Ultima Victima – La Batalla Sera Enterna — Detonate, 2010


If there's nothing that I hate more is moshcore bands that feel it necessary for their mosh parts to have mosh parts over mosh parts. Ulitma Victima are from Mexico and sing (well bark) in Spanish. The last time I took a Spanish class was in the 10th grade so I have no clue what's going on here. I can tell you that Ultima Victima really love their mosh parts and musically they probably really love Terror and Donnybrook too. La Batalla Sera Enterna wouldn't be half bad of an EP if it weren't for over moshiness of it. Yeah, I'm making up words tonight. This EP is ridiculous with its mosh parts. I almost laughing at it with its earnest tough guy bravado straight down to picture of these gentlemen mean mugging the camera. Then I look at the cover art and completely lose it. This band could probably kick the crap out of me, but at least I would die laughing.

It might be that under the layers of sonic disfigurement, a folk ethos is present in Fohr's narrative sensibility, but it is no longer the same. … Read more

ZEPHR

Past Lives
Dumb Ghost, Snappy Little Numbers (2025)

Sometimes you can just hear the passion in a voice. ZEPHR is one of those bands. They defy convention a little bit, in that I associate gravelly voices with harsher, heavier sounds, but ZEPHR use sore-throat vocals to great effect with midtempo, emotional and melodic 3-chord chugging punk rock and some DC sound. In few words, it's raw, both musically … Read more

Kreiviskai

Motinai
Infinite Fog Productions (2025)

Kreiviskai's origins are deeply rooted in the neofolk sound and ethos. Their debut record, Zemmis : supnãi, focuses on the musical lineage of Tver, embracing the traditional instrumentation to produce a somber and moving piece. Their follow-up record, Nonregnum expands outward, focusing on various historical events and introducing further influences. The pull of neo-classical is palpable, while the abrasive industrial … Read more
