x-camp0 A fortunately relatable title for such a new beginning. Coming of age is perhaps another term that suits even our own status. Much appreciated as always. Favorite track: Lie in Cinder.

onsidefox This album, much like the rest of Castle Rat's discography, captures the essence of going on an adventure through a wasted fantasy world. The instrumentals and the vocals collide in a way that sells the feeling of adventure beautifully. Favorite track: Red Sands.

Trollfiend A perfect fusion of all the best nostalgia I have for fantasy and metal, and I appreciate their commitment to the mythos they've created. Favorite track: Cry For Me.

herdarkmajesty The vibe? ✨ i m m a c u l a t e ✨ Favorite track: Feed The Dream.

arris_isoltan A super-charged onslaught of heavy metal fury. The drums pounding with the waves against the rocks. The riffs drifting with the wind in the splash of the ocean spray. Frazetta's Sea Witch comes to life.

swampppy I’ve been a Sabbath fan for years, Came across Castle Rat and I’ve been hooked since, Riley and the lads are something else…. This record is no different…. Absolute banger ❤️❤️

Brett (Lascaille's Shroud / Soulmass) An esoteric album if there ever was one. A very unique release in pretty much every facet, from the production to the songwriting. But worth listening to every second. Favorite track: Ten Thousand Spears Atop The Bleeding Mountains.

progdude2112 Very good effort by Zeicrydeus! It sounds very nostalgic, a callback to 80s melodic/black metal. Favorite track: Profane Spells & Naked Swords In the Emerald Meadows of Nhaath.

karolog Bass tone and solos are godly. All in all a great album Favorite track: Godsteel (Blood Of The Third Son).

swordpvnk This is Archspire's best offering to date. Which is high praise considering Bleed the Future was a masterpiece. These guys don't take themselves too seriously and they have every reason too considering the sheer talent exuding from every single one of them. This i think is their best quality as a band. Inhuman musical ability, paired with extremely down to earth human personalities. Never stop making music you crazy bastards.

minusoneman2 Archspire is always hell of fun! Especially with this new effort. Imagine highly melodic Blasting Symphonic (death) metal accompanied by a zombified ghost of the mighty scatman John in a really angry and pissed mood. Favorite track: Anomalous Descent.

3fireterrell Everything about this album is perfect. From the instrumentals to the vocals, all the songs pack a punch!!! Favorite track: Limb of Leviticus.
