In the current state of bands concentrating on “fast and dirty rock ‘n’ roll”, it’s really hard not to compare them to Motorhead. Here, Iron Bastards are a three piece, use a similar instrument set up and have a similar… Continue Reading →
What really sucks about this album is that for South African born vocalist Aleah Starbridge, its release is posthumous. She and Swallow The Sun guitarist Juha Raivio created Trees of Eternity as an acoustic collaboration, but it pretty soon morphed… Continue Reading →
Thorns (drums) who seems to head up this band has his fingers in multiple bands with Blut Aus Nord being the most recognised. Ably assisted by Ades (guitar and bass ) and Psaalm on vocals this debut release is packed… Continue Reading →
