Album Review: Nervosa-Slave Machine

-

  Words by Anselm Anderson Brazilian thrash metal band Nervosa returns with another batch of raw, brutal, and honest songs, centred around politics , war , and religion . The band's sixth album, titled " Slave Machine ," will be released on Friday, April 3rd via Napalm Records . The album picks up right where 2023's Jailbreak left off, with singer Prika Amaral still in top form after making her debut on that record. Her fierce, abrasive vocals rival those of any male singer with guttural growls , as she howls like a wolf on the hunt. The quintet are helped by the strong production skills of Martin Furia , best known for his work with German destroyers, Destruction . His attentive ear to detail brings out the menacing and hellacious feelings of the band as a whole. I have been an admirer of the band ever since i saw them open for fellow Female Metal act, Burning Witches on tour a few years back. Their sound is crisp and emotional, layered over sharp, frenetic guita...

artwork by OMGXERO Edited by Anselm Anderson Industrial Metal supergroup RIKETS are set to release a long-awaited EP titled Tales from the Construct AlphAA v.1 on April 20. The five track EP was produced by RIKETS and Ben Schigel ( Chimaira , Drowning Pool , Walls of Jericho , MGK ) and mixed by Ben Schigel at Spider Studios in Cleveland, Ohio.  The EP is a collection of material written during the Covid lockdowns tackling subject matter such as isolation, the takeover of artificial intelligence , trans-humanism and system overreach. Subjects that may be far beyond this editor's reach.  This will be the band's first release in fifteen years, picking up where their All American Death Cult album left off after a near 16-year hiatus. The new effort sees the band swing in a massive direction to a more synth-based sound while still staying true to its metal roots with tracks like “Misery”, “Infected and Controlled” and “FEED” “FEED” is  the first single from the upcoming...

Photo Credit: Simon Liem New Album Same Fangs Releases May 15, 2026 Canadian songwriter Spencer Krug has announced that  his new solo album Same Fangs  will be  out May 15 on Pronounced Kroog, alongside its first single, “Timebomb,”, which landed last week. Available on digital and vinyl, after Wolf Parade ’s “I’ll Believe In Anything” Resurfacing through Netflix’s *Heated Rivalry*, a new wave of listeners began discovering Krug’s catalogue, reliving over twenty years of hard work. For an artist whose projects have amassed hundreds of millions of streams with Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown , Moonface , and his solo recordings, the timing feels more rewarding. Same Fangs   is built almost entirely around piano and voice, the record blends  bombast with tension and clarity over chaos. There are influences of Tobias Jesso Jr.’, late-era  Leonard Cohen , and  Lou Reed ’. But this is not imitation. It’s distillation. An indie lifer narrowing the le...
