So the time has come for another masterpiece from Mexico’s forward thinking Death / Doom phenomenon MAJESTIC DOWNFALL. I have something to admit, I’m a big fan of Jacobo Córdova,. Every single band and album he is involved with has something unique and interesting to offer to the Metal community. He has been very active […]
With a very familiar but still deadly sound, BONE GNAWER’s new album comes in full attack mode fronted by the legendary Kam Lee (MASSACRE, DENIAL FRIEND). After a long intro, "Cannibal Crematorium" presents us an effective buffet for those heavily into legendary bands like CARCASS and IMPETIGO to name a few. Besides, there is a […]
Swedish Death Metal. Exclamation mark, normally. To go out on a limb, i’d say there is no country on earth which provides such a huge amount of good music of every kind. And of cause Death Metal or in this case melodic Death Metal is one of those kinds. I guess name dropping would be […]
The darkness swells in the east! And fuck yeah, I am happy to review another upcoming band from that area, between surface mines and the otherworld. Which has been neglected for too long. At least when it comes to the unholy pact with the dark and its mysteries. ANTLERS from Leipzig (Germany) seem to be […]
This five-piece from Rome is on a mission to put Italy on the map of modern Heavy Rock. The name HELLIGATORS and the title of their second album “Road Roller Machine” already hint on it. And they do pretty well at this. Imagine a well balanced mix of old fashioned Heavy Rock with a certain […]
Polish Black Metal band BLAZE OF PERDITION released their 3rd full-length, "Near Death Revelations". And of cause it has to be an intimate album this time. Taking away the horrible circumstances they had to suffer, before deciding to get together and start this project, it turns out a very personal contention with life and death. […]
A Brazilian band, relocated to L.A.? Looks like the guys from BLACK OIL are out to raise some attention. “Exist To Resist” is the third album, as far as I found out, from this band and after listening to it, I hope they won’t gain too much attention. Why? Because this album is incredibly lousy. […]
Second album from this USA Death Metal trio that is not that far away from what they achieved with their debut album. And that is a very good dose of evil Death Metal very much in the vein of INCANTATION with a few doses of IMMOLATION and some BOLT THROWER for a good mix. If […]
Already the fifth album from this Ukranian band, formed back in 2005. Their style is a mixture of Death and Thrash Metal. There are a lot of references to bands like SEPULTURA, SLAYER, KREATOR, SODOM and later DEATH. The production is really well done for the music style and the execution is also very good […]
I cannot believe this is already 29 years old. Yes, the debut album from this band that started as a Heavy Metal act, is today one of the best material to come from the mighty Brazilian scene. With only 23 minutes long, this is their “Reign In Blood”. The recording is raw, but everything can […]
