Occult Vibe Haven (OVH)
Some records shake the walls. This one is the walls—closing in, humming, breathing heavy. Folwark’s All Shadows Stretched isn’t something you listen to. It’s something you fall into, teeth clenched. Tracked in an abandoned mine and sounding like it was possessed there, the whole thing exhales mineral dust and dread. It doesn’t play – it […]
Some bands write albums. Komatsu builds them—out of concrete, feedback, and old truck parts still dripping oil. On A Breakfast for Champions, they’re not serving up your typical greasy spoon stoner fare. This is more like getting punched in the jaw before your first coffee. It’s loud, it’s filthy, and it doesn’t ask if you’re […]
From the very first note of The Fall of the Gods, it’s clear that Black Elephant have gone all in. Fourteen years into their journey, they’ve crafted something that feels like a reckoning. While Cosmic Blues and Seven Swords hinted at what the band was capable of, this new record is the realization of their […]
Some bands sound like they’ve got something to sell. GREY CZAR sound like they’ve got something to get off their chest before the walls come down. Euarthropodia, their newest full-length out of the Austrian underground, is the kind of record that doesn’t beg you to listen. It just starts, and if you’re not ready for […]
Let’s get one thing straight: Satanic Panic Attack isn’t trying to impress you. It doesn’t care about your playlists or your genre tags. This thing came howling out of the Norwegian wastelands like a grease-soaked demon on a chopper, middle finger raised, speakers blazing, and no goddamn brakes. HĂ…NDGEMENG aren’t here to reinvent the wheel […]
Introduction: Due to time constraints as regular individuals running Witching Buzz and focusing primarily on writing reviews, we are limited to publishing only one (occasionally two) review(s) per day. However, we strongly believe in providing greater exposure to deserving bands and musicians who have put in immense effort. As a result, we have launched a new section called “Witching […]
LO-PAN have been at this for a while now, and you can hear it. Their latest, Get Well Soon, doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it does what it needs to do – hits hard, sticks in your head, and sounds like a band that knows exactly who they are. No gimmicks, no overthinking, just solid, […]
There’s a certain kind of doom album that doesn’t just sound heavy – it feels both heavy and raw at the same time. Not just in the low-end rumble of the riffs or the sheer weight of distortion, but in its atmosphere, the way it pulls you under like slow-moving tar. The Rider is that […]
Amammoth’s path has never been about playing it safe, and with Distant Skies and The Ocean Flies, they’re not holding back. From the first demo, Inhale, to their debut The Fire Above, this band’s been working on something heavy, slow, and dirty. And they’ve nailed it again with their second full-length. This is a band […]
There’s a certain energy that only comes from a band that’s been through the wringer – lineup shifts, lost time, the whole cycle of breaking apart and clawing their way back. Aegony sounds like a record born from that struggle. It’s unfiltered, urgent, and absolutely refuses to play by modern production’s rules. No artificial shine, […]
