Scene Queen – Hot Singles in Your Area (Review)
Wonderbox Metal » Metalcore

1M ago
This is the debut album from US solo metalcore band Scene Queen. Now for something a little different. The artist behind Scene Queen offers up a clash of metalcore and chart music that’s shockingly good. It almost doesn’t need stating that this is not the sort of thing I gravitate to normally, but this is ..read more

This is the fourth album from Ancst, a shapeshifting German metal band. You’re never quite sure what you’re going to get from Ancst. Black metal, crust, hardcore, death metal, dark ambient – these are just genres to play with for the band, using and discarding styles and influences at will, depending on the needs of any ..read more

Alpha Wolf – Half Living Things (Review)

Alpha Wolf are an Australian metalcore band and this is their third album. I thoroughly enjoyed 2020’s A Quiet Place to Die, as well as 2022’s split with Holding Absence The Lost & the Longing, so more new material from Alpha Wolf is very well-received. I dislike the album art, but ignoring that, what do ..read more

Venues – Transience (Review)

This is the third album from Venues, a modern metal band from Germany. 2018’s Aspire was good, but 2021’s Solace was where Venues really came into their own. The more I listened to it, the better it got, and it’s still a record that’s great when you want anthemic and catchy modern metal. Now we have Transience ..read more

This is the debut album from Balsam Grove, a post-hardcore band from the US. You’re Safe Here contains 40 minutes of material brought to us by ex-members of Caves of Glass. Whereas that mighty band played a distinct brand of multifaceted post-metal, Balsam Grove’s music is a post-hardcore mix of punk, screamo, and metalcore. Balsam ..read more

Cabal/Viscera/Vexed/Lifesick – Rebellion, Manchester – 16/01/24 (Live Review)

Here’s a tasty show that I knew I wanted to catch. Both Viscera and Cabal are extremely well-regarded at Wonderbox Metal, so this was one for me to not miss. It was, however, one of the less well-attended gigs I’ve been to in a while. A shame, but it’s other people’s loss, as this was ..read more

Dead Icarus – Ad infernum (Review)
Wonderbox Metal » Metalcore

This is the debut EP from US metal band Dead Icarus. What do you get when you throw together the ex-singer of Atreyu and members of Enterprise Earth? Something quite heavy and tasty, apparently. This five track EP has a duration of 23 minutes, and is pretty damn crushing. I’ve loved the singer’s throaty roar ..read more

9M ago
It’s Damnation o-clock once more! This is always such a good festival to attend. The line up is an interesting and varied one, with some bands I’m less interested in, some that are an essential experience, and some frustrating clashes. I missed some great bands today, unfortunately, but that’s always going to be the case ..read more
