This is their follow up to 2018’s ‘Judge Not’, a relatively big gap, but with other projects in mind, the time is actually about right Blitzkrieg to return with a self-titled release. From the opening tune ‘You Won’t Take Me… Continue Reading →
I remember Withering Surface from seeing them play live in London in the early 00s. Who they were supporting I can’t remember but I do remember going home with a good impression after seeing they were a decent band whose… Continue Reading →
It’s amazing when you hear a band for the first time, then discover that they’ve been around for over 30 years. Granted there was a major hiatus between their second album in 2003 and this one. The three core members… Continue Reading →
Vanir have been about for a lot longer than you might think. The Danish Viking metal merchants actually produced their first album back in 1991, though I got into them back in around 2016 with the “Aldar Ruk” record. It’s… Continue Reading →
Danish Metallers Manticora do love a concept album. Two linked together if they can manage it, which of course they did with the “Black Circus” duo fifteen years ago, and then more recently with the “To Kill To Live To… Continue Reading →

Well this is all very jolly isn’t it? Bringing the fun back to Folk Metal (just look at that cover art – was it ever going to be anything else?), Danish Metal band Trold might be relatively new to the… Continue Reading →
So many Tygers Of Pan Tang album reviews I’ve read in the past 20 years start by referencing the band’s NWOBHM past, many choosing to try and draw comparisons with their early 80’s sound and not really focusing massively on… Continue Reading →
On the weekly list of reviews that comes out I put my hand in to cover this album by Danish act Heidra because I read the band had some Amorphis traits in their music. They weren’t wrong it has to… Continue Reading →
