House By The Cemetary – The Mortuary Hauntings (Pulverised Records)

“It’s Rogga time,” but let’s face it when is it not? With so many bands on the go Mr Johansson is normally kicking about somewhere or the other. I decided due to the ties with Luci Fulci, naming themselves after… Continue Reading →

Rebel Souls – Dawn Of Depravity (Blood Fire Death)

Deicide – Overtures Of Blasphemy (Century Media)

Classic is a word that gets chucked around an awful lot these days with many people claiming various, generally unheard of albums as undeniable testaments to Metal’s history. Sure enough bands may well be influential in their own right but… Continue Reading →

Monstrosity -The Passage Of Existence (Metal Blade)
