Riffage: Foscor – “Searching a Seal of Pain”
. . .
Normally I don't do pre-release hype, but I want the world to know about Foscor's Groans to the Guilty. I've gushed about Foscor here and here, and judging from the promo trailer above, I will likely love the new record as well. The song in the trailer is called "Searc…

Nahemah, Flesh reviews
My review of Nahemah's new album is up at Stylus. After many listens, I realized that Nahemah was like a lusher, less repressed Isis.
Up at Metal Injection is my review of old-school (and excellent) Swedish death metal act Flesh.
