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.

Satanic Blasphemies is a compilation of two demos and one EP covering the beginnings of the Swedish band from 1990-92. This album opens as any good black metal album should, projecting a dark ambiance courtesy of "Slow Asphyxiation" that continues throughout the tracks. The band was known for its combo of death metal vocals with black metal rhythms, creating a unique sound and although this has changed slightly over the years more to black, they've never lost their metallic focus or edge. These are impressive demos showcasing the upstarts of a very important band within the BM second wave. Remember it’s not evil—it’s EEEEEEEEEEVIL!!
