Year: 2026Label: Zoharum When mentioning industrial metal, my guess is that most people will think of bands such as Ministry, Rammstein and, I dunno, maybe Deathstars. Acts such as Godflesh seem to have vanished from the map of industrial metal … Continue reading KONTAGION: I
Year: 2020/2026Label: Transgredient Records/Zoharum Released originally in 2020 only on vinyl, Zoharum’s recent re-release of Monocube’s and Troum’s collaborative effort finally makes the album available on CD (and tape). This re-release features one track not available on the original, expanding … Continue reading MONOCUBE & TROUM: Contemplator Caeli
Year: 2026Label: Zoharum The last time we covered Polish Łubin, we dealt with a conundrum of an album. Gaza (review) was simultaneously insufferable, intolerable and incredibly potent; an album one just couldn’t ignore, even if one didn’t like it. Suffice … Continue reading ŁUBIN: Cargo

Year: 2025Label: Zoharum From Polish Zoharum’s latest batch of releases, this is simultaneously the easiest and the hardest to review. I’ve actually been sitting on this for a couple of days, mulling things over and trying to find an angle. … Continue reading KRISTOFFER OUSTAD: Magnor
Year: 2025Label: Zoharum Here’s a novel concept. Światłowód is half a (mini)album by Polish group ROD, half a compilation showcasing offshoot projects of ROD. In other words, a farewell and a hello at the same time, as ROD is apparently … Continue reading ROD/HANSOLLO/DN/RIP: Światłowód
Year: 2025Label: Zoharum Belgian Dirk Serries is back with another album under his own name. Known perhaps best for his work with Vidna Obmana, the prolific musician has worked under many monikers throughout his long career. As Dirk Serries, he … Continue reading DIRK SERRIES: Zonal Disturbances III
Year: 2025Label: Zoharum Here’s an album I wanted to like from the moment I set my eyes on its cover.
