It’s so cool to have these guys back in full force again. After a rather half-assed reunion a couple of years ago with a line-up that by no means did justice to the true GOREAPHOBIA legacy, original members Chris Gamble (bass / vocals), Craig Smilowski (drums), Alex Bouks and Henny Piotrowski (guitars) finally got together […]
As a matter of fact, GOLGOTHA have been around for quite a while. The act debuted with “Caves Of Mind” in 1994. The sonic vision of these folks oscillates somewhere between THE SINS OF THY BELOVED (without violins, though), THEATRE OF TRAGEDY, LACRIMAS PROFUNDERE and MANDRAKE. Whether this is intentional with respect to their sound […]
Seems the black tide keeps lapping at my heels as yet another band of this ilk rises from the Absu to spit forth a venomous poisoned curse. From Madrid hail GODÜS, unbeknownst to these ears until now. What good that can be said about this band is that this forsaken, Black trinity of Metal players […]
Extreme Black Metal from Spain offers this project of WORMED, NÜLL members on their debut CD out now on Xtreem Music. Whereas the influences of such (in)famous acts as DARKTHRONE, ZYKLON B and JUDAS ISCARIOT are obviously present in GODÜS sound something is obviously missing and turns GODÜS not into THE new mediterranean Black Metal […]
GODLESS RISING already established themselves in the Death Metal underground with two killer albums “Rising Hatred” and “Battle Lords”, but “Trumpet Of Triumph” is somewhat of a change in that, as it features a new guitar and bass player Toby Knapp (ex – WAXEN, ONWARD) who replaced long time axe shredder Paul Flynn. Also, for […]
What a fucking, killer surprise!!! VITAL-fucking-REMAINS worship all along!! Well, in the case of GODLESS RISING, this is – by all means – no seer coincidence since the band is consisted mostly of ex-VITAL REMAINS members. I admit that I have somehow lost interest in VITAL REMAINS after “Dawn Of The Apocalypse” and I guess […]
From mighty Canada hails GODLESS NORTH with their latest effort “Summon The Age Of Supremacy”, offering us nothing but true northern Black Metal in the veins of the early 90s. Nothing special? Well, when I first put in this album, I really thought that it was nothing special, and I still think that this album […]
GODLESS is a band / project in activity since 1994 and led by Chris Miumbwa. From what I have understood, Chris had difficulty to gather a proper line-up around him in the past, so I am not too sure if he handles all the instruments on this, but I guess it is probably the case. […]
GODHATE are a brutal 4 piece Death Metal band from Sweden and they really deliver the goods on their latest album, “Equal In The Eyes Of Death”, the bands 7th release (if you take their demo’s into account). At times reminding me of KREATOR, CHIMAIRA and DECAPITATED, GODHATE unleash waves of unrelenting modern Death Metal […]
GOD FORBID? Yes, I heard that name before but for some reason rather expected some SUFFOCATION clone behind it. Completely wrong! This is sort of melodic Death Metal and song No. 2 for example, ‘Antihero’, reminds me quite a bit of the Gothenburg style, especially the harmonious leads. The overall appearance of this New Jersey […]
