Ion
“Horrifying! Portal's Ion is one of the most dystopian and sound-rich technical death metal records of the decade.”
Vexovoid
“The fourth album from Australian heavy metal abusers Portal is their shortest to date, but parsing it should take you the better part of this calendar year. Initially forceful and ultimately complex, Vexovoid redirects the image of death metal through a dervish funhouse.”
Ion
“The Australian band delivers a jarring, dissonant record of non-linear death metal filtered through a necro black-metal screen, with a crisp high end that brings out every jagged turn.”
Avow
“The Australian metal band’s sixth album is dense and disorienting, collapsing the boundary between the human voice and machine-made clamor.”
Avow
“Somehow the accompanying dark ambience of Hagbulbia leaves a stronger impression than Avow.”
Vexovoid
“Australian death metal outfit Portal has a sound that impenetrably thick and noisy, and they use it to bombard listeners with an ever-changing series of riffs and dismal melodies.”
