AEraeder
Review by ÆRæder Venue Zhora Darling – 509 1st Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN 55413 Another excellent experience at Zhora. Having the full bar in the restaurant side with the partial in the show room is always nice. They were running a “beer & bump” special with a fairly wide range of shot options for only… Read more

Rage Therapy – Torment – The Pain – EP
Iron Mike
Review by Iron Mike Setup Hailing from the icy shores of Lake Superior, Torment brings a fiery intensity you might expect with the self-descriptors of death metal and beatdown. The Pain is their latest release having dropped just after New Years Day 2025. From beginning to end, this EP weaves deftly back and forth between… Read more

Show Recap – 04/16/2025 – Begravement / Hanging Wound / Pursuit / Nekrotisk @ Pillar Forum
AEraeder
Review by ÆRæder Venue Pillar is a nice little spot that hosts metal shows fairly frequently. Small parking lot, mostly neighborhood street parking, so that helps to keep the cost down for the showgoer. A variety of cans of beer, THC, and non-alcoholic drinks available at an ok price. Stage was a half pipe when… Read more

21 Spins: Red Vinter – EP – Into the Deep – by Æræder
AEraeder
Review by ÆRæder After listening to these over 21 times since release, here are my takeaways: Sound/Mix This recording is high quality. Small, cheap smart screen speakers, headphones, mid level portables, stock vehicle speakers, higher end sound bars; the essence of each tunes’ energy comes across on all just fine. The stereo type elements stood… Read more

Rage Therapy – Sabot: Castration ep
Iron Mike
Review by Iron Mike Setup Pretty sure I discovered Sabot through Rob Hammer’s Doom-centric Facebook page a few years ago. With no idea they were local, I dredged through their songs on the daily for weeks before digging deeper. Upon realizing they hail(ed) from St. Paul, I had to go see them. Unfortunately, a few… Read more

I also love getting in on the ground floor with cool stuff, and a new pro-caliber extreme metal band ticks that box for sure. After hearing some on… Read more
