El Salvador’s premier Metal band CONCEIVED BY HATE is back again. After their 2009 EP “Witness Of Decay” and a first full-length called “Pestilence Reborn”, they are now here to present us their newest output. This time it’s a shared effort, a split 7”, only on vinyl, together with Chilean Thrashers NUCLEAR. CONCEIVED BY HATE […]
I must admid, that I totally missed out on Italy’s HORRID (shame on me!) and I am totally blown away by the re-release of their 1998 released EP "Blasphemic Creatures". The style is old school Swedish Death Metal in the vein of old ENTOMBED, DISMEMBER, CARNAGE or even early NECROPHOBIC. The first four songs are […]
Crust / Grindcore! The Greek band STHENO, formed in 2013, delivered their first achievement in the form of this 5 track EP that hardly fills ten minutes. Much info about the band I can’t give, apart that some members play in BEDLAM and UNFIT EARTH. "Damnation Is Forever” is released on Chaos And Hell Productions which you […]
It’s just half a year ago that German SLAUGHTERDAY unleashed their first full-length upon mankind. “Nightmare Vortex” reached highest acclaim, not only in the pages you’re reading right now. Despite this brilliant reception, I somehow missed out this album. Why? I’m not quite sure… Blame it on the unusual amount of new and more or […]
Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts. DIES IRAE, DECAPITATED, BEHEMOTH, NUCLEAR RABBIT, CANNIBAL CORPSE, MORBID ANGEL, MONSTROSITY, NOCTURNUS, ACHERON, DAVID SHANKLE GROUP, MANOWAR, SEVERE TORTURE, CHRIST AGONY. Those bands are or have been in several ways associated with VOODOO GODS, some kind of all-star band. Founded back in 2001 by Alex Voodoo under […]
Even though German KEITZER are active for one and a half decades, the quintet happened to be a mere underground phenomenon for a long time. Their first three albums (plus two split 7”es) were released through small labels. The first step out of the deepest underground happened when KEITZER signed to F.D.A. Records, who released […]
Well, over the last years, Swedish MORDBRAND released quite a few records. Yet, all of them were “small stuff”, three EPs and two splits to be precise. What they had in common was the fact that they featured some of the best Swedish Metal of Death I heard in the last years. So, not only […]
"To The Gory End" – this will always be a quality album and an extensive introduction seems superfluous. But in case you landed on this website through a datingsite, never heard of the band and are charmed by the cover art here follows a short intro. This is a re-release of this British trio’s debut […]
I remember those days of old, when Death Metal rose from its rotten tombs and countless new bands saw the dark of day. Besides the dark stars of this era, there were myriads that were in the second line, who never reached the acclaim they deserved. One of these outfits were CANCER from the United […]
CANCER from the UK are one of the classic old school but in my opinion still underrated bands. The fact, that Cyclone Empire hooked up with the guys to re-release their first three classic albums is proof enough, that these albums can be considered as all-time classics in the Death / Thrash Metal genre. After […]
