OK, first things first for those uninitiated with this band. The album was produced, engineered and mixed by Daniel Corchado (THE CHASM), he also contributed some synths to this record. Main composer Roberto Valle also has strong connections with THE CHASM and played in the cult Mexican Death Metal horde CENOTAPH. And the drummer Antonio […]
What an inferno! THY INFERNAL hail with totally blasphemous Black Metal from start to finish. These guys from the USA perfectly know how to perform a real devastating whirlwind of crushing tunes. Pure Armageddon! After their MCD “Satan’s Wrath” this is their first real longplayer (and by the way the strongest album released by Napalm […]
Just one year after their debut album “Epitaph” the German THY FINAL PAIN are here again with a new output called “… Of Life And Death”. This band features the two former DEBAUCHERY members Simon Dorn (guitars) and bass player Marc Jüttner. THY FINAL PAIN are definitely an interesting band for those who are into […]
Futurist Metal, Cyper Death Metal, Electro Metal, Modern Metal? Well, a mix of FEAR FACTORY and almost new SAMAEL on a technical very high level is what THY DISEASE stands for. Technical, which means modern in the electronically way, and highly professional is their newest output “Anshur Za”, their fifth full-length recording and first one […]
Featuring two former members of EINHERJER and ENSLAVED, Norwegian THUNDRA have grown a six-piece since their conception in 1998. After releasing their debut full-length “Blood Of Your Soul” in 2000, THUNDRA, at least according to the bio, turned towards a more aggressive and complex sound with 2005 recorded “Worshipped By Chaos”. The newest effort sees […]
Professionally executed ’90s era inspired Black Metal, the second album by this Polish band released on Agonia Records. Sporting a very prominent, clear, yet solid production that to me seems to be absolutely wasted on this commonplace outing. Play-by-the-numbers songwriting definitely is the cancer within that is killing THUNDERBOLT. Speed for the sake of speed-laden […]
I think in one way or another you can find rough influence from scene veterans MENHIR and RIGER in nearly every German Pagan Metal band. This not automatically means that own ideas are not existing it’s just a further prove for the difficulties of turning back time and invent the wheel once more. THRUDVANGAR are […]
THRONEUM is one of those bands who are releasing so many recordings that it is very difficult to keep track and for me “Deathcult Conspiracy” is even the first release from them. Their newest output is their 5th full-length recording (next to many many split recordings) and a quite professional still carrying the typical underground […]
Although this is this the first time I encounter with polish THRONEUM I presume that the style they play hasn’t changed over the last 11 years of their existence. They sound is as raw as old INCANTATION and NECROVORE, are as blasphemic as BLASPHEMY and SARCOFAGO and play riffs Death Metal spawned in the late […]
I wanted to check out Polish THRONEUM for quite some time but somehow I never did… now this collection of old and partly rare recordings is the opportunity. This band is sworn to dark and thrashing maniacal Death / Black Metal exclusively, firmy rooted in the underground of the 80s / 90s. ASPHYX, TERRORIZER, POSSESSED, […]
