This is a project which needs no introduction. It is the third offering from the reunification of the Brazilian thrash metal rhythm section which churned classic albums like “Arise”, “Chaos A.D” and “Roots”. Igor and Max, now on good terms,… Continue Reading →
What’s the matter with me? I could’ve had the new Anaal Nathrakh sent through but NO the utter child in me that actually likes the idea of Finnish loons in rubber monster outfits playing 80’s trash rock won out and… Continue Reading →
Stick the word ‘Lovecraftian’ in a description and I’ll always give it a second glance. It’s a reflex action as despite all the crap shovelled under the word. It is still the measure for all true horror for me particularly… Continue Reading →
