Witching Chronicles: Exploring The DRUNKEN CROCODILES’ Aegony
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, […]
Witching Chronicles: Exploring The PLASMAJET’s Solastalgia
PLASMAJET’s “Solastalgia” firmly stakes its claim in the stoner metal realm – an audacious record that wears its influences on its sleeve while refusing to be pigeonholed. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill metal album; it’s a raw, unvarnished exploration of heavy, fuzz-drenched grooves and off-kilter rhythms. Recorded during the harsh winter of 2023/2024, the album encapsulates […]

Witching Chronicles: Exploring The Plasticdrop’s Life, Death and Miracles
Plasticdrop’s Life, Death, and Miracles is one of those albums that feels bigger the more you listen to it. At first, it might just sound like a solid heavy rock record—lots of crunching guitars, pounding drums, and raw energy. But once you spend some time with it, you start to notice all these little moments […]
Witching Chronicles: Exploring The EYE OF THE GOLEM’s Nigredo
Eye of the Golem’s latest album, Nigredo, hits hard in all the right places, delivering a deeply atmospheric and weighty post-metal experience. It’s a slow burn, but that’s what makes it work so well. The band has taken their heavy, sludgy riffs and combined them with more experimental touches – industrial, psychedelic, and some seriously […]
Witching Chronicles: Exploring The VAST PYRE
When you put on VAST PYRE’s debut album, you’re in for a memorable ride through some seriously heavy, dark music. This is Stoner Doom at its core – big, slow riffs that just roll over you, pulling you into this almost hypnotic state. If you’re into bands like Electric Wizard, Black Sabbath, or Sleep, you’ll […]
