ARCHITECTURAL GENOCIDE - MALIGNANT COGNITION (BRUTAL DEATH METAL, COMATOSE MUSIC, RELEASED JAN 16TH, 2026, REVIEW)


Malignant Cognition is very solid Brutal Death Metal with strong riffs and bestial gutturals. The drums are a little of a hitting a pot sound sometimes, but it doesn’t really bother Bog considering his love of grindcore and hardcore, which can be much rougher. This is all about the heavies, swinging heads around that are full of sweat and parting with buckets of it. Would be best served to play in a venue with no air conditioning, so the sweat can fall off the ceiling back to the pit below.

Bog also would like to note the good album cover, pretty sick artwork. 

Sometimes, there is no shame standing up and saying, 'I’ve never been kicked in the balls so hard as when I listened to Architectural Genocide.'

In closing: 23 mins of beautiful carnage and very enjoyable listen for fans of Brutal Death and extreme heavy music.

Dejection Chrysalis made Bog relive his memory of the 4th Bog War, a bloody conflict between Bog creatures and ou...

BEAUTIFUL FREAKIN' WEIRDO: ZAP THE FEAR (INDUSTRIAL METAL, RELEASED INDEPENDENTLY 08/08/25, REVIEW)

Image
Beautiful Freakin' Weirdo released Zap The Fear a few months ago and is an Industrial Metal offering featuring 3 high octane tracks through a lyrical, and musical journey about real world hell and the psychological connection to it. I am Fire   has an upbeat rhythm with a consistent pace designed to keep people on the dance floor. It's kind of a mix between Static X with Rob Zombie with a slow acid techno hook coming around 2 minutes in. The vocals deliver the chorus effectively with a catchy riff serving as the signature for the song along with a fast paced beat for the drums with fairly high BPM. Psychohead continues on from the fast opening to maintain the pace and not allow people to leave the dancefloor. The drums are particularly good on this track, and support the guitars and vocals nicely. Vocals again deliver the lyrics and their message clear with a chorus for fans to sing along, or shout out on the dance floor. Pyschohead is definitely more on the metal side compa...
