Album Review
review
Dying Angel - Angels Rising
December 19, 2024
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.
review
Ariah – Ariah
December 19, 2024
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.
review
Earthburner - Permanent Dawn
December 17, 2024
From the urban wastelands of Chicagoland comes a torrent of putrid aggression with a disgusting display of deathgrind
review
Chained to the Dead - A Gruesome Encounter
December 17, 2024
Influenced by old shool death that is tinged with hard rock elements from old New Jersey
review
Recidivist - Madness Malformed
December 11, 2024
Unapologetic raw death meatal from SLC
review
Van Zant - Always Look Up
December 9, 2024
The lyrical content of “Always Look Up” makes it very clear about what has happened with the VAN ZANT brothers in their musical as well as family lives. They are all written and sung in plain English, without mincing words or intentions. What it boils down to is that after some 20 years of chasing their dreams they found that it was time to return to the beliefs they had before that time.
review
Sunstorm - Restless Fight
December 9, 2024
You would think that I have a membership for reviewing albums where Ronnie Romero is the singer. But I haven’t, it just turns out that he is singing on a lot of albums that I consider interesting.
review
Ozora – Litanie
December 9, 2024
After extensively listening to “Litanie” I can only say that I am impressed with the OZORA and their musicality. Especially in the heavier department they are a force to be reckoned with.
review
Axetasy - Withering Tides
December 9, 2024
This is a good Speed/Thrash Metal album. When it comes to AXETASY I can’t just name those two musical styles separate, as they are interwoven in such a way in every song that it is almost impossible to not see them as a Siamese twin.
review
Apocalypse – Pandaemonium
December 9, 2024
APOCALYPSE wants to mix Black, Death and Epic Metal and try to sound different on every album. Whether he has done that or not is not for me to say, as “Pandaemonium” is the first time I ever listened to APOCALYPSE.
review
Damaged – Under Siege
December 1, 2024
I can’t help but think that if DAMAGED would have had just that bit of luck, they could have made quite the impression, because I really like what I am hearing. The songs are strong, powerful and full of variety without ever losing face of the fact that they need to imprint themselves on the audience. And they do. “Under Siege” is good stuff.
review
Explorer – Chainsaw Anthems
December 1, 2024
I can only say that I am still enjoying listening to “Chainsaw Anthems”, as it does give me an insight onto another piece of the Heavy Metal history of the Lowlands. And that is something I as a real Metalhead will always treasure.
review
Raptore – Renaissance
December 1, 2024
Yes, this is very much eighties-oriented Metal, but by making sure that they have gotten a proper production, they sound good in current times as well, without becoming too contemporary.
review
Sleepless – Through Endless Black
December 1, 2024
If you are one of those Metalheads who does dare to try something new without having to tread unknown territories, you should listen to this SLEEPLESS album. “Through Endless Black” will not disappoint you.
review
Steel Inferno - Rush Of Power
December 1, 2024
If you are able to stand or sit still while you are listening to “Rush Of Power” you are either dead on your way there. I don’t care if you like this kind of Speed Metal or not, this will get your juices flowing and your body moving.
review
Mercyless - Those Who Reign Below
November 28, 2024
With over 30 years of pure unapologetic death comes a vile display of blasphemy
review
Aries Descendant - From The Ashes Of Deceit
November 27, 2024
As soon as the intro “From The Ashes Of Deceit” starts you are expecting warriors to stand up and point their sword to the skies and start shouting about True Metal.
review
Atreyu - The Pronoia Sessions
November 27, 2024
The music is all acoustic, but still just (or even more) impressive as the originals are. But because they are all different, you should imagine the word ‘Reimagined’ behind every one of them.
review
Thanatos - Four Decades Of Death
November 27, 2024
I can only applaud Agonia Records for releasing “Four Decades Of Death”. Plus, we need to thank THANATOS themselves for rerecording some of their songs and adding the 2006 and 2018 demos to finish the album.
review
The Watcher - Out Of The Dark
November 27, 2024
This is NWOBHM based, Doom inspired Heavy Metal with enough oomph to keep your mind occupied and working for over 36 minutes.
review
Decayed Existence - The Beginning Of Sorrows
November 20, 2024
With over 30 years of experience Decayed Existence is bringing you the stench of death that is infused with the elements of groove undertones.
review
High Warden - Astral Iron
November 18, 2024
As for rating “Astral Iron”, that is not too difficult. This is rather good put together, and there is not one time that you get bored whilst listening to what HIGH WARDEN is shoving our way. And as for making their music the centre of attention, I have to admit that with “Astral Iron” they have made the right choice. It is quite a pleasure to listen to the album.
review
Tantrum - No Place For The Damned
November 18, 2024
TANTRUM plays Heavy metal with Melodic and Speed Metal influences thrown in for good measure. It does give them a certain kind of sound.
review
Tygers Of Pan Tang - Animal Instinct (Reissue)
November 18, 2024
Since “Animal Instinct” was released, TYGERS OF PAN TANG have avoided giving us sub standard music. Every album since then has hit the mark in quality and intensity.
review
Warm Gadget – Sorrows
November 18, 2024
As for the music, it is exactly I would expect from an Industrial band that has their feet firmly in the nineties like WARM GADGET. No new found experimantation, no Extreme Metal sidelines, Simple and effective, with hard beating drums, good heavy bass playing, piercing guitar riffs and a very disturbing voice.
review
Whisky Of Blood - Diablesse Of Revolution
November 18, 2024
WHISKY OF BLOOD writes and plays simple and straight forward music without any difficult or elaborate parts. This is like an arrow. And I have to say that “Diablesse Of Revolution” is full of very pleasant songs that will make your life just that much easier than it was.
review
Brothers Of Metal – Fimbulvinter
November 12, 2024
This is the Melodic Viking version of MANOWAR and SABATON with just about every sort of Metal thrown in when appropriate. And even though it goes over the top on a regular basis, I just can’t stop listening to this.
review
Oceans – Happy
November 12, 2024
OCEANS is classed as Modern Metal by us at Metal Temple. When you look at the Metal Archives site it says that the band plays Post-Metal/Metalcore. I have to say that they are both right about what these musicians from Berlin in Germany and Vienna in Austria are producing on “Happy”.
review
Violent Definition - Progressive Obsoletion
November 12, 2024
Let’s take the bull by the horns; this is good stuff! These Greeks know how to play write, play, record and release Thrash Metal.
review
Carnosus - Wormtales
November 12, 2024
A disgusting display of melodic thech death in all the right ways hailing from Sweden
review
Trapeze - Lost Tapes Vol. 2
November 9, 2024
What makes TRAPEZE so impressive is the fact that without exemption every musician associated with or playing on the songs is a world class one. It doesn’t matter who was playing, Mel Galley set the path and the rest would follow, whilst still being allowed to put their own stamp on the parts they were playing.
review
Invasion – Invasion II
November 9, 2024
“Invasion II” is a very good album, from start to finish, with good musicianship and very good songs.
review
Vicious Rain - There Is Beauty In Letting Go
November 6, 2024
A torrent of Swiss Post-Hardcore blasing out of the town of Baden with emotion
review
Turbokill – Champion
November 5, 2024
“Champion” is my first encounter with TURBOKILL. And one thing becomes very clear from the very first listen; these guys know how to write and play bloody good riffs. Rather high paced, very intense and drenched with class.
review
Shining – Feberdrömmar
November 5, 2024
New album? Well, that’s not exactly true, as the original version of this album, called “8½: Feberdrömmar I Vaket Tillstånd” is from 2013. It was an in-betweener for the band between albums. Apparently a good one, as it is being rereleased.
review
Salem UK - Outer Limits
November 5, 2024
For those who are not familiar with the music SALEM UK plays, we are talking fast paced Melodic Heavy Metal. Whether you listen to the 2016 album “Dark Days” or anything later than that, it is easy recognisable as SALEM UK. That is not only because of the kind of music that is played, but is also due to the very distinctive and rather high pitched voice of singer Simon Saxby.
