I thought I’d give a punt out to Berzerker Legion, which as it turns out is a bit of a death metal “supergroup” of sorts. Starring Fred Isaksson (Dark Funeral) – Bass, Tomas Elofsson (Hypocrisy – live) on guitars with… Continue Reading →
I was rather indifferent to this French band’s debut album, “Therapy Of The Evil”, as it came across as safe and lacking ingenuity but three years is a long time in music as their split EP with Undead Vision and… Continue Reading →
With a name like The Glad Husbands you could be forgiven for thinking that they can be found playing second fiddle to Mumford and Sons at a cheese rolling festival in Gloucester; however you’d be way off the mark. As… Continue Reading →
Last time out, Serious Black’s ‘Magic’ was a solid and consistent offering which offered some progression on the band’s style and approach to making music but it didn’t really break any new ground in terms of stand out musical moments…. Continue Reading →
