review
Iron Brigade – Ill Fated Voyage
March 24, 2026
“Ill Fated Voyage” is a mixture of traditional Power Metal and classical Heavy Metal. Heavy Metal inspirations come all from IRON MAIDEN and this heavily affects the guitar riffing, the melodies, and the lead guitar solos including the famous twin guitars
review
Ravenspell – Obsidian King
March 24, 2026
With a name like RAVENSPELL I thought this was going to be a Symphonic Metal band. They ended up being more in the CIRITH UNGOL tradition, which is even better.
review
Necrosexual – Road to Rubble
March 24, 2026
Very middle of the road as far as intensity and maybe a bit over the top with the performative essence of it. Felt like an amped up Beetlejuice.
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
Thunderor - Bleed For It
March 13, 2026
Musically there is no other way to describe THUNDEROR than as a band that has their ducks In a row. Even though they change direction ever so often, they do make themselves sound very coherent.
review
DAZR - Another Lie (single)
March 10, 2026
Like the hot girl at the bar that teases by showing just enough skin to keep me buying her drinks, DAZR gives us just enough skin with their latest single “Another Lie” to keep me buying them drinks in anticipation of their upcoming album,…yep, I fall for it every time.
review
King Heavy – Atlantic Reborn
March 10, 2026
For existing KING HEAVY fans, “Atlantic Reborn” provides a unique perspective into the band’s past with rare cuts; for new fans it offers a snapshot from each album.
review
The Pat Catalano Project - Paper Crowns
March 4, 2026
Every once in a while a band comes out of nowhere and completely blows you away exactly like in the case of THE PAT CATALANO PROJECT, but now, thanks to METAL TEMPLE, the world will soon know.
review
Ellefson/Soto – Unbreakable
February 24, 2026
“Unbreakable” is undoubtedly and unequivocally a Metal record, one where the music is fierce, straight forward and very much in your face. It ranges from Heavy Metal up to and brushing against Thrash Metal territory.
review
Vanishment – And Now We Die
February 22, 2026
“And Now We Die” offers an interesting mixture of Heavy Metal and Thrash Metal. The highlights of the album are the guitar riffs and the solos
review
Lightning Strikes - The King Is Victorious
February 19, 2026
While it's possible to pull off heavy metal in the current age, "The King Is Victorious," with its Duolingo sentence-like song titles, masterbatory guitar solos, and drawn-out compositions, falls flat.
review
Metalodon - Indestructible
February 11, 2026
You know that feeling when you see an album cover, and you just sit there knowing that the music inside is going to be bad or at least entertaining?
review
Crossover - Miserere
February 10, 2026
So long as symphonic pirate isn’t your bag, this album is sure to please.
review
Ian Highhill – A Hymn Among Gravestones
January 31, 2026
What I can tell you that in the forty minutes that you get to enjoy “A Hymn Among Gravestones” there is no escaping the fact that IAN HIGHHILL is capable or writing good songs that have a pull, that will draw you in and that will pique your interest from the first second until the last.
review
Tailgunner – Midnight Blitz
January 31, 2026
On 6 February 2026 the second piece of TAILGUNNER slab will hit the air and the shops. “Midnight Blitz” is brought to us by Napalm Records, and the fact that we as reviewers were only allowed to listen and review through a streaming link says enough about how important this band has become.
review
Savage Sword - Demo 2026
January 27, 2026
The production isn't great, and I love it.
review
Olde Outlier – From Shallow Lives to Shallow Graves
January 20, 2026
“From Shallow Lies to Shallow Graves” is full of filth, very sharp edges, and all the metal you can eat.
review
Rozario - Northern Crusaders
January 19, 2026
The sound that ROZARIO brings to the table is very interesting The musical genre might be Heavy/Power Metal, the sound they use can easily be seen as contemporary, but it also has one foot very clearly in the eighties.
review
Dymytry Paradox - Born From Chaos
January 18, 2026
What is immediate is the feeling that even though this might be a debut album for DYMYTRY PARADOX, these are definitely not newbies at playing this kind of music. This is intense, this is energetic, this is enticing.
review
Death Dealer - Reign Of Steel
January 18, 2026
As far as DEATH DEALER's music is concerned, you can compare “Reign Of Steel” to anything you might hear from THE THREE TREMORS in comparison to any other band the members are active in. This is very Heavy Power Metal with a lot of over the top vocals complementing the rather busy, utterly impressive and quite intense and intricate guitar playing by the two outstanding guitarists.
review
Assignment - With The End Comes Silence
January 18, 2026
Musically this is sandwiched between some subtle Melodic Metal and pure unadulterated Heavy Metal. You will hear the band bouncing from one to another and back with great ease, giving the music on “With The End Comes Silence” a versatility that avoids you getting bored in that respect.
review
Aittala – Ill-Gotten Gains
January 12, 2026
“Ill-Gotten Gains” is an EP for our times.
review
Another Realm- Origin
January 12, 2026
I don't remember symphonic prog being this unexciting...
review
Hounds - Rise Of The Immortals
January 11, 2026
HOUNDS are an Italian Heavy/US Power Metal band born in 2016. Their music is mainly inspired by the great masters of Heavy Metal and 80s US Power Metal, including JUDAS PRIEST, SAVATAGE and VIRGIN STEELE. Well, if that doesn’t sound promising, I don’t know what does.
review
Rozario - We Are One (single)
January 11, 2026
Heavy metal rockers ROZARIO return with the second single/video from their upcoming album “Northern Crusaders” and promise to keep the “Northern Crusade” rampaging.
review
Skull & Crossbones - Time
January 8, 2026
Opening tune “Echoes of Eternity” goes from 0 to 100 mph in just a few seconds. And let me tell you, if this song doesn’t do it for you, just ignore the rest of the album.
review
HyperioN - Cybergenesis
January 7, 2026
HYPERION isn’t the next band to take over the world, but they are a band that has the ability to please and entertain a lot of (mostly) old fashioned Metal fans with the music they have provided us with on “Cybergenesis”. And because they have been able to provide the record with a very clear, transparent, but above all contemporary sound, a lot of the young Metal afficionados might be quite willing to not only give this a go, but also their sign of approval.
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
Stargazery - Carnival Puppeteers
December 30, 2025
I think there are enough people around to really appreciate what STARGAZERY plays in the 53 minutes that make “Carnival Puppeteers”. Oh, and look out for the two covers, from DIO and DEF LEPPARD. they are quite alright...
review
Sabaton - Legends
December 21, 2025
There is not one wrong note on this album. All the songs are well balanced, very easy for the ears and most of all, of a very high quality. I can only applaud what I hear on “Legends”, as SABATON have once again given you a completely finished product that is ready to be admired.
review
N.Y.C. - Built To Destroy
December 21, 2025
It is clear for me that N.Y.C. comes over a lot stronger, makes a lot better impression when they play loud and straight ahead. That’s when the class and their experience shows itself, when they really have an impact with “Built To Destroy”.
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
Rozario - Fire & Ice (single)
December 10, 2025
“Fire & Ice” is the first single/video from the highly anticipated new album from the hard rocking Norwegian band ROZARIO
review
Evil Scarecrow - Silicon Tea
December 10, 2025
Did you know that submarines can have feelings too? Well, if you listen to opener “Nuclear Fallout Machine Sentience” the band will set you straight on that one
review
Jet Jaguar – Severance
December 10, 2025
While the songs are clearly the most important part of the process when they write their music, they also never forget to have fun while doing so. That makes that especially guitarist Ariyuki Saddler gets the chance to demonstrate his techniques.
review
Tailgunner - Midnight Blitz (single)
December 4, 2025
When heavy metal icon K K Downing produces your latest album and loudly proclaims “They personify everything that is heavy metal” the music world takes notice.
