Fenriz
Darkthrone
When you are the Drummer, co-songwriter and co-vocalist for one of the most important bands in metal history that is an incredibly heavy burden to carry.
Fenriz
is a rare breed as
DARKTHRONE
are legends in the metal world but he seems content to make music for himself and is not bothered with fame and his place in the metal pantheon.
When your resume includes
"Transylvania Hunger"
,
"A Blaze in the Northern Sky", and "Under a Funeral Moon"
you have a band that has personally created the blueprint for every black metal release that has existed since. With 2006s
"The Cult Is Alive"
the band shifted its sound and embraced more influences from
CELTIC FROST
,
MOTORHEAD
and added undeniable punk elements. To the dismay of some, the band has not looked back since and have left their black metal beginnings behind.
DARKTHRONE'S
latest opus,
"The Underground Resistance"
released through Britain's
Peaceville Records
is a step further away from their original sound. Adapting even more influences from
CELTIC FROST
and now bringing in some early speed metal leanings like early
AGENT STEEL.
The hardcore fans of their early material that are holding out a return to the glory days can look elsewhere as
DARKTHRONE
are remaining true to themselves and are playing a style of metal that they prefer and what a glorious style it is.

Hakan Stuvemark
Skineater

SKINEATER
'S debut

IN THY DREAMS
and a short stint in
VICIOUS
,
Steinmetal
had a chance to talk with guitarist
Hakan Stuvemark
about their latest release and how the band was able to come together.

ASYLUM PYRE
has just released their sophomore record
"Fifty Years Later"
through
Massacre Records

about how she is adapting to her new role as lead vocalist of
ASYLUM PYRE
.
Chewy
Voivod
Replacing a legendary guitar player like

's
Chewy
has stepped into irreplaceable shoes and taken over the guitar duties. On the release of their latest album

Chewy
on his role within
VOIVOD
.
Leve Laiter

Swedish rockers

Mattias Bärjed
about all things
