Interview – Hail Of Bullets

Having set their sights on Russia, Japan and North Africa most recently, it was now time for Ave Noctum to fall in the firing line of Hail Of Bullets’ immense armoury. Rather than the blood, shit and severed limbs which… Continue Reading →

Dimaeon – Collapse of the Anthropocene (Layered Reality Productions)

Surprisingly, this is Dimaeon’s first full album in their eleven years of existence. The cv so far from these prolific live performers from The Netherlands shows that they have previously released two eps, taken part in a split “Frisian Metal… Continue Reading →

Sacrificium – Prey for Your Gods (Whirlwind Records)

This German death metal machine celebrate 20 years of existence with this effort ‘Prey For Your Gods’, a remarkable feat in this day and age but also a travesty when you hear bands that are as good as this laying… Continue Reading →

Kataklysm – Waiting For The End To Come (Nuclear Blast)

It’s been a few years since I caught up with Kataklysm, since 2004’s ‘Serenity In Fire’ in fact, although that’s not been a conscious decision to avoid them, just one of those cases where there are so many bands to… Continue Reading →

These Frenchmen known as Solekahn have been on quite a long hiatus since their 2004 debut album ‘The Great Divider’ hit planet Earth. For at least six of the last few years in fact, the band has been perfecting material… Continue Reading →

Pestilence – Obsideo (Candlelight)

The last new album I heard by Dutch death progenitors Pestilence was their 2009 comeback ‘Resurrection Macabre’. While a cool effort, it came nowhere near to the quality of the band’s early releases. On top of this material aspect, there… Continue Reading →

Interview – Pentagram Chile

30 years a very long time to wait for a band’s debut, even one from a band whose underground status amongst the death metal elite is unparalleled. Indeed fans of the Chilean Pentagram at that time in the 80s and… Continue Reading →

Kill Division – Destructive Force (Metal Blade)

For fans of a certain epic Dutch female-fronted band, the phrase ‘featuring two ex-God Dethroned members’ might ring a bell. In the case of Kill Division, who feature two different alumni of Henri Sattler’s extinct beast, this phrase makes a… Continue Reading →
