Goot - The Toll Remains The Same
June 3, 2025
This is bloody good music by a very pleasant sounding band. What they play is Melodic Heavy Metal that acquires and it has gotten a very powerful sound.
review
Loanshark - No Sins To Confess
April 7, 2025
LOANSHARK is a heavy metal band, not the guy that takes out your knee caps when you don’t pay it back, but to be on the safe side, don’t borrow any money from the band.
review
Robin McAuley
March 21, 2025
Robin McAuley, the voice that defined the sound of supergroups MCAULEY/SCHENKER and BLACK SWAN is back with his third solo album and is out to prove why he should always be included in the conversation of “best singers of rock” with this latest release “Soulbound”.
review
DAZR
March 18, 2025
When this band DAZR came to my attention a few weeks back via YouTube, I was immediately blown away by the straight forward, balls to the wall sound of pure and un-restrained heavy metal and I knew the world needed to know about them too.
review
Nuclearsaurus Rex - Operation Party Destroy
January 29, 2025
If you are wondering how it is that these musicians work so well together, I have to tell you that this is a one-man band. I don’t know what kind of name or person Chalky is, but I like his sense of humour.
review
Deimos' Dawn - God Of Pain
December 23, 2024
There are four contributions by DEIMO’S DAWN themselves. And they do what it says on the tin. They Thrash, they make your head bang, they give as good as it gets.
review
Deadly Magic - …As Nightmares Gorged The Earth
December 9, 2024
If there is one real criticism that I can relate to when it comes to DEADLYU MAGIC it is that I feel that “…As Nightmares Gorged The Earth” is way, way too short for me. I would have loved at least 40 minutes more.
review
Gates Open - Black Clouds Over The World
December 9, 2024
A powerful duo is back with their sound of old school melodic death tinged in industrial metal from Finland
review
200 Stab Wounds - Piles of Festering Decomposition (Reissue)
November 27, 2024
200 STAB WOUNDS play Extremely Gore Death Metal with the vocals to match. You just have to look at the covers of their albums to know that nobody and no body is spared. This slaughterhouse experience is a sadistic butchers paradise.
review
Kublai Khan TX - Exhibition Of Prowess
November 27, 2024
On Wikipedia the band KUBLKAI KHAN TX is classed as a Metalcore band. But that is just plain wrong. This is Metal Hardcore. What also is in here is a Groove part, and even some Nu-Metal influences that are being shown from time to time.
review
Misscore - Hypocrisy
November 26, 2024
Alt Rock tinged in industrial to bring you a darker sound
review
Cober Mouth – Untethered
October 15, 2024
COBER MOUTH claim to play Nu-Metalcore, whatever that may be. I suspect a combination between Nu Metal and Metalcore. If that is so, I can tell you that Nu-Metalcore is quite accurate.
review
Wicked Maraya - The Mystic Demos
October 15, 2024
As for the musical direction, please forget what the band WICKED MARAYA was doing on their debut album, as MYSTIC is cut from a completely different cloth. There is nothing Epic about what I am listening to on “The Mystic Demos”. What we have here is a band trying to impress by playing straight forward and rather fast Heavy Metal, or what we now would call it Traditional Heavy Metal.
review
Mystical Death - Carnation (EP)
September 24, 2024
The atmosphere on “Carnation” is very much a contemporary one, with good structures, good sound and very inspiring songs.
review
Wallop - Hell On Wheels
September 24, 2024
Let's start with the most important part, which is what kind of music WALLOP play. It is pure and unadulterated Heavy Metal. Nothing more, nothing less. And they make sure that from the first moment on you will be recognise the songs as such.
review
Mister Misery – Mister Misery
September 24, 2024
MISTER MISERY is not making it easy on us reviewers, as they are bouncing around with their music, going from rather fast and groovy down to slow and moody, and everything in between. What does work a treat is that all four of the members can sing, so switching style and/or intensity is not a problem for them.
review
Mages Terror - Damnations Sight
September 24, 2024
This rocks, this rips, this shreds, but most important of all, this moves. It moves me, it moves my brain, it moves my feet and it even moves my head.
review
Against Evil - Give ‘Em Hell
September 24, 2024
Musically it is quite clear that AGAINST EVIL is getting their inspiration from the greats of old, like JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, MEGADETH, but most of all early ACCEPT. That is what is says in the bio, and if you listen carefully the first and the last one of the names are most relevant.
review
Iron Monkey - Spleen & Goad
September 16, 2024
If you are not familiar with IRON MONKEY and you either have a sensitive disposition, or if you are depressed or even worse, I would advise you to stay away from “Spleen & Goad”. This is everything but happy music, this is as oppressing as I feel is humanly possible.
review
Nasty Savage - Jeopardy Room
September 16, 2024
All the ingredients that make "Jeopardy Room" into the NASTY SAVAGE area of expertise are there. Nothing is run of the mill bog standard Thrash, no, it has all kind of twists and turns.
review
Sweet - Full Circle
September 16, 2024
I have to issue a warning first: I will be extremely prejudiced when typing this review, as THE SWEET were one of the first musical crushes I had in the first half of the seventies, together with MUD, THE RUBETTES and SLADE. That is right, we are talking over 50 years ago!
review
TAZ - Razors Edge (The 1988 & 89 Demos)
September 16, 2024
I was quite disappointed in the sound of this TAZ album. Until I read the bio, and it actually is a rerelease of the 1988 and 1989 demos the band made. All of a sudden the quality of the record made a lot of sense.
review
Thrasherwolf - Inside The Sickened Mind
September 16, 2024
I am very much in awe of what I hear, and even though the band isn't breaking any new ground, they are making me enjoy the path they are following right now. And if I have anything to say about it, I would advise any record company to get off their lazy arses and sign THRASHERWOLF a.s.a.p..
review
Zwart - Heem
September 16, 2024
The Black Metal these guys play is very, very old school. This is pure Black Metal without any frills, fills or spills. As straight as an arrow and as deadly as sin. And darker than the absence of light.
review
Faal / Verbum Verus – Split EP
September 16, 2024
It's never easy to review a spilt EP, as there are at least two bands with different styles that are interacting with each other. In the case of FAAL and VERBUS VERUS, we have two Dutch bands that have been put together, and the message on the back of the sleeve is that this all has been done 'In Memory of Pascal Vervest'. He was one of the guitarists in FAAL and is on the songs that you hear on this split EP.
review
Axehead – Meltdown
September 16, 2024
Although AXEHEAD is not one of those bands that will get your heart racing or your blood pressure rise to dangerous levels, they will provide you with enough ammunition to be able to vent whatever emotion that needs to come out. And that is what music is all about, isn't it?
review
Chaos Unleashed - I Am Chaos
September 16, 2024
I will have to get to the CHAOS UNLEASHED songs next. They are furious, very much in your face and extremely effective. They don't enter your ears in a subtle way at all, no, they are shot in their with maximum force. You had better be prepared for a full on assault on your senses, as that is what you are getting.
review
Derelict - Versus Entropy
September 11, 2024
From Canada comes their new stench of technical death tinged in deathcore with their return to the world of metal.
review
Victory - Circle Of Life
September 10, 2024
ICTORY is able to make all the tunes gel together, making “Circle Of Life” into another album that has me tapping my feet and banging my head whilst trying to type any kind of understandable review. That really is almost impossible, as even my bum is trying to lift itself of the seat, to get me to dance along to the music.
review
Kryptos - Decimator
September 10, 2024
The band plays NWOTHM and has no qualms about showing where they have their infuences from. And to be frank, they are plentiful. KRYPTOS isn't exactly trying to hide where they feel the best musical knicking options are.
review
Shamash – Done With Misery
September 10, 2024
From KL Malaysia comes a fusion of melodic death and metalcore that is enriched with emotion and layered with dynamic elements.
review
Nightrage - Remains Of A Dead World
September 9, 2024
What is very clear is that you wouldn't notice that they have made a lot of albums when you try to measure the amount of enthusiasm that is apparent on “Remains Of A Dead World”. NIGHTRAGE sound like a pack of very hungry wolves going out for their very first hunt of the season.
review
Open Surgery - Absolute Destruction
September 9, 2024
What it does do is make “Absolute Destruction” into a very nice Old School Death Metal album. What I will say is that if this is one of your first encounters with that music gnre, you could do a lot worse than “Absolute Destruction”.
review
Oxygen Destroyer - Guardian of the Universe
September 9, 2024
As for the kind of Death Metal they are playing. You have fast, faster and hyperspeed. Well, OXYGEN DESTROYER is set right in between the latter two. Let me rephrase that; if a band like DEATH or MORBID ANGEL would have recorded “Guardian of the Universe”, the album would have lasted some 50 minutes. Now it barely reaches 33 minutes.
review
Zubzero - Frostbite
September 9, 2024
If you love a bit of good Heavy music without complications but with a healthy dose of positive energy, you might want to give ZUBZERO a try and listen to “Frostbite”.
review
Burnt Offering – Frightmare (Demo 1985)
September 9, 2024
After a few listens i'm starting to wonder why no one picked up and signed BURNT OFFERING. In comparison with some of the releases halfway through the eighties they would have easily come through on top. Not only that, but my ears and brains are telling me that the music on “Frightmare (Demo 1985)” also has stood the test of time.
