Bricked system

Hello my system will no longer restart, I get past the grub screen but it crashes when attempting to recover the journal.
The last symptom I got was my terminal emulator not opening and not being able to run any commands from dmenu.
I later force shutdown the device and restarted, only to find it crashing at any attempt of this.
Please help.

To make really sure it crashes when recovering the journal I would say to run fsck externally, depends on the filesystem of your usage, and while you're at it, when you get it to mount, go in chroot and also have a look around the system if everything is fine. It did crash really ugly that it dirtied up the filesystem during that last symptom (btw was the hdd led solidly on by any chance?). Maybe hardware issue as well?
