I suspect that there are no UK metal bands who I want to like more than Old Corpse Road. They seem to want to play live at the drop of a hat and that kind of work ethic can only… Continue Reading →
Crumbling buildings, devastation, rain: the scene is set. The picture on the sleeve serves as backdrop to the spooky and sad world that Australian band Wither portray. Steadiness, a constant but discreet whistling and croakings are central to this essentially… Continue Reading →
Trillion Red and the man behind them Patrick Brown are back with a debut album following on from last years EP taster ‘Two Tongues.’ Said EP slightly confused me although on the whole I certainly enjoyed it whilst saying I… Continue Reading →
So what can a relatively new band bring to an already overcrowded folk metal field, other than more tin whistles played at break-neck speed? Well, fortunately, there is frankly so much dross that anything half-decent shines like a beacon in… Continue Reading →
It is that man again, Rogga Johansson (Paganizer, Ribspreader, Revolting, Demiurg, etc.) the most prolific death metal writer and performer of recent years. Countless projects and bands are of his creation and this time he is aided by lyricist Jill… Continue Reading →

These German fellows have been around since 2000, rather surprisingly. I say surprisingly because although the name rings a tiny bell somewhere in my head, ‘The Art of Coming Apart’ is my first actual encounter with the band. To herald… Continue Reading →
Back once more into the comforting arms of atmospheric/ambient black metal. It is a place I like to be, I admit, as I often think of them as soundtracks to lost films. Here it is all about the atmosphere and… Continue Reading →
Any band with a name like this is either aiming to be taken light heartedly or just plain doesn’t give a shit what people feel about them. I can’t imagine ever wearing a shirt with Dick Tator on the front,… Continue Reading →
Remember Dan Spitz, go on think back, yep that’s him one time guitarist on the first six Anthrax albums before leaving music altogether and becoming a master Swiss watchmaker. Mr Spitz also states he has obsessive compulsive disorder and that… Continue Reading →
