Lucifer – Lucifer I (Rise Above)

Lucifer is the new band formed by vocalist Johanna Sadonis after the break up of her previous outfit The Oath in 2014. After one single release earlier in the year (the Black Sabbath-fan baiting ‘Anubis’), the first full-length album comes… Continue Reading →

Master Massive – The Pendulum (A Metal Opera) (Vicisolum)

Master Massive are a very enigmatic band. There isn’t much information floating about on the internet about them and the press sent with this release was less than helpful. After some digging, I managed to discover that the foundations for… Continue Reading →

George Kollias – Invictus (Season of Mist)

There are plenty of artists out there that have decided to release ‘solo’ albums. This one is slightly different as it has George Kollias writing all music and lyrics and playing all the instruments to boot. Sure he has some… Continue Reading →

Taran – S/T (Odium Records)

As a black metal die hard, I hang my head in shame at having never been initiated into Taran’s filthy world of black metal, despite them having been around since 2002, and including members of Arkona (Polish black metal variety,… Continue Reading →

Daylight Dies – The Candlelight Years (Candlelight)

Considering they formed way back in 1996 it was a surprise to realise that Carolinians Daylight Dies have only released four albums over their extensive career. Obviously they are a band to take their sweet time at things. This re-issue… Continue Reading →

Discreation – Procreation of the Wretched (FDA Rekotz)

This German death metal troop have been recording for some time, this is my first experience of them and in true FDA Rekotz label fashion, this has end result that is a touch special! If you take the heritage of… Continue Reading →

Dames Of Darkness 5 – The Robin 2, Bilston 10/5/15

Day Two With Incassum pulling out of the festival at the last minute Enkelination and Skarlett Riot were to do extended sets plus rumours that the Winter In Eden singer had lost her voice proved true, but more of that… Continue Reading →

The Vintage Caravan – Arrival (Nuclear Blast)

My first encounter with this young Icelandic rock outfit was supporting Grand Magus in spring 2014 where I caught their last song and was immediately blown away by their energy and vibrancy. With two releases under their belts and their… Continue Reading →

Revolting – Visages Of The Unspeakable (FDA Rekotz)

Old Rogga Johansson’s a busy bloke. This must be the third album in as many months I’ve had through that he’s played on and he makes Shane Embury look like a bit of a lazy bastard. This is their fifth… Continue Reading →

Winterfylleth – The Fathers of Albion An Anthology 2007-2013 (Candlelight)

While focusing on career retrospectives for likes of Darkthrone and Emperor, it’s easy to forget that there are newer bands, closer to home, building up their own respectable discography right under our noses. Candlelight black metal stalwarts, Winterfylleth, have rapidly… Continue Reading →

PreEmptive Strike 0.1 – Pierce Their Husks (Sonic Hell Records)

Warning, rampaging insects invading the cyber industrial zone! It would appear that PreEmptive Strike 0.1 have a bit of an infatuation with the Robert Heinlein penned classic Starship Troopers. It could be this or any other 50s B Movie feature… Continue Reading →

Dames Of Darkness 5 – The Robin 2, Bilston 9/5/15

DAY 1 Ever hungry and curious for new ventures in my gigging journey saw me travel to the 5th version of Dames Of Darkness, an event with a cult following of hardened fans of female fronted metal that shared some… Continue Reading →
