Dooooooom is fun. It is. It gets your head nodding and your bits moving in all the right ways . The guys and gal from Avatarium do Doom and they do it well. This quintet hail from Stockholm and have… Continue Reading →
The 13th Sepultura studio album, 7th with Derrick Green and the studio début of drummer Eloy Casagrande, is inspired by Austrian filmmaker Fritz Lang’s classic 1927 movie ‘Metropolis’ with socio-political lyrics by Andreas Kisser and Derrick Green. Musically it pulls… Continue Reading →
I have learnt from this expedition into Norwegian atmospheric black metal that Svadilfare is the name of a powerful horse in Norse mythology. “Makt til Uskyld” (Power of Innocence) certainly has a kick and is powerful. It’s interesting too. After… Continue Reading →
