review
Rise Of The Wood - Discharge
August 14, 2025
Let me start off with a bit of history first. In 2015 in the province of South Holland in the Netherlands a group of musicians got together and started a new band, which they baptised as RISE OF THE WOOD. And yes, if you are of a dirty mind, that could be exactly why this name was chosen.

The Great White Nothing - Passage I Melancholia
August 14, 2025
With “Passage I Melancholia”, we tell the story of a man leaving his home and known world behind in search of solace in the most unforgiving of places. This album dives deeply into the stories of 20th century Antarctic pioneers, exploring their hardships and fervour. This is not a concept album per se, but we drew inspiration from historical personal accounts and the desolate landscapes of the Antarctic. We took that awe-inspiring, freezing abyss and brought it to life.
review
Vicious Rumors - The Devil's Asylum
August 12, 2025
This is US Metal as it should be played; with conviction and dedication. The guitars really enhance each other’s power whilst still being distinguishable individually. As for singer Chalice, he can reach heights that are almost unnatural for a bloke.
review
Black Water Rising - The Edge
August 12, 2025
I wouldn’t call myself a Stoner Rock lover or connoisseur, but I do love old fashioned Rock and Metal, and even with the contemporary sound that is to be found on “The Edge” I hear enough that makes me travel back in time when everything was done manually, all those expensive and complicated gadgets weren’t available.
review
Wolfskull - Midnite Masters
August 9, 2025
There is nothing wrong with what WOLFSKULL is playing on “Midnite Masters”. What will help some people is that the voice of singer Pete 9 has a similar sound as out little giant Glenn Danzig has, only with a little more variation in his timbre.
review
Ursawrath – Emergence
August 9, 2025
How high I feel that URSAWRATH can climb. I really have no idea. They haven’t been together that long (I think), and if they can produce this just two years after their original demo, they might have a future.
review
Biolence - Violent Obliteration
August 9, 2025
Everything that BIOLENCE does on “Violent Obliteration”. has a nice ring to it, the songs are well versed in changing tempo and intensity, and not once during the whole listening experience do feel that they are out of tune or out of sync.
review
Ashes of The Sun - Gods With Machines
August 9, 2025
Well, let me first off tell you that this is not Extreme Metal in any way or form. No, on “Gods With Machines” you will hear simple Heavy metal and Rock, intertwined with slower and more emotional musical parts to heighten the diversity and widen the range of musical paths travelled.
review
Devilpriest - Where I Am the Chalice, Be Thou the Blood
August 5, 2025
Polish Metal Scene has a new contender to the throne. I present to you Devilpriest!
review
Void - Forbidden Morals
August 4, 2025
Musically there is one thing for sure; if you like it straight forward without any side-tracking you should skip “Forbidden Morals” as it is like an ADHD patient that has consumed too much caffeine.
review
Verdalack - Force From the Grave
August 4, 2025
The riffs, breaks and tempo changes are available in abundance with VERDALACK. And the tempo usually is quite high, to the fact that I was almost considering to call this music High Speed Metal.
review
Martyr - Dark Believer
August 4, 2025
After their very impressive 2022 album “Planet Metalhead” they have more inspiration and now are giving us “Dark Believer”, their sixth studio album in total. And if you have heard or do own any of their former albums, I can put your mind at ease, as MARTYR have taken off where they left it all last time
review
Accvsed - Dealers Of Doom
August 1, 2025
Somehow German Metalcore bands have the real ability to sound so angry that you feel that they are in danger of coughing out their intestines in the process. This is certainly the case with ACCVSED from Wiesbaden, who have deemed it time to try and through us off our normal behaviour and disturb the peace and quiet with their debut album “Dealers Of Doom”.
review
Divni San - Dreamlike Tales
August 1, 2025
What’s in a name. I just can’t envision what DIVNI SAN should mean. If you look it up on your AI, it will tell you that it comes from the Slavic languages and means something like Marvelous Dream. What I can tell you is that it is a Heavy Metal band from Brussels, Belgium and was founded in 2021 by ex-members of MIDRANGE.
review
Iron Spell - From the Grave
August 1, 2025
The songs on “From the Grave” themselves are all very pleasant, have that ability get you tapping your foot, nodding your head, but also have the diversity and differences plus the breaks that make them all sound just that different from the other ones, while maintain the cohesion in sound that will make you realise that yes, you still are listening to the same IRON SPELL throughout the whole album.
review
Pulpit Vomit - Hospital Lens
July 22, 2025
What surprises me most is that, except for the opening song, I was quite at ease with all the music on offer here. It might be an Extreme Metal album, but I feel that “Hospital Lens” has a lot going for it in the short time it has to impress.
review
Heathen's Eye - Port Inspiro
July 22, 2025
HEATHEN’S EYE needs to change their current social status from a Project into Real Band. Keep the Melodic Metal association, but most of all, stay together and keep on doing what you are doing now.
review
Gods of Tomorrow - Gods Of Tomorrow
July 22, 2025
What does help when you play Melodic Metal is having a good singer, and in that respect GODS OF TOMORROW doesn’t need to think back or reconsider, as Felipe Del Valle has a very pleasant voice that is capable of enhancing just those emotions that the music is asking for.
review
Eden Circus – Irrlicht
July 22, 2025
If one thing is clear for ma as the reviewer, it is that EDEN CIRCUS has managed to put ten very impressive songs on “Irrlicht”.
review
Horror Of Horrors - Sounds Of Eerie (Reissue)
July 16, 2025
The Old School Death Metal that is being played by HORROR OF HORRORS on "Sounds Of Eerie" is straight forward no-nonsense music without strange breaks, difficult rhythms or weird sounds.
review
Horror Of Horrors - Rust, Flesh and Dust (Reissue)
July 16, 2025
“Rust, Flesh and Dust” was not expected at all in 2017, as HORROR OF HORRORS weren’t active at that time. But after listening to this album, I must admit that I am glad that they did release this one, and that I am equally happy with VIC Records for giving this one a second chance.
review
Patriarchs In Black – Home
July 16, 2025
There are no bad songs on “Home”. PATRIARCHS IN BLACK have been able to keep ascending and get better with every album they do.
review
The Medea Project - Kharon
July 16, 2025
Musically THE MEDEA PROJECT do just what I was expecting, which is mixing the Doom Metal elements with Sludge Metal parts and then dribbling their Gothic Metal gravy over all of it. And that does give me some very interesting songs and soundscapes that take just under 40 minutes on “Kharon”.
review
Six Feet Deeper - Prayer By the Edge
July 8, 2025
Hard Rock with a sometimes Bluesy undertone, whilst on other occasions it will be more Rock or even Metal. What does become quite clear is that we are dealing with a very talented group of musicians within SIX FEET DEEPER. They are able to write good songs, that have a bucketload of emotions paired with very good instrumentals.
review
Hammer – Trapped
July 8, 2025
But let’s get back to “Trapped”. It is Extreme Metal indeed, because if I would have to try and classify it in any other way I wouldn’t have been able to, even if my life depended on it. Yes, you will get Groove Metal, Death Metal, Punk, Hardcore, Grindcore and Sludge in there somewhere, but none of those fit the bill, so by branding it Extreme Metal the band is talking it easy on us listeners and reporters.
review
White Widdow - White Widdow (Reissue)
July 1, 2025
As for “White Widdow” (2010), I can tell you that it sounds rather good from start to finish. The musicians in the band are very capable, know where to play but also when to either tone it down or even keep quiet.
review
White Widdow - Serenade (Reissue)
July 1, 2025
Only a year after the release of the WHITE WIDDOW debut album “White Widdow” in 2010, they were back with their sophomore album “Serenade”. Like the debut (and their other albums) it was originally released through AOR Heaven. Now, some 14 years later, Pride & Joy Music Classixx has taken the time to re-release the first three, and added a bonus track on each one.
review
White Widdow - Crossfire (Reissue)
July 1, 2025
Four years after their debut album “White Widdow” (2010), and three years sophomore album “Serenade” (2011), WHITE WIDDOW came back again by releasing another studio album, this time named “Crossfire” (2014). And after those first two albums the band needed to pull out all the stops to make sure they improved what was already there.
review
Degenerate - Rituals Of Rage
June 30, 2025
As for the songs on “Rituals Of Rage”, they are all within the range that is between good to outstanding. None of them are anything less that good, but also none of them outshine the others by being more than outstanding. To me that shows that DEGENERATE has consistency in their song writing and playing.
review
Nightbearer – Defiance
June 30, 2025
There is no mistaking the fact that NIGHTBEARER has decided to add Metalcore influences into their Death Metal, creating their own brand of Deathcore. And although I wouldn’t consider myself a fan of this musical genre., I am thoroughly enjoying “Defiance” as an album.
review
Prisoner - Kill The King
June 30, 2025
The musical genre of this PRISONER album I am listening to is Heavy Metal. Some will call it NWOTHM, but I feel that I need to add NWOBHM in order to complete the description.
review
Turian - Blood Quantum Blues
June 30, 2025
What the hell am I listening to right now? Yes, I know it is a band called TURIAN, a Seattle band that makes Metal Hardcore mixed with Noise Rock. I also know that “Blood Quantum Blues” is their fourth release, and according to their Bandcamp site the first one where they really feel free.
review
Circus Of Rock – Hellfire
June 26, 2025
If you are interested in listening to “Hellfire”, please give it time to reach your brain and after a while, your heart. If you are a Melodic Rock lover, you can’t and won’t go wrong with this album, as it houses everything that you are wishing for in a Melodic Rock album.
review
Phantomy - From the Wild
June 25, 2025
If you are looking for a good time and feel good record you can do a lot worse than trying out PHANTOMY, as “From the Wild” will have you dancing, twisting and turning in no time. So, you will have a smile on your face before you know it.
review
Front Row Warriors - Running Out Of Time
June 25, 2025
The slower songs on “Running Out Of Time” are all okay, but the faster ones are the real stars for me. That is also where singer Elkie Gee gets to show off her wares, where she is able to combine her singing with what almost sounds like shouting, but which is done in such a way that it demonstrates how powerful her voice really is.
review
Diabolisches Werk - Against All Gods
June 18, 2025
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.
