Americade – Live in New York 1982
September 9, 2024
What matters most to us as listeners is that all songs have that kind of quality that will have you take notice, will start the goose bumps coming up and make you enjoy the whole live show. All eleven songs are rather pleasing for the ears.
review
Obscurial - Heretic
September 9, 2024
Blasting out of Malaysia with the stench of death upon them comes a group that showcases their form of death metal
review
Hellpriests - Sermon
September 3, 2024
HELLPRIESTS
debut demo
"Sermon"
is a raw and unapologetic entry into the Black Metal scene, marked by a brutal sound that explores themes of blasphemy, sacrilege, and the darker aspects of human existence. This album establishes
HELLPRIESTS
as a promising new force in Black Metal, blending primal aggression with philosophical depth.
review
Astral Doors - The End Of It All
September 2, 2024
ome five years after releasing “Worship Or Die” ASTRAL DOORS return with a surprise. A new album! Not exactly expected anymore, so a big and positive surprise, and totally welcome. “The End Of It All” is the title, and the first question that pops up is; is this true? Is this the last we will hear from this Swedish band?
review
Downfall Of Mankind - Purgatory
September 2, 2024
I just thought it was a whole bunch of noise, until all of a sudden all the pieces of the puzzle feel into the right places and it all started making sense. Do I feel that DOWNFALL OF MANKIND has made a blinding album? No, I don't, but I do think they have made one that will get the afficionados of Modern Metal take stock and give them something to think about.
review
Flotsam And Jetsam - I Am The Weapon
September 2, 2024
One thing is for sure; when the first riffs of “A New Kind Of Hero” come through your speakers you will recognise this as being FLOTSAM & JETSAM. Once the vocals of Eric AK are added it only confirms this feat.
review
Indulgence – Grim Times
September 1, 2024
Let me start by saying that f you are expecting INDULGENCE to sound polished, slick or easy listening, you can get that notion right out of your head. This is honest, raw, direct and uncompromising Thrash Metal, with all the flaws that this brings.
review
Heavy Rain – Heavy Rain
September 1, 2024
HEAVY RAIN is a three piece Heavy Rock/Blues/Psychedelic Rock band from Blackpool, England. I only know that town from the Rock that is a candy stick and the Blackpool Tower, which is the little cousin of the Eiffel Tower. But I certainly have grown to like it a lot more, mainly due to the music on “Heavy Rain”.
review
AcidBait - AcidBait EP
September 1, 2024
The “AcidBait” songs themselves will stand up to any criticism you throw at them. No, they're not perfect, but they all have a good structure, a solid foundation and enough points that will keep you interested. This never bores.
review
Holy Mother - Rise
August 24, 2024
In just over 40 minutes HOLY MOTHER have impressed me more than I would have thought possible.
review
Vicolo Inferno - Circles
August 24, 2024
VICOLO INFERNO. That last word got me hoping that the music of this band would have some oomph to it, a certain kind of eargerness and a sharp edge that would have me sitting on the edge of my seat, whilst tapping my foot and banging my head. Even when I found out that the band is a pure melodic Rock/Metal combo I had hopes of a very positive outcome of this review.
review
Warhog - The Dystopian Chronicles Vol. 1
August 24, 2024
WARHOG hail from Dallas in Texas, USA, and make a brand of Heavy Metal that includes a lot of Groove. And it is a combination that is quite feasible, very much trendy at the moment.
review
Rotten UK - Age of Chaos
August 20, 2024
ROTTEN UK. They must really hate the UK, although they themselves are from Rochester. No, not the one in Kent, England, but the one in New York, USA. Does that shine through in the music on offer on “Age Of Chaos”? No, it doesn't, it could just as easy been from anywhere in the world, but most likely the UK. It's hard, heavy, uncopmpromising and ruthless.
review
Illdisposed - In Chambers Of Sonic Disgust
August 20, 2024
I can mention is that once you have the music entering your ears either through your headphones or the open air, you will be able to immediately distinguish which band you are listening to. Is that a bad thing? Not at all, as a lot of bands would love to be recognised at first tone.
review
Necrophagia - Moribundis Grim
August 16, 2024
NECROPHAGIA was one of the forerunners of the Extreme Metal scene, and even with my limited knowledge of that part of the Metal community, I do know that the band of whom Killjoy was the undisputed leader made a huge impact in the underground. “Moribundis Grim” is a fitting end to a massive legacy, and one for the real fans.
review
Brocas Helm - Helm's Deep (The Demo Anthology)
August 16, 2024
The biggest plus of “Helm's Deep (The Demo Anthology)” is the fact that for a demo album is sounds bloody good. Every song is very distinguishable in sound, and not one of the instruments is being overshadowed by the others. This goes to show the level of professionalism BROCAS HELM has always been capable of bringing to the table.
review
Category 7 - Category 7
August 13, 2024
As you would expect and hope, the production of "Category 7" is top notch. Hard, Heavy hitting, but still with enough space for the Melodic parts that are being played. As far as I can tell CATEGORY 7 is launching themselves into the Premier League Of Thrash Metal.
review
Cavalera - Schizophrenia
August 13, 2024
As I see it “Schizophrenia” should be the last album that needs the CAVALERA treatment, as from the next SEPULTURA album onwards, “Beneath The Remains”, the sound has been impeccable. So now you can enjoy every SEPULTURA album with a sound deserving of the music.
review
Cloven Hoof - Heathen Cross
August 13, 2024
If you are talking about t a band that has been around for ages, the one that most prople do not think of from the start is CLOVEN HOOF. But, they did start life in 1979 and they might never have entered the Premier League of NWOBHM, but they were there nevertheless.
review
DD Verni - Dreadful Company
August 13, 2024
DD VERNI is hitting everything on the head with a vengeance. He is taking no prisoners. If you dopn't understand what he is soinging you are lacking the basic knowledge of the English language. Not one word is too difficult to grasp, and he is making sure you know what he means. On top of that he is playing everything himself, except for the drums and some guest guitarists. That makes “Dreadul Company” even more impressive in my book.
review
Exodus - British Disaster The Battle of '89 (Live At The Astoria)
August 12, 2024
EXODUS has nailed another good one on my list. “British Disaster The Battle of '89 (Live At The Astoria)” is one of the best live recordings I have heard in the last number of years, and it will undoubtedly be part of my phone's play list for a very long time.
review
Duft - Altar Of Instant Gratification
August 12, 2024
I am currently listening to DUFT, a Metalcore/Hardcore band that came to fruition in 2021. now, some three years later, they are releasing their debut album with the extensive title “Altar Of Instant Gratification”. I was very hesitant at first, as I felt that this was just a very limited Metalcore record. Did I change my mind?
review
Floodfall - Unbroken
August 12, 2024
FLOODFALL. I have been on the site of the band, and I can't find the time that these guys got together. And,m as these two have the same surname, what kind of connection they have with each other. So, I am not in a position to tell you a whole lot more.
review
Motivik - Renouncement
August 12, 2024
MOTIVIK originates from Atlanta, Georgia, USA and if you try to listen to what kind of music they play you will end up classifiying it as Melodic Thrash mixed with Heavy Metal, all in a contemporary setting.
review
Wolves Don't Sleep - Fears & Fractures
July 23, 2024
Usually a Metalcore band will be as bipolar as possible, with their emotions ranging from extremely aggressive and angry to utterly emo and despondent. WOLVES DON’T SLEEP don’t follow that recipe at all. They start at hard and heavy and finish just before the aggressive stage. Their boundaries are quite a lot tighter than people in the Metalcore community are used to.
review
Stormborn – Zenith
July 23, 2024
Melodic Heavy/Power and yes, even Speed Metal is passing you by left, right and centre. It all sounds very good, has the perfect and positive vibe that you expect from this kind of music. The musicians are also all very capable, and the singer has a voice that is complementing everything the instrumentalists are able to throw at him.
review
Shrapnel - In Gravity
July 23, 2024
I will mention to the people who already know and love SHRAPNEL that they have once again produced an album that is worthy of their admiration. On the other side of the spectrum, my view for those who haven’t embraced SHRAPNEL yet is to give “In Gravity” enough spinning time to be able to either grow on you or not.
review
Demon – Invincible
July 10, 2024
When a band has been around for forty-five years you just know they are doing something right as in the case of DEMON and the latest release “Invincible” as they set out to prove that there’s a reason for their longevity in this ever-changing musical landscape.
review
Halcyon Way - Night Crawling
July 3, 2024
The latest release is from 2018, so it was about time that some new stuff way would see the light of day. It finally has arrived in the form of three songs, together forming the “Night Crawling” EP.
review
Attacker - The God Particle
July 3, 2024
When ATTACKER released their debut album “Battle At Helm’s Deep” in 1985, it had the whole Metal World in its grip. This was something completely new. Even though the production was mediocre, the sort of US Metal that was evident on the record pulled a lot of weight and put the band on a pedestal.
review
Anvil - One And Only
July 3, 2024
You need to look at ANVIL liker you would at MOTÖRHEAD or AC/DC. They are remaking every album time and time again. They have their formula and stick to it. It is something that you need to know.
review
The Hazytones - Wild Fever
June 16, 2024
THE HAZYTONES are slow. Just to put it all into context, THE HAZYTONES are too slow for Stoner Rock. On the other end of the spectrum, they are just not slow enough for pure Doom Metal.
review
Ironbound - Serpent's Kiss
June 16, 2024
“Serpent’s Kiss” is a fine example of Polish NWOTHM. What becomes clear when the guitars come in is that the guitarists have taken a leaf out of the massive book of IRON MAIDEN.
review
Avralize – Freaks
June 16, 2024
What I suspect is that when you have the chance to see them live, you will become on of the “Freaks” in the audience, because I feel that the songs on the album lend themselves brilliantly to being live favourites.
review
I Am The Intimidator - I Am The Intimidator
June 13, 2024
I AM THE INTIMIDATOR is a one-man band from Portland, Oregon. The music they play is classed as NASCAR metal, and seeing how some of the songs have been constructed I can agree wholeheartedly.
review
Scavenger - Beyond The Bells
June 12, 2024
You will not hear anything that is contemporary. Neither will you run into something innovative or inventive. What you will get is very good Old School Heavy Metal that will remind you of SAXON and a host of pure NWOBHM bands.
