      <image:caption>19. Vacuous - In His Blood This record feels like what trying to do a counseling session inside a burning building must be like. In His Blood is the kind of modern death metal that hits like a brick to the face and a boot to the ribs - hard as fuck, intense, and absolutely drenched in hardcore-adjacent energy. The riffs lurch and swing with real weight, the blasts feel like they’re trying to cave in the ceiling, and the whole thing has this choking, claustrophobic heaviness that makes you instinctively look for an exit sign. Vacuous manages to hit that sweet spot where everything is filthy, violent, and unrelenting, but also weirdly catchy and addictive. It’s the kind of death metal that doesn’t just hit hard—it makes you feel honored to be getting hit. Vacuous - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>18. Intercourse - How I Fell in Love With the Void Listening to How I Fell in Love with the Void is like getting thrown down a flight of stairs by someone you genuinely admire. It’s angry as fuck, noisy, and wildly unsafe. Intercourse channels that KEN mode, “I haven’t slept in three days,” type of energy, but with even more spite and considerably less concern for your personal well-being. Every song sounds like it was recorded during an actual panic attack, which is exactly why it rules so hard. This album isn’t here to comfort you; it’s here to hold your face up to the terrifying abyss and whisper, “Isn’t it beautiful?” And honestly? Yeah. It kind of is.

      <image:caption>17. Barren Path - Grieving This bonkers debut by Barren Path is dense, technical, and completely batshit in the most creative way possible. The blasting is so frenetic it feels like the drummer is actively fleeing the scene of a violent crime. Grieving sounds like what would happen if Gridlink and Maruta had a baby that was born literally in the middle of a tornado. These riffs somehow manage to be both thought-provoking and lethal—like getting stabbed with a philosophy textbook. Every track is a whiplash-inducing sprint through chaos, precision, and pure sonic mayhem. By the end, you’re a little disoriented after consuming 12 tracks in a whopping 13 minutes, all you know is you fuckin loved it… Barren Path - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>16. Blood Monolith - The Calling of Fire When you hear the term “supergroup,” you usually brace for a messy collision of styles, egos, and at least one guy trying way too hard. But The Calling of Fire is the rare case where the pedigree actually delivers. Featuring current and former members of Vastum, Nails, Undeath, etc. Blood Monolith arrives with legit credentials—and then proceeds to set everything on actual fire. These songs are vicious and harsh, yet somehow they remain surprisingly listenable. The technicality is razor-sharp without ever slipping into “music-school flexing,” and every riff feels engineered to cave in your chest cavity. It’s brutal, tight, and unsettling in all the right ways. In the end, Blood Monolith doesn’t just stick the landing — they crater the whole landscape and leave you grateful to be buried in it.

      <image:caption>14. Trauma Bond - Summer Ends. Some Are Long Gone. This duo is a full-on paradox. Their promo photos look like they were ripped straight out of a J. Crew catalog, which makes the artistic contrast even better—you’re completely unprepared for the out-of-body facefuck they unleash. I’d call it grinding hardcore with a special emphasis on off-kilter, “destroy everything in the room” type breakdowns. Sure, they slow things down occasionally, but only to lull you into a dreamy fugue state before biting your neck open and gulping your blood like an ice cold La Croix…all while looking like Abercrombie models. If that’s not nightmare fuel, I don’t know what is. Every song just absolutely pummels and beats the fuckin shit out of you. And if any of that sounds appealing to you, we should be friends.

      <image:caption>13. Eyes - Spinner Spinner doesn’t ease you in—it kicks the door down and starts throwing furniture around before you know what the fuck is happening. After a brief intro, this record launches in full on “go mode” and never once stops to ask if you’re okay. It’s punchy, immediate, fast as hell, and drenched in the kind of noisy hardcore chaos that makes you feel like you’re being chased through a bad dream. The riffs stab, the rhythms encircle you, and the whole thing unfolds like a bar fight conducted entirely with distortion pedals and crash cymbals. Perhaps my favorite thing about this record is how completely maniacal the vocal approach is. The singer doesn’t just sound unwell—he radiates pure “I am unstable and I would like to harm you” energy in every line. It’s glorious. The overall vibe reminds me of those movie scenes where the protagonist stands over some gasoline-soaked disaster, flicks their lit cigarette, and casually watches the whole thing erupt into a spectacular fireball.

      <image:caption>12. Cadaver - Hymns of Misanthropy Hymns of Misanthropy is death metal for people who love the genre but also want their brains gently scrambled in new and interesting ways. Cadaver isn’t out here trying to out-brutalize anyone, they’re too busy being progressive, experimental weirdos in the best possible sense. This album swerves away from the slam-and-smash aesthetic and instead dives headfirst into a labyrinth of odd structures, riffs that feel like puzzles, and grooves that sneak up behind you like a socially awkward coworker. It’s still heavy, absolutely, just not in the “caveman with a sledgehammer” kind of way. The whole record is wonderfully off-kilter, creative, and just plain fun to get lost in. If you want death metal that thinks, twists, mutates, and occasionally makes you question your own sanity - but in a loving way - Hymns of Misanthropy is your jam. Cadaver - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>11. Conan - Violence Dimension Conan once again prove that you don’t need technical gymnastics to level a mountain—just riffs so simple and punishing they feel like ancient daggers. Violence Dimension is pure doom warfare, every chord and pulverizing beat crashing down like a raging tempest rolling across the northern Montana plains. It’s hypnotic, crushing, and impossibly captivating in its minimalism. No frills, no mercy, just the sound of a thunderstorm deciding it’s had enough of this god-forsaken world. And honestly, this is exactly what you’d expect from Conan at this point. These dudes are doom metal lifers who’ve been dragging their amps through the cosmic swamp for well over a decade. Their discography is one of the most consistent in modern heavy music, conveying an absolute devotion to the almighty riff. Violence Dimension doesn’t just add to that legacy, it reinforces it like another stone in an already immovable fortress. Conan - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>9. Ritual Mass - Cascading Misery Cascading Misery absolutely destroys. It’s evil, dark, and hopefully terrifying for any normie unlucky enough to wander within earshot. Ritual Mass clearly bows to the old-school death metal legends, but they lace this with just enough modern venom to make things feel fresh, violent, and extremely unsettling. The riffs are intricate and enveloping, while the production is so pristine you feel like you’re in a crowded yet comfortable Dolby Atmos orgy. This record would probably be even higher on my list if I hadn’t stumbled onto it embarrassingly late. I had no clue who these maniacs were before this release, but now? Consider me a full-blown disciple of the Ritual Mass Church of Violence. If you love heavy metal the way I do - religiously, irrationally, and with little regard for your own sanity - you need this album in your life today. Ritual Mass - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>8. Caustic Wound - Grinding Mechanism of Torment Grinding Mechanism of Torment is so absurdly heavy it feels less like an album and more like a controlled demolition. Considering Caustic Wound shares members with death metal titans Mortiferum, this level of pulverization shouldn’t surprise anyone. Every track detonates with cacophonous impact, the kind of explosive violence that makes you wonder if your speakers just assaulted you. The riffs swarm, the drums sound like they’re collapsing a Butte mine shaft, and the unhuman vocals could peel paint off your walls. It’s fast, vicious, and utterly merciless - basically the audio equivalent of getting mauled to death by a pack of Browning rezdogs. In other words: perfect. Caustic Wound - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>7. Tombs - Feral Darkness I’ll own it: I apparently slept so hard on Tombs’ recent output I might’ve entered a medical coma, because Feral Darkness snapped me awake like one of my kids dumped a bucket of ice water made of pure riffs on my head. This thing rips. The riffs are fuckin endless—like Mike Hill found a secret cheat code that unlocks “infinite killer riff mode” and just kept going out of spite. And speaking of Mike Hill, he’s never sounded more alive, more enraged, or more ready to punch a hole through the void. Every track is an absolute banger, and now I’m retroactively embarrassed I didn’t catch on sooner. My bad, Tombs. You’ve officially reclaimed my attention and my respect—and probably some of my hearing.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>6. Degraved - Spectral Realm of Ruin Spectral Realm of Ruin is pure old-school death metal worship, but done with so much conviction it feels like the gods of the early ’90s have been summoned through a cursed amp stack. If you tossed Domination era-Morbid Angel, Wolverine Blues-era Entombed, and modern Obituary into a blender and hit “liquefy,” you’d get something close—but Degraved whips that mixture into such a violent frenzy it practically climbs out of the jar to choke you itself. The tone on this record is outrageous - thick, grimy, and mean enough to sandblast a concrete wall. And the drumming? Genuinely inspired. Every fill and stomp is so tasteful and creative it’s like the drummer is trying to politely escort you into the afterlife while everyone you loved is punching you in the balls. It’s brutal, it’s fun, it’s a love letter to the classics written in blood and distortion. Death metal comfort food at its absolute finest. Degraved - Bandcamp</image:caption>

      <image:caption>1. Ancient Death - Ego Dissolution And here it is friends, my #1 record of the year. Ego Dissolution isn’t just the best metal album released in 2025, it feels like the opening chapter of a prophecy we’re all lucky to witness in real time. Ancient Death manages to pull off something incredibly rare: tasteful Chuck Schuldiner worship that honors his blueprint without ever feeling derivative. The riffs twist, shimmer, and punch with that unmistakable Death-era elegance, but they’re fully their own thing; forward-thinking, emotional, and razor-sharp. The vocals are a revelation. The harsh delivery is perfectly intelligible (a lost art, apparently), and the clean vocal passages are legitimately beautiful - haunting, soaring, and never cheesy. It’s the kind of dynamic that could’ve felt forced in lesser hands, but here it just feels…prophetic. Like the band is channeling something bigger than themselves. The mix is crisp and immaculate, letting every moment breathe while still hitting with an absurd amount of weight. And the songwriting? Masterful from start to finish. Not a wasted second, not a throwaway riff, not a dip in momentum…just 35 minutes of death metal brilliance that manages to be both savage and transcendent. From the very first spin back in April, I had that rare feeling: “Yeah… this is gonna be a tough one to beat.” And predictably, Ego Dissolution was not eclipsed. Ancient Death didn’t just drop my album of the year, they delivered a statement. A promise. And if this record is any indication, we’re standing at the doorstep of something truly special. Congratulations, Ancient Death. This one is an all-timer. Ancient Death - Bandcamp</image:caption>
