what they thought the best music of the year was. Svbterranean is no different, I am sorry to say. Starting today, a bulk of our writers will begin posting their favorite releases of 2017. Feel to comment and tell us your favorites and what we might have missed. You can also troll us, we don’t mind.

Without further adieu, here is my top 30 releases of the year. There was a multitude of good releases this year and it was extremely difficult to narrow it down to JUST 30. These are the releases that made an impression on me and stuck with me the most year. Just like last year, my favorite records listed span across genres and are not limited to just the extreme music we typically cover on the site. I hope you find something you like. Get into it.

Blog Aus Nord: DEAFHEAVEN – “Sunbather”

Black metal has always been an extreme music genre I didn’t mind, but have never really delved in to. I am an old man: 34 years old, misanthropic, had a stroke, and stuck in my ways, but with time comes some openness and experimenting. I started to look for random bands, keeping an ear to the ground, finding a few that I liked. In 2013, an album was dropped that helped put black metal back on the map and seemed to be controversial in its own way: “Sunbather” by Deafheaven.  Continue Reading
