Anyone in need of an IN FLAMES clone? If not, better stop reading. "Scars Of Daylight" is the debut by OUTLYING from Canada, originally released 2011 and GS Productions are now in charge of the European version. Like I wrote above, the band is heavily influenced by the recent IN FLAMES albums, which means no […]
German perverts DEAD have had a long career since its inception back in 1990. Purveyors of an obscene mix of Death Metal, Grindcore and Sleazy Rock’n’Roll, these guys have been releasing splits, 7" EPs and albums for 2 decades. And they continue their quality delivery up to this date. GS Productions has re-issued their debut […]
TOXODEATH was probably the first extreme Metal band I ever listened to from Mexico, thanks to their Wild Rags debut album “Mysteries About Life And Death” back in 1990. Why they never got bigger than this is beyond me, I guess there is some kind of curse on the Mexican scene that great bands like […]
DISPATCHED was a pretty unknown band from Sweden, who also drowned in the mass of releases back in the mid 90s. After releasing four demos, they finally got signed to underground label Exhumed Productions and started the recordings for their debut album "Blackshadows", which unfortunately never really got released apart from some pressed promo tapes, […]
The moniker DISPATCHED is one I’ve read about (review) ages ago without ever hearing a single track from. I can’t blame the band because they have a decent discography with six demos, four EPs, a single and three full-length albums. These are ”Blackshadows” form 1994, ”Motherwar” from 2000 and ”Terrorizer (The Last Chapter…)” from 2003. […]
In the last two years, there was this band from Gothenburg that claimed the vast throne of the local melodic Death Metal scene. NORRSKÖLD released an EP and an album that were received well by yours truly. The music Henrik Bodin-Sköld (a.k.a. Norrsköld) and his band (who like him were in IRRBLOSS before) created filled […]
Well, if you’re not into Pagan Metal, it might be a waste of time to continue reading here. The Polish one man band project NEOHERESY is pretty far from being a feast for those into the extreme, brutal and sick. Instead, “Talionis” offers music based on traditional Slavic Folk. These ideas and melodies are interpreted […]
One of those bands that never dies is VIRGIN STEELE. The New York based outfit is around for nearly 35 years now, never really on top, never really dead and buried. After two pretty nice, but not too thrilling pioneering US Metal albums, VIRGIN STEELE released two highly acclaimed, yet not successful albums. The overrated […]
A bunch of talented guys releasing an album at the age of around 20: ”Raising The Corpse”. And just a year earlier they came up with “Fatal Memories”. Iron Pegasus now decided to release them together. And what you witness, seems like a North Korean talent show. Weird, but probably the perfect venue to enjoy […]
The name VOLTUMNA derives from the Etruscan mythology, for more information please visit the library of your choice. "Disciplina Etrusca" is the second full-length by the Italian horde and if you take a look at the band’s photo it is hardly surprising some classic Black Metal is in the air. Do not get me wrong […]
