Another little tease from US doomheads Orchid. A three tracker with one from the forthcoming Nuclear Blast full length (Wizard Of War), one apparently exclusive to this EP (Demon’s Eyes) and one re-recording from the Capricorn debut (Albatross). Wizard Of… Continue Reading →
Has it really been three years since the last Darkthrone album? They normally shat them out like a tramp does mouldy brown water after a night foraging in bins behind the back of the local kebab shop. You may well… Continue Reading →
Formed in 2009 to pay homage to the glory days of death metal, and even gigging as a virtual covers band, it seems that Icons Of Brutality’s aspirations were quite modest. Following a couple of line-up changes though, the Dutchmen… Continue Reading →
The colourful sleeve picture is of a city at war, lightening, barbed wire and skeletons. This is the image of the coolly-named Canadian old-school thrash metal band Mortillery. Destruction is their world in common with the band of that name…. Continue Reading →
`Godless’ is the second, filth-covered, nasty, crusty old-school, death metal album from these surprisingly fresh faced and modern looking Danes. This eight-track opus has `old’ written all over it. The production is so authentic you can almost hear the dust… Continue Reading →
