Withering Shine (...into Oblivion)
Mindreaper
MINDREAPER is a melodic death metal band from Germany, that formed in 2001. Their latest […]
Nova Atlantis
KingCrown
As far as power metal goes, this is a simple but effective album that provides a solid romp through their magical brand of soaring metal. If you don’t like power metal, “
Nova Atlantis
” won’t change your mind. If you are a power metal fan, you’ll get some mileage out of this but don’t expect it to blow your mind.
Metalation
Paragon
There is no doubt what kind of music PARAGON plays. It is Teutonic Heavy Metal through and through. This is just as German as the Oktoberfest, Currywurst and Bratwurst. “Metalation” is the fourteenth studio album the band has made since 1994, and I have to say that it is a belter.
The Master Is Inside
Mystyc Blade
That feeling that you will get from listening to “The Master Is Inside” is one of discovery, as if you have found another diamond in the rough. And yes, maybe you have if you like what MYSTYC BLADE is treating us to.
Guardians Of Time
Empires Of Eden
This is Epic Orchestral Heavy Metal with a lot of external influences that ensure that variety and diversity is rather high on the list of achievements when it comes to “Guardians Of Time”.
God Of Pain
Deimos' Dawn
There are four contributions by DEIMO’S DAWN themselves. And they do what it says on the tin. They Thrash, they make your head bang, they give as good as it gets.
Year of the Cobra
Year of the Cobra
This is Doom Metal, make no mistake, but the duo fuses smooth vocals harmonies and some catchy moments into the album. The result is a fresh take on the genre, as well as an album that keeps moving, and keeps shifting, refusing to be set down in one pace for too long.
Corroding Soul
Corroding Soul
What truly elevates this album, however, is its ability to maintain its emotional weight throughout. Even in its most melodious moments, there’s a simmering undercurrent of tension and despair, a reminder of the genre's uncompromising roots. It’s an exhilarating, transformative experience that proves melody and aggression can coexist in perfect harmony.
Choices Made in Anger
V8 Wankers
Good Hard Rock with attitude and humour.
Birna
Wardruna
Has there ever been a bad WARDRUNA album? That’s a rhetorical question, and the answer is ‘no.’ And so it remains with "Birna."
Ghostwound
Ghostwound
“Ghostwound” is a psychedelic trip down a wandering road which somehow winds back on itself, in the end depositing you where you left off and enticing you to head out yet again.
A Fountain of Anguish is Gone
Tigguo Cobauc
This was a fantastic album, and it brought Doom to a whole new level for me, because the band was bold, and unafraid to explore uncharted territory, while keeping their roots strong.
Saturnalia
Selvans
This is very personal music, but the hardened elements will please the listeners as much as the melodic ones, and as I mentioned, the band makes good use of emotion, swells, and crescendos to give the album a sweeping and ominous sound.
King Of Gods
Aeon Gods
“King Of Gods” could be the start of a promising Power Metal career of AEON GODS as they are a band with potential
Witch Hunt Road To Vengeance
Viperwitch
“Witch Hunt: Road To Vengeance” combines traditional New Wave of Heavy Metal with a theatric concept and post-apocalyptic features
Starbound (Reissue)
Osukaru
The last album in the trilogy of Osukaru reissues in the Pride & Joy Classix […]
Spirit Invictus
Triumpher
The songs they have written are all of a very decent to good quality, with good rhythms, impressive sounds and most of all convincing atmosphere. You can really feel yourself standing with TRIUMPHER and heading into battle.
Insurrection
Overt Enemy
Hot damn, who is this trying to blow me away from the get go? It is OVERT ENEMY, and opening song “Resinated” has a very strong riff and an immense intensity that makes you take notice, whether you want to or not.
Angels Rising
Dying Angel
Hailing from Wehrheim, Hesse in Germany we have DYING ANGEL, a band that has been around since 2019 and plays Heavy Metal, with a strong connection to the NWOBHM era.
Ariah
Ariah
I am quite smitten with “Ariah” and would have liked to hear more of these guys. I am glad that Someoddpilot Records took the plunge and decided to rerelease this 35-year-old gem.
Moþir
Forndom
I appreciate the minimalist approach to the music, because it allows the layers to be stripped off and the core is left for the listener to enjoy. The core here is both somber and prophetic, and it hints at a world we all know is coming, but we push it down deep inside to avoid the confrontation.
Anthropophagy (Reissue)
Vulcano
This remastered verson of this classic from this Brazilian Black/Thrash legendary act is really great!
Forthcoming Age of the Reaper
Total Hate
A fine Old School Black Metal release, in the vein of the Second Wave of Black Metal!
Extinction Ritual
Hate Angel
Wow, what a great limitis killer on Blackened Death Metal this trio is!
Forged in Black (Remastered MMXXIV)
Forged in Black
This reissue of this UK-based Heavy Metal quintet is a fine opportunity for older and younger fans.
Something Eldritch and Macabre
August Moon
Even if it's late, this Finnish Technical Death Metal trio released an excellent full-length!
The Pyre Aflame
Abyssal Frost
Wow, what great first full-length is delivered by this North American Blackened Death Metal band!
Echoes
Nationwide
This was a solid AOR album, that featured great vocals, a crunchy backing of instruments, energy and enthusiasm, and confidence on the part of the band. The hooks were memorable, and catchy, and this is an album that you can crank up to 10.
Deathly Pale
Parusight
This was a fairly diverse offering of Black Metal that stayed within the lanes of the genre but did not just rely on old, re-hashed formulas of old. Oliver worked in some melancholy, some keyboards, and some ambiance into the songs, and it breathed new life into a genre that has become overrun with artists lately.
Permanent Dawn
Earthburner
From the urban wastelands of Chicagoland comes a torrent of putrid aggression with a disgusting display of deathgrind
A Gruesome Encounter
Chained to the Dead
Influenced by old shool death that is tinged with hard rock elements from old New Jersey
Sanguine
Benthic
This was a good album. The band used a lot of different elements in their brand of music, including groovy riffs, both clean and harsh vocals, some Core, some Grunge, even some Alternative.
Blandede Meninger Og Aforismer
Myrholt
All in all,
Myrholt
’s “
Blandede Meninger Og Aforismer
,” is a wonderfully balanced album between two different approaches to black metal and effectively combines them together with interesting songs.
Raw Illumination
Grave With A View
GRAVE WITH A VIEW
have upped their game with “
Raw Illumination
,” and have solidified themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the black metal scene. This is a strong sophomore album from a band that shows endless promise because they thrive in the endless void.
Whispers
Strangers
Good first steps.
Gehenna
Twisted Mist
I was a bit leery about Death Metal and Folk being mixed. The melodic tendencies of Death, however, make the pairing surprisingly compelling. “Gehenna” by TWISTED MIST. Strongly recommended for Pagans and Judeo-Christians alike.
