review
Toxikull – Turbulence
April 10, 2026
I can’t fault any song on “Turbulence”, and for over 39 minutes I am transported into a world where I am floating between a fantasy world and the real one. TOXIKULL make the transitions between the two feel seamless, the effort painless. Even if they do a power ballad, “Dying Star”, they have the ability to keep the power intact and build on it. They’re touring soon, so be sure to be there. TOXIKULL needs to be as massive as can be.
review
Lynx - Trinity Of Suns
April 7, 2026
LYNX is a quite comfortable band to listen to, with good musicians that know their stuff, and with Amy Zine they have a singer in their midst that might not be top of the bill, but does her job in a more than satisfactory manner. “Trinity Of Suns” is a decent, solid and very reliable album musically as well as vocally.
review
Midryasi’s Kult – Italian Dark Sound
March 16, 2026
“Italian Dark Sound” holds together fairly well, and while it wasn’t terribly diverse it does have a few unexpected twists.
review
Barbarian - Reek of God
March 10, 2026
Apparently BARBARIAN plays Speed/Thrash/Black Metal. Well, that is true. And if that will make you think of a project like MIDNIGHT, I wouldn’t blame you, as “Reek of God” does fit in the same ballpark. The big difference between the two being that where MIDNIGHT has more of an early VENOM vibe, you will be hard pressed not to compare BARBARIAN to a band like MOTÖRHEAD, mixed with early EXCITER.
review
Venthiax – Rites of Ra
March 10, 2026
“Rites of Ra” is as brutal as it is fast, reminiscent of the 80’s though as relevant to our day and age as ever.
review
Karloff - Revered by Death
March 6, 2026
Revered by Death" is an okay album, but let's not parade around claiming to play all the genres all the time, ya hear me Karloff?
review
Savage Sword - Demo 2026
January 27, 2026
The production isn't great, and I love it.
review
Pagan Altar - Lords of Hypocrisy (Reissue)
January 5, 2026
PAGAN ALTAR might not have conquered the world with this album, I do believe that, judging by what I am hearing on “Lords of Hypocrisy”, they did and do deserve a whole lot more credit than they have had throughout their career. And in that respect, you have to applaud Dying Victims Productions for pushing the boat out by airing this album for a second time.
review
Sacrifice – Tears
December 16, 2025
If you ask me, this Japanese version of SACRIFICE should have been at least as big worldwide as the Canadian Thrash Metal band with the same name. There can’t be any doubt at all that these guys were capable of writing and recording bloody good music. On “Tears” that gives us over 44 minutes of beautiful Heavy Metal.
review
Speedclaw - Stardust
December 12, 2025
Even though “Stardust” will never be my favourite album of all time, it is one that I will treasure and enjoy when I hear it passing me by. It just confirms to me that SPEEDCLAW have done good in choosing this as their musical direction.
review
Not Fragile - One Way To Glory
December 2, 2025
I have also reviewed their debut EP “Who Dares Wins”, and you’ll find that as the one next to this one on the METAL TEMPLE site. What I get from listening to their debut EP as well as this compilation album is that NOT FRAGILE has been very constant in the quality of their songs. Nowhere are they superb or out-of-this-world brilliant, but neither can you catch them being subpar at any time at all.
review
Not Fragile - Who Dares Wins
December 2, 2025
I have to say that as a debut you can do a lot worse than “Who Dares Wins”, while at the same time it will be hard to do much better.
review
Fate's Hand - Steel, Fire & Ice
November 20, 2025
I can tell you straight away that the production of the music on “Steel, Fire & Ice” is more than adequate, making what is being played very clear, transparent and therefore all the instruments are easily distinguishable. The riffing that is used is clear, heavy and to the point, as you expect from an Australian band; they usually don’t beat around the bush.
review
Armoured Knight - The Quest For The Sacred Melody
October 16, 2025
“The Quest For The Sacred Melody” has speed and momentum, as the songs are rather good. Yes, this has all been done before, but somehow the musicality of the tunes does give you that edge that makes you listen just that little sharper, that piques your interest whereas others just don’t.
review
Revenge - Night Danger
October 16, 2025
REVENGE is a Heavy Metal band in the old fashioned sense, but they are able to spice up their sound by adding as many Speed Metal parts and rhythms as possible. It gives the music on “Night Danger” a lively and inspiring sound.
review
Det - Destructive Elite Terror
October 7, 2025
The songs all have that kind of vibe that will remind you of bands like MIDNIGHT and early AGENT STEEL, only a little (or if you will, a lot) rougher around the edges. It sounds like DET have decided to leave all their tunes as pure and unedited as possible. And even though I would liked to have a better production, I have to admit that the way that this is done really fits the bill.
review
Temptress - Catch the Endless Dawn
August 27, 2025
A great Old School Metal release from this Italian trio, but a better production is needed on the next time.
review
Sadistic Goatmessiah - Violence
August 11, 2025
Highly enjoyable this one. The band name and the album cover pretty much say it all. This is unadulterated raw, fundamental Black and Thrash the way that Satan meant it to be.
review
Naevus – Back Home
August 4, 2025
“Back Home” is a helluva album by a helluva a band. A must-have for Stoner Doom fans.
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
Angel Of Damnation - Ethereal Blasphemy
July 16, 2025
It's a case of 'the-cover-isn't-telling-the-truth', because here you'll find a very good Doom/Heavy Metal release.
review
Lucille – Dawn Of Destruction
July 7, 2025
LUCILLE deliver traditional Thrash Metal at high quality and intensity. “Dawn Of Destruction” has pace, aggression, flesh-ripping guitar riffing, and chilling melodies
review
Skräcken – Echoes from the Void
June 15, 2025
“Echoes from the Void” bears repeating. A lot. Sofie-Lee’s vocals are spectacular, and the band is extremely tight.
review
Morbyda – Under the Spell
June 15, 2025
MORBYDA’s debut “Under the Spell” blends the raw energy and anger of betrayed youth with the evil machinations of an exterminating angel.

Hyena - About Rock and Roll
May 15, 2025
A good Heavy Metal act from Peru, but they must evolve things, especially on the production.

review
Venator – Psychodrome
April 22, 2025
The songs themselves are varying from okay up and until rather good. You don’t expect to hear anything new or life changing, and you won’t, but you also won’t be disappointed by the quality level of the songs that VENATOR are ladling upon our Metal plate.
review
Pagan Altar - Never Quite Dead
April 8, 2025
The songs on “Never Quite Dead” vary from decent to good, the sound is very recognisable and the musicianship is quite clear and obvious.
review
Gallower - Vengeance & Wrath
March 20, 2025
A Black/Thrash Metal act that has potential, but that needs to evolve a bit more.
review
Sinner Rage - Powerstrike
March 14, 2025
This Spanish NWOTHM quintet is really impressive!
review
Mean Mistreater - Do or Die
February 27, 2025
Wow, what a great and fine Heavy Metal release!
review
Armory - Black Star
February 14, 2025
A fine 2-tracks EP from this Swedish Speed/Heavy Metal quintet.
review
Scumripper - For A Few Fixes More
February 11, 2025
It has been ten years since the Finnish band SCUMRIPPER, hailing from Lapeenranta, Etelä – Karjala / Mikkeli, Etelä – Savo, has come together to make a whole lot of noise. The music they make is a mix of Black, Death and Thrash Metal. In just under half an hour the band lets us enjoy how they feel their Metal should sound.
review
Pandemic - Phantoms
December 15, 2024
“Phantoms” is a blast. There’s a bit of nod to early Thrash with a Hardcore Punk overlay, but the Blackened element took it over the top for me.
