The East German three piece ARROGANZ is already around for quite a while and they can not be described as an idle band, as this new album “Morsus” is their fifth full-length already. Thus they earned a good reputation especially in the German extreme Metal underground. And with great justice for sure, as their albums […]
In 2015, DEPRESSION celebrated their 25th year of existence with their 4th studio album, “The Dark Dimension”, where they showed themselves more varied than ever, in addition to classic Grind eruptions, groovy mid-tempo smashers and crust elements. As time marches, on the first day of September 2020, they crossed the 30-years benchmark and this time […]
There’s something about spoken word in French Black Metal that just doesn’t sound intimidating or evil. And though the band could probably easily kick my ass, I’d be laughing at their words beforehand. Having said that, GRIFFON’s second full-length “ὸ θεός ὸ βασιλεύς” is a fairly decent and refreshing album. The first track ‘Damaskos’ transforms […]
In the history of British Rock music, there are two famous pairs of brothers with the last name Gallagher. Quite well known are the jerks Noel and Liam, who gave Brit Pop a bad name for being wacky idiots. And then there are the good ones: Mark and John Gallagher from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, better known as […]
France is one of the countries with a pretty active Black Metal underground. IN CAUDA VENENUM are active since a decade now and the fact that “G.O.H.E.” is only their second release so far after their self-titled debut back in 2015 shows theat they carefully work on their material before it gets unleashed. Like the […]
If you are a true old school Thrash Metal maniac you should know those guys. EVILDEAD was formed back in 1986 by ABATTOIR and AGENT STEEL members as a side-project. Released back in 1989, their debut album “Annihilation Of Civilization” became an instant classic while “The Underworld”, their second album, was some kind of good […]
This is the third album from this total Heavy Metal project from Metal Master Daniel Corchado. It seems that sooner or later those Death and Black Metal legends will soon turn to their roots that is traditional Heavy Metal. And that can only be a good thing. In this case, this third album goes with […]
As every die-hard maniac knows, Perú is one of the most prolific countries in terms of bestial yet primitive Metal, impregnated by a strong attitude and a raw sound on their bands as a reflection against the moral and religious establishment. This sentence is confirmed by bands that transcended latitudes as MORTEM, ANAL VOMIT, HADEZ, […]
They started as a Power / Speed Metal band, released a couple of decent albums in that style in the late 80s, then they turned into some kind of technical Death / Thrash and released some EPs and a full-length in 1991. Although good, the music itself was nothing that will pass the test of […]
This zine is a good quality, black and white print presentation. Most of the interviews in this France based zine are in English. There’s a nice 4 page interview with American Death / Doom legends DERKETA, a very in depth 6 page interview with American Frostian Metallers USURPER, a 5 page interview with USA cult […]
