Gouge – Beyond Death (Hells Headbangers)

Perdition Temple – The Tempter’s Victorious (Hell’s Headbangers)

King Dude, The Death Letter, Markers – London The Black Heart 16/3/15

Vholdghast – Låt oss förbrinna (Vicisolum)

Magic Kingdom – Savage Requiem (AFM)

Magic Kingdom…Magic Kingdom…oh yeah, debuted in 1999 with an album of decent Power Metal struggling through ropey production and wrapped in a terrible cover! Well, everyone has to start somewhere and follow-up “Metallic Tragedy”, belied it’s portentous title and was… Continue Reading →

Weak Aside – The Next Offensive (FDA)

Originally forming as Spearhead, but changing their name to Weak Aside before their debut album, this is the second album (or third, if you count their 2007 demo) from this German death metal crew. Five years after ‘Ghostleader’, ‘The Next… Continue Reading →

Omega Soul – Void (FDA)

Normally you wouldn’t associate Germany with stoner infused southern rock grooves, but Omega Soul are here to change that. Formed in Nürnberg in 2009, the 5 piece underwent some line up changes whilst releasing two demo’s before setting on the… Continue Reading →
