There was a time when 2 SLAYER’s were living side by side. As a magickal coincidence, both bands played a quite very similar style and had a quite occult-themed approach in their early stages, alas before releasing anything on a label. But the devil’s work is mysterious thus one of those bands maintained their style, […]
GOLEM from Berlin is one of the oldest Grind bands in Germany and a real institution in the Grind scene, not only in East Germany. In their 25th band year F.D.A. Records honours their classic work with the fine re-release of their first two full-length albums. "Eternity: The Weeping Horizons" is a real jewel, but overlooked […]
Out from Vitebsk, Belarus crawls this 5-piece act, sticking to an unoriginal name UNLUCKY BURIED. The band was founded in 2002, and so far they have just released one studio album in 2009, titled "Blast From The Underground". The album itself contains 6 of their own songs and a cover of the Polish Death Metal […]
If you are into traditional ’80s Heavy Metal for a while, then most probably this band needs no special introduction. And if you like female fronted acts, then most probably you already have a couple of HELLION releases in your collection, or at least you know them – because the truth is that American HELLION […]
If there is one band that is definitely neither lazy nor unproductive, it’s Germany’s own REVEL IN FLESH. Right now, there will be three new split vinyl releases, all of them on 7" and the songs for the next album are nearly finished, according to the latest info from singer Haubersson. But before, we have […]
After less than a year of silence (more or less) after their first full-length "Trenches Of The Netherworld", Swedens D-Beat Deathheads USURPRESS show another sign of life in the form of a split release with Belgium based Grinders BENT SEA. But USURPRESS are out for a surprise here, exploring new horizons with their longest song […]
More hate shall be spread… the Russian 2-man Black Metal horde BLACK SHADOW smashes all the icons and crucifixes down and make all the hypocrite Jesus lovers weeping on the band’s 8th studio album, titled “…Сквозь Чёрное Пламя Молоха…”, which English translation is “…Through The Dark Flame Of Moloch…”. My first impression about this particular […]
Lord Demogorgon and Asmodeus are the main duo that are responsible for creating this pitch-black Russian monster known as BLACK SHADOW. They have often been accused for being a cloned Russian version of the Swedish Black Metal arts DARK FUNERAL, but on the other hand there’s just a bit more to their sound than being […]
Sometimes in life magic is happening and very often it occurs unexpected. This time the Slovakian Black Metal outfit EVIL was responsible for a stunning experience. My first thoughts about the band were pretty pessimistic. EVIL, the most boring band name in the whole Metal genre. There must be dozens of bands with the word […]
Evil, graves, demons, tyrants, damnation, death, darkness, crushing, fire, ripping, death again, darkness again… If I was offered to listen to an album with such a tracklist, recorded by a new Thrash band that I have never heard before, I would trust my cliché-o-meter and ignore it. That album would be, most probably, way too […]
