It is a bestial and filthy piece of Deathrash Metal from Peruvian Hell. The songs are fast and short, mostly between three or four minutes and some are in mid tempo. The vocals are mostly in Spanish, but some are in English too. They recruited a new vocalist on this album, who is Alexander Nunsfucker, […]
You know, in this day and age, you have to give a tip of the hat to those of our Metal brethren who persevere and keep chugging along. Despite the ever-shifting tastes in the world of Heavy Metal, and with new genres and bands popping up on every corner, it can be a daunting task. […]
It is nice to hear BLUE ÖYSTER CULT and ROKY ERICKSON have been around with cause and effect. Well, I’ve been listening intensely to the music throughout many more years, than I can count – and it seems like the Swedes in the young band MIDNATT, also have taken their toll on good old occult […]
Debut efforts, no doubt, are critical pieces of a band’s discography. Often the purest ideas and years of crafting them go into that first formal release; it serves as the primary presentation of the band’s creative force. It must be able to cut through the noise and land with an impact, otherwise, it will simply […]
At some point, I wrote in a review that there is probably no other genre in extreme Metal with as many one-man bands as Black Metal. That was maybe twenty years ago or more, but the observation still holds true. This time it is BRONZE HALL from Finland, who already received high marks for their […]
Do you remember the “Treacherous Beast” EP, which sent headbangers across the country into a state of ecstasy almost two years ago? Three tracks, ten minutes only, but yet the sound was perfectly situated somewhere between late-seventies Hardrock and this moment, when Metal emerged and became a subgenre in its own right. Now these four […]
CHARIOTS OVERDRIVE from Atlanta, Georgia just released their first full-length “The End Of Antiquity”. Their 2023 Demo “When The Wheels Start”, hinted the intention of making and playing Heavy Metal, highly influenced by NWOBHM and classic Power Metal. Although based in Atlanta, but originally from China, the quartet of G.H.Z. (vocals / guitar / piano), […]
Have you ever heard wet mud splattering on concrete? A distinctive dull sound, we all know it tends to be monotone and unassuming in any other form. That is the general impression that I get from LITURGY OF DESECRATION. Hailing from Athens, Greece and playing a form of War Metal in the vein of BLASPHEMY, […]
Due to those curiosities of life, I had the opportunity to review here in VOICES (it has happened to me a couple more times with a couple of other bands) the first full-length by HEATHEN PEACE from 2024, titled “Civilisation Ends Here…”. It was the debut of a band that arrived to show a type […]
“Keeping The Cauldron Warm” is the seventh album by the Swedish Metal band SKELETAL SPECTRE and is released by Great Dane Records. The album starts with a riff that would make you think you will be listening to a Death’n’Roll or Groove Metal band, but then it picks up the pace with a steady galloping […]
