The Hate Colony – Navigate (Trondercore)

Sparzanza – Circle (Black Cult)

18 years in the business, Sparzanza are a fine example of heavy and dark Swedish groove metal. Still going strong, the band recently released “Circle”, the band’s seventh full length recording and in their home country, it entered the charts… Continue Reading →

Emergency Gate – Infected (Fireball / Soulfood)

The 6th album by the Bavarian sextet contains the same line-up as the album they released at the beginning of last year and is in a similar vein. And sadly for me Daniel Schmidle’s keyboards still feel overused, especially when… Continue Reading →

Zeit – S/T (S/R)

You don’t need much time for this two-track blast from Zeit. Five minutes will do it. Zeit are from Italy and arose from the ashes of As The Sun who released a very good and lively album called “Event Horizon”… Continue Reading →

Deadlock – The Re-Arrival (Lifeforce)

Speedblow – Behold The Darkness (Trailblazer)

Over the years, Athens has gave the world many things – it is cited as the birthplace of modern democracy, it was home to the great thinkers Plato and Aristotle and it is often referred to as the ‘cradle of… Continue Reading →

SlavEATgoD – The Skyline Fission (No Regrets Records)

An interesting intro to the second album release from this Athens-based band gives a suggestion of something djenty-progressive with electro touches. Such intros can be indicative of what follows or meaningless. Here it’s indicative, at least for the following two… Continue Reading →

Eths – Ex Umbra In Solem (Season Of Mist)

I doubt I was the only person who was rather surprised to hear that singer Candice Clot had decided to call it a day and leave Marseille based heavyweights Eths. The band had not long since released excellent album III… Continue Reading →

Vortice – Host (Alone Records)

If you like your metal to be modern, heavy, energetic, melodic and djenty, this is for you. Vortice come from Barcelona and are releasing their third album with “Host”. They were presented to me as a band who play thrash,… Continue Reading →
