Terrorstahl – Schweigen (Deutsch Rock)

A new name to me, but this German gang had a debut album out in 2019 and this five track EP is a follow up. It was described as thrash/groove metal. So of course it isn’t. Opener, the title song,… Continue Reading →

Hellsword – Cold Is The Grave (Emanzipation Productions)

Nocturnal – Serpent Death (Dying Victims Productions)

German black thrashers Nocturnal have not released anything since 2014, except for an EP last year in fact, but that was the last time I heard from them. I remember chaotic gig madness in London way back in 2008, of… Continue Reading →

This German black thrash band has an extensive discography with eight previous albums, numerous splits and EPs and a slew of live albums too and despite this fact are probably still as underground now as they ever were, though with… Continue Reading →

Templar / Barbatos – Split (Left Hand Patches / Quiet Notes)

Wratheon – Black Thrash Mass (S/R)

Mongrel’s Cross – Arcana, Scrying And Revelation (Hells Headbangers Records)

Four fifths of this band are from Australia but the other fifth in the ranks is Proscriptor (Absu) who adds his considerable vocal abilities to this third album from a band whose name intrigued me, firstly because it doesn’t make… Continue Reading →
