5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.

2.5-2 Fair - Worth a listen, but best obtained by collectors.

0 Terrible - Waste of your life and time.

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.

7/1/2017 - Review by: Eric Compton
These Polish death heads continue their push into hardcore
Polish act Decapitated are no stranger to extremities. The cold and ruthless aggressors march into their seventh album to date with 'Anticult', once again for Nuclear Blast. The band keep removing themselves from death metal and this is no different. The really dry percussion and down-tuned scrape of the strings makes me think of Ektomorf and Sepultura as inspiration. Deathcore still rears its head with some technical blast beats and timing changes. 'Chaos A.D.' anyone?
Recommended for fans of: Konkhra, Ektomorf, The Haunted, Sepultura
