Be’lakor has added another gem to their already impressive discography with ‘Vessels’. They have proven time after time that they are masters of the melodic death metal genre. – By Patrick Thompson

‘Maestro’ has that perfect balance of excellence I’m always looking for when listening to symphonic metal. Spectacular albums like ‘Maestro’ give me faith that great new metal music is still being made. – By Patrick Thompson

‘Violator’ delivers plenty of aggressive, sharp precision drumming and intense, catchy guitar hooks. An incredible album by a band that gives it their all from start to finish. – By Patrick Thompson

It was hard to stay awake with the same repetitive, hypnotic, snail-paced guitar riff, long drawn-out spoken word vocals and uninspired drum beat. – By Patrick Thompson

Patrick Thompson had a quick chat with bassist and vocalist Keenan Nathan Oakes from South African atmospheric black metal band Wildernessking.

Overall, although I know it’s only January, Wildernessking has set the bar very high for any other black atmospheric albums I will listen to for the rest of this year. – By Patrick Thompson
