One of the first pen-pals I got in underground Metal music was from a Radio Station from Houston, a city that I have always been linked to by my family, and it was also one of the first flyers I received in my first letter while writing to promote bands from my city and a […]
Formed in Stockholm in 2020, this is the debut album from these Heavy Metal maniacs from Sweden. These kind of bands that are doing a “revival” of old school Metal with touches of early Speed Metal, to this half century Metal avenger maniac, recalls some great memories from those days. Add to that that the […]
Formed in 2017, this thunderous Heavy Metal band from Greece presents their second full-length. For a Heavy Metal maniac like me, Greece is usually represented more with bands like ROTTING CHRIST or SEPTIC FLESH, but they have always been a very good place for traditional Heavy Metal, yet probably not many bands in the style […]
You gotta be careful with French Black Metal. Yeah, there were the early, raw Black Legions bands such as TORGEIST, VLAD TEPES and MUTIILATION. But then you get into other bands that feel the need to throw out monologues in French, which, you know, isn’t intimidating-sounding in the least. No offense, French Black Metal friends. […]
The Death Metal band ROTPIT was formed back in 2020 and their first demo “Into The Rotpit” hit the scene through Selfmadegod Records. Now this international trio, which consists of guitarist Jonny Pettersson (WOMBBATH, HEADS FOR THE DEAD), singer Ralf Hauber (REVEL IN FLESH, HEADS FOR THE DEAD) and drummer Henrik Posingis (REVEL IN FLESH) […]
Italy is not really known for a large and great Death Metal scene. Yet there’s of course some Death Metal from the country known for its ancient legacy of the Roman Empire. Talking about Rome: the band I introduce to you today is from this town so rich of history. THRONE OF FLESH is a […]
It was already “Kill Grid”, the 2021 album of ENFORCED from Richmond, Virginia in the United States, which got reviews, promising them a glorious future. This five piece of true Metalheads with a solid Hardcore basic came around with a type of Thrash Metal that sounded fresh and spontaniously like almost anything else those days. […]
While we’re on the subject of hot shit from the USA, we can’t help but introduce and applaud the new band of Blake Ibanez, well known from POWER TRIP. In less than a quarter of an hour, a bunch of five guys making it clear how the wind is blowing over the fields of rancid, […]
In the United States there are two and a half records, which are considered to be the hottest shit existing under the sun at the moment. We have “War Remains”, the third full-length album of ENFORCED from Richmond, Virginia. There is also a debut EP called “Maniac” by FUGITIVE, a four piece from Texas and […]
Combining the sounds of early AMON AMARTH and mighty BOLT THROWER isn’t a bad idea at all, as this five piece, which is based around actual and former HEAVEN SHALL BURN members, delivers a hear- and honourable proof. A mixture of epic, mighty and melodical Death Metal which is rolling over the listener. Typical riffings […]
