It really doesn’t happen that often that you get hold of a metallic release from the land of Lebanon. Most of the stuff I heard of this country from the Near East was either a kind of raw and violent Black Metal or dedicated, traditional Heavy Metal worship. TRISTMOON’s musical approach is far beyond the […]
TRIST is a solo project of LUNAR AURORA’s Aran (who calls himself Tristan here) and as far as I know, this is his first (official) musical sign of life. "Hin-Fort" turns out to be a very demanding and extremely self confident release, not only because of its lengthy playing time, but also due to the […]
Within the last years the scene in Switzerland has become famous for its fanatic Death / Grind fever and a lot of die hard lunatics raising chaos on several festivals. If you belong to those TRIBES OF CAIN won’t be exactly what you expect, cause this quintet sounds more unique and not struggeling under the […]
If you’ve never heard of TRAUMATIC VOYAGE, Metal Archives will tell you they play "Progressive Death Metal". In reality, TRAUMATIC VOYAGE is a one man Avant-Garde Black / Death project from Munich, Germany that creates truly insane music. His latest release, the double-album "Traumaturgie", is no exception. It sucks the listener into the mind of […]
They got drive!!! TRANSGRESSION from Germany offer energetic rather old school Death Metal that makes you wanna move! The four songs are probably not ground-breaking but they grip you and just won’t let go! A great soundtrack for your next quick bloodbath (or rather: shower) and a special tip for every gore party! More! www.transgression-metal.de […]
I read about this four piece from Chile quite a few times already, always wondered about their strange sounding name, but never got to hear their previously released stuff. In detail that is two demos ("The King Of Hell Reclaims His Throne" from 1990 and "Our Almighty Lords" from 1993), of which the latter one […]
Short and sweet: TOTALT JÄVLA MÖRKER means something like ‘Total Fucking Darkness’. Sounds pretty Black Metal? Absolutely wrong, no Metal here at all. Instead we get a mixture of all things, Grind, Crust, Core, whatever, right there in your stupid and ugly face. Raw, dirty, ferocious and completely uninteresting for the reader of this page. […]
Finally it is about time for someone of the Voices personnel to write something about TORTURE DIVISION. I decided that it’s me who will have the pleasure, haha. TORTURE DIVISION already offered 4 high quality demos for free and "Evighetens Dårar II" is the 5th one and 2nd one in the "Evighetens Dårar" – trilogoy. […]
It’s Death Metal-time again. TOMBTHROAT already exist for 10 years and I’m afraid to say that this is my first time to hear a release from them. Checking their discography I see that they released one demo in 1999 as well as 5 albums including this new one "Blood Red History". TOMBTHROAT don’t invent a […]
Other publications such as Decibel have a way of both infuriating sane readers and casting albums like this into perspective. Decibel is vexing because it promotes idol worship, not real criticism. However, it also sobers the way we can look at this debut album by TOMBS. By now, people who read Decibel likely as not […]
