Regenesis
Celestial Wizard
“Regenesis” is a smart blend of Heavy, Thrash, and melodic Death Metal with some tracks feature all genre elements at once

Eyes, teeth and bones, the second album from Portuguese death metal band Visceral, is a […]

Before the Years
Remaining Warmth
This was a fantastic journey seen through the eyes of Andrey Novozhilov. Your only real reminder as to the genre is the aggressive drumming and thick background. He lets the melody come out from behind the stage and take the center role, and it is very well crafted, and leaves a lasting impression.
The Speaker Wars
The Speaker Wars
This album was a hit. Sure, it’s old school nostalgia for those of us who are old enough to remember the glory days of Rock ‘N Roll, but that doesn’t take away from its magic. As I mentioned, it sounds like a natural progression of Tom Petty’s music, may he rest in peace, and it’s obvious that he had a special relationship with Stan.
Negative Sun
Heart Attack
This third album from French thrash/groove metallers Heart Attack is truly a testament to the […]
Chaos, Hostility, Murder
Vaneno
This type of album is no-nonsense, no-frills music that just seeks to bludgeon the listener into submission. It met that mark. They aren’t trying to reinvent the wheel either, and although some of their riffs seem familiar, it’s the way they play them than stands out.
Awaken the Gods
Concrete Age
This album really made me feel like I was in Middle Earth, like I was on another planet or in another surreal world full of mysticism and fantasy. This album is packed with great Russian folk music and ambiance and brings some pretty big chills.
The Live Quest
Crystal Viper
If you like bands like COBRA SPELL, BURNING WITCHES and old school WARLOCK, this is right up your alley and the live album is a great way to start as an introduction to the band.
Disenchantment
Wald Krypta
A very good Old School Black Metal release that will make the hearts of fans of the genre beat stronger!
The Great Satan
Trivax
Wow, this Blackened Death Metal/Ethnic Black/Death Metal created a true 'must-have' item for all Metal fans that are proud of being in Metal! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Damn You All to... Hell
The Chris Rolling Squad
Wow, if you're not dead, the work of this French trio will be on you 'must-have' item list for sure!
Monde Vide
Mortuaire
A very good first Doom Death Metal visit from this French quintet.
Bloodpainted Visions of Perpetual Conflict
Martoriator
If one band can rewrite the rules of Black/Death Metal, this Italian duet is this band!
Swallowing the World
Imperishable
Wow, what a great Blackened Death Metal/Death Metal full-length from this Swedish quartet! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Against All Gods
Diabolisches Werk
If you are looking for something innovative, please skip “Against All Gods”, as this will definitely not provide that for you. If, on the other hand, you are looking for a very decent and proper Death/Thrash Metal album, than DIABOLISCHES WERK has been able to give you just that on this, their latest venture.
Burn
Hangfire
I can only conclude that as a debut album “Burn” is something that HANGFIRE can build on for the future. I reckon that when they get even better in their collaboration and write even stronger songs that they will be a very difficult force to ignore.
Iron Age
Primal
My personal take on all of this is that PRIMAL is a very good band that makes very pleasant Heavy Metal music. nothing more, nothing less. But hey, sometimes that is all one needs.
Sunchaser
Signs Of Algorithm
Once the music starts you can be sure that you are listening to a pure and unadulterated Metalcore album. SIGNS OF ALGORITHM goes for broke, and mixes aggression and Heavy Music in a very constructive and positive way.
High Plains Bloodlust
Waxen
I have to conclude that as far as I’m concerned, I really can’t fault WAXEN at all musically, and I think that “High Plains Bloodlust” will appeal to a lot of other musicians alike. It will also be something for those who like their Black Metal not to be too extreme, as you will get the Heavy Metal and Melodic vibes radiating from some of the guitar parts.
Reqviem For The Oppressor
Xenos A.D.
If you look up XENOS A.D. on the Metal Archives it says that they are a Thrash Metal band. That is partly true, but then you will have to say that METALLICA also is a pure Thrash metal band. When that band first came to the scene the were dubbed a Speed Metal band, and I feel that is also what XENOS A.D. really is.
An Ode to the Mountains
Aeon Winds
It was so well crafted, with every detail in tow, and it flowed from start to finish like a river winding its way through a mountain path. It was firm and aggressive enough for all Black Metal fans to enjoy, but also had enough other elements to spice up the nine-course meal to your taste.
Apex Violator
Valdrin
I dub the album “thinking man’s Black Metal,” because the compositions are not only frightening, but they come from four talented musicians who know how to tell a story with their music, and tell it well. With each song, you are lost further and further into the album, until you take that fateful step when it’s too late to go back. In many ways, you don’t mind, as your innate evil surfaces and pushes all reason and humanity back down.
Harbringers
Byzantine
In a world populated by a metric ton of bands aspiring to be the most original, and often something that they are not, BYZANTINE remind the music world that were things began is often where they return. I am embarrassed to say that I was not familiar with the band before completing this review, but now they have a new fan.
Shape of Ash
Leonov
The EP was indeed a slow burn, and the kind that sinks in before you know it and scalds you. I am intrigued to hear more from the band, as four songs were just a teaser, but it was a nice teaser.
Winds of Time
Wings of Steel
Okay dear reader’s, I will get right to the point, I love WINGS OF STEEL and they have just released a new video single “Winds of Time” from their upcoming and highly anticipated new album scheduled for release later this year.
A Faraway World
Orpharion
“A Faraway World” is a dark album, driven by a smart mixture of heavy guitar riffing, orchestral arrangements, and dark but catchy melodies which are melancholic at times
Signs Of The End
Reject The Sickness
“Signs Of The End” has pace, aggression, punishing guitar riffs, relentless drumming, but is also melodic with dark melodies and features some melancholy in the melodies at times
Septum
Moths
This was a strange album, but many Progressive albums are. The clean vocals sounded ritualistic at times, as if they came from a shamanka, while the harsh vocals provided an aggressive bite. There was also a steady line of psychedelica running through the songs. This is an intriguing band that I would love to hear more from.
V Pt. 1 : Unhallowed
Pythia
I still believe EPICA are still at the top of the food chain in genre with VISIONS OF ATLANTIS with a close second but a band ,like PYTHIA has the real potential of being a power player in the genre and really start to make a name for themselves in the Symphonic Power Metal genre.
The Eyes of Power
Signum Regis
A 15 year old album that doesn't seem far off from the very best of the Power Metal generation of the last decade yet with a neo-classical twist that still doesn't get old.
Echoes from the Void
Skräcken
“Echoes from the Void” bears repeating. A lot. Sofie-Lee’s vocals are spectacular, and the band is extremely tight.
Under the Spell
Morbyda
MORBYDA’s debut “Under the Spell” blends the raw energy and anger of betrayed youth with the evil machinations of an exterminating angel.
The Twilight Affliction
The Lucidia Project
The album showed promise and potential, but didn’t quite meet the mark. Too many of the songs had a similar delivery, that was melancholy and sad. The harsh vocals helped break them up to an extent, but their placement wasn’t the best in terms of timing. This is a band to keep an eye on, because they have all of the elements to be successful, they just aren’t quite there yet.
Pillars of Creation
Encelado
This debut EP from the Italian death metal band/project Encelado, is named after Enceladus, a […]
