Pekka Ansio Heino - (Brother Firetribe)

May 10, 2008

When BROTHER FIRETRIBE released their False Metal debut album a couple of years ago, something did 'shake' in the European melodic Hard Rock world. I thought of BF as a one-off project (mainly due to guitarist Emppu Vuorinen's duties with NIGHTWISH) but - surprisingly enough - a brand follow-up has now just been released and, in my opinion, Heart Full Of Fire is an even better successor. We caught up with (also LEVERAGE's singer – an equally impressive Finnish 'melodic' act) Pekka Ansio Heino for a little chat and here's what we did write down.

interview

Janne Stark - (Overdrive)

April 18, 2008

Swedish 80s Metal heroes OVERDIRVE's new album caught me by total surprise. Not only did I not expect a new release by this notable 'classic' Metal act, but Let The Music Do The Talking proved to be an excellent 'comeback' CD. Janne Stark speaks for the reasons Metal fans should pay attention to what OVERDRIVE (still) has to say to the Metal world!

interview

Carmine - (Subliminal Fear)

April 1, 2008

Even though melodic Death Metal/Metalcore is a Metal genre I hate for being so common and uninspired, there are a few bands that show that they can really make the difference. The Italian metallers proved that they have the talent to play this kind of music in a more than good way and after my review, I was more than willing for an interview with the band's singer Carmine. Let's see what he had to say about his band's debut album.

interview

Necro - (Necro)

March 22, 2008

NECRO is one of the most weird and experimental artists out there. Even though he is a rapper, I love most of his works, since he has the guts and the talent to really collaborate with well-known Metal artists (not like several bands that think they have perfectly combined Rap with Metal). NECRO was kind enough to spend some time for an interview and answer to my questions in a calm, pissed off and honest tone. If you think Hip Hop has nothing to do with Metal, then don't bother spending your time here. The rest of you, check this guy out and come across the sickest form of Hip Hop ever!

interview

Nobby - (Saint Deamon)

January 30, 2008

When a new band releases its first album, it is obvious that their members are full of excitement and a certainty that there will be noise around their name. Well, SAINT DEAMON - with their first release In Shadows Lost From The Brave - is a band that (in my opinion) will make some heads turn. Nobby, a really talkative person, is giving us some details about the band, their album and the Metal scene in general.

Jason Myers - (Icarus Witch)

January 7, 2008

ICARUS WITCH: Heavy Metal music done in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. Established in in 2004, next year's Roses On Whtile Lace EP was just the teaser; 2005's Capture The Magic full-length did hold a strong warning regarding the 'classic' Metal quintet's intentions, and - anno 2007 - Songs For The Lost does nothing less than reminding us of how fresh some old-school stuff may sound, when you have inspiration in performing the 80's way. Jason Myers (bass), thanks for your time to do this interview!

interview

Waldemar Sorychta - (Enemy Of The Sun)

January 7, 2008

Waldemar Sorychta is a name that should ring a bell in your mind bringing on front the name GRIP INC. Sorychta just formed the new Thrash based band ENEMY OF THE SUN and released the debut Shadows. METAL TEMPLE as always contacted him to get some inside info; enjoy!

Hreidmarr and Valnoir - (Cosa Nostra Club)

December 16, 2007

Strange name, strange sound, strange artwork. But if you give a chance to their music (and you should), it will be difficult to get them out of your head. COSA NOSTRA CLUB are here to stay with their second album, L' Hymne A La Joie, and ready to make some ears bleed. Hreidmarr (vocals) and Valnoir (bass) are answering our questions and talk, among other things, about the past, the present and future of the band. As Hreidmarr said: Lets dance quickly before the Apocalypse.

interview

Kai Hansen - (Gamma Ray)

December 10, 2007

GAMMA RAY recently game to Greece along with the famous 'Hellish Tour' and gave an excellent performance. Unfortunately, the METAL TEMPLE did not succeed in interviewing one of the guys for some unknown reasons. Fortunately the band has an excellent Fan Club (thanks Oliver Theiss) that helped us connect with SPV Records and organize the interview below (thanks Ute Kromrey).

interview

Blake Murphy - (Remain)

November 25, 2007

Canada has been producing great bands from the very beginning of our beloved music genre. In the underground scene you can find some really good bands that are trying (or playing) their best and deserve something more than our attention. One of this bands is REMAIN who have already produced the very good demo CD Died A Hero. Of course Metal Temple seized the opportunity to talk to the guys about their first attempt and more. So, read on and check them out!

interview

Shaun McCoy - (Bobaflex)

November 25, 2007

It is always great to come across a band you didn't even know and you are surprised by its great work and unique sound. The US metallers BOBAFLEX managed to attract my atention instantly with their brand new album Tales From Dirt Town and the band's vocalist/guitarist Shaun McCoy was more than willing to answer a few questions regarding the rough times the band had to go through, as well as his own dirt town...

Matt Drake - (Evile)

October 8, 2007

EVILE's music in their Enter The Grave debut album is so exciting that I couldn't keep away from contacting the band for some extra info. These UK Thrash maniacs are rather ordered to kill us with some kick-ass songs and - to tell you the truth - I feel it should be Flemming Rasmussen's honour working with you, not vice versa, right Matt? Please, enter the Metal Temple catacombs, we've been expecting you!
