From the depths of grief and the swamp alike: Splendidula's Absentia is a devastating fourth album born from real loss, blending black metal and doom with fragile atmospheric passages — featuring Aaron Stainthorpe of MY DYING BRIDE — a record soaked in grief and sorrow. syn.terra's Mellow Evil fuses jazz stylings with grinding guitars, pounding double-bass drums, and will o' wisp synths in an instrumental progressive swamp metal journey. Jacob's Fall's Lost In Silence channels melancholy and inner struggle into dark, deeply melodic rock — intensely elegiac and never hopeless — while their earlier The War We Miss? is playful, theatrical, and symphonically expansive. Bloodshot Cyclops rounds it out with metallically bombastic thrash rock and sarcastically stupid lyrics — Motörhead meets Scatterbrain at full volume.
