Atoma - Skylight: Once you dive into the atmospheric soundscapes that Atoma produced on Skylight  it's very difficult not to be amazed and taken somewhere out of this time and space. Post metal as it should be, don't miss this one. Link: Website

 

Forgotten Tomb - ...And Don't Deliver Us From Evil...: Nihilistic, dark, adventurous and heavy. …And Don’t Deliver Us From Evil… is an album that amazes with its desperation and rawness, it's also expressed through very vivid and sincere lines. Black & Roll...? Exactly! Read a review HERE. Link: Website

The Foreshadowing - Second World: The Foreshadowing have been learning from masters of gothic doom till now, but now it's time that masters should learn from them or better said, they have already became one of the elite.

The Gathering - Disclosure: The sounds of Disclosure varies from Mandylion through How To Measure A Planet? to Souvenirs, alternative rock and gothic rock and yet remains fresh, a new step in The Gathering’s evolution.
