  • Ludicra / Krallice / Empyrean Plague @ Rancho Relaxo, Toronto ON, April 14, 2010

    … Once again, the Ludicra (and Krallice) rallied in the face of a seemingly impossible situation. With one guitarist down, they cancelled a few dates, regrouped, and continued the tour. John is, by all reports, making a nearly miraculous recovery. He has met up with his band- and tour-mates, and Ludicra will be playing the…

  • Ludicra – The Tenant

    By Laura Wiebe Taylor I’m new to Ludicra. Bad timing kept me from even checking out their live show opening for Hammers of Misfortune last summer. The Tenant has convinced me I’ve got some catching up to do. Sometimes described as a black metal band, Ludicra is far more than that. Yes, there are black…

  • Hammers Of Misfortune, Ludicra, Crux Of Aux, Slaughter Strike @ Casbah, Hamilton ON, August 8, 2009

    Review by Sean Palmerston, Images by Albert Mansour Truth be told, it has been a pretty shitty summer weather-wise here in Southern Ontario so far. Instead of our usual hot, humid summers it has been the kind where you can count the truly sticky days on one hand. This Saturday was another drab, dreary one…

  • Krallice / Withered / Titan / Kosmograd @ Sneaky Dee’s, Toronto ON, April 26th, 2011

    … what they are doing; they know exactly how much it’s going to hurt; and they’re going to enjoy it. Finally, exhausted and battered, it was time for Krallice. This was my third time seeing this extraordinary black metal band, first in Toronto, on the ill-fated tour with Ludicra, and then later with Bloody Panda and…

  • Fall Into Darkness 2009 DVD

    … Into Darkness. Scheduled for several nights around Halloween, the festival offers an eclectic combination of extreme metal, ambient, and pagan-influenced music more in celebration of the roots of Halloween rather than its more popular, tacky appeal. 2009’s three-day lineup was especially strong, featuring such bands as YOB, Ludicra, Agalloch, and Earth, and luckily for…

  • Portal/ Krallice/ Bloody Panda @ Mohawk Place, Buffalo NY May 24, 2010

    … in Krallice and Bloody Panda, it wasn’t long before I found myself once again in front of the stage, listening, rapt. Krallice poured an intense amount of energy into this performance; Colin Marston, in particular, was positively fiendish. I saw Krallice for the first time back in April, with Ludicra and Empyrean Plague, and…

  • Hellbound.ca’s TOP 20 ALBUMS OF 2010, Part Two

    … Tenant (Profound Lore) Black metal this may be, but The Tenant is best considered as a progressive album. What makes The Tenant so compelling is the manner in which introspection and explosion are combined; it would be too easy to alternate between the two and call it a day, but Ludicra manages to invest…
