Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

6/3/2018 - Review by: Greg Watson
Mid-paced death metal that doesn't attempt anything different
I don't mind slower death metal, sometimes it's a refreshing change from the frenetic pace that most bands follow these days. Cynabare Urne just couldn't really grasp my attention for more than a few minutes with 'In the Cremation Ground' though. The songs started getting repetitive after a couple tracks and while the music was decent, there wasn't anything to really set it apart from other bands out there. The guitars plodded and chugged along, picking up pace a few times only to slow back down again. The vocals were pretty decent and the production was done very nicely.
