Satan’s Satyrs – Don’t Deliver Us (Bad Omen Records)

Over a year has passed since Satan’s Satyrs released ‘Die Screaming’ (see Ave Noctum reviews passim) onto the world care of Bad Omen Records, and 2015 sees this happy relationship between band and label bare fresh fruit in the form… Continue Reading →

Saviours – Palace of Vision (Listenable)

Saviours are one of those bands that are hard to pin down into one category, they have plenty of metal and stoner included for good measure, the nearest comparison would be High On Fire or even the first release by… Continue Reading →

Speedtrap – Straight Shooter (Svart)

Their last release ‘Powerdose’ was one of the albums of the year on many lists when released in 2013, this hyper active speed and metal act had their eye on the prize for that one. With ‘Straight Shooter’, the energy… Continue Reading →

Hammercult – Built For War (SPV)

18 months ago or so I reviewed this bands sophomore and was mightily impressed with its approach and style as yet another Israeli band sees fit to let us know that their metal scene is alive and kicking furiously. Depending… Continue Reading →

Pentagram – Curious Volume (Peaceville)

The history of US doom metal legends Pentagram is one that if written as a novel would just seem too over the top to be even vaguely credible. Despite forming in the early 70’s and numerous close calls with fame… Continue Reading →

Ripper – Third Witness (Black Widow)

Firstly, this is not as I first suspected, a release from the leather lunged air-raid siren vocal chorded singer for hire Mr Owens, rather a release from the resurrected eighties Texan metal heads. That said, first track on ‘Third Witness’… Continue Reading →

Bonehunter – Evil Triumphs Again (Hells Headbangers)

Not in fact the latest dating app, Bonehunter are a filthy sounding metal-punk & roll crew from Olou, Finland. They’ve been around since 2011 and this is their first full length amongst a history of splits & singles. So what’s… Continue Reading →

Violentor – Maniacs (GFY Productions)

So here we have the latest offering from Italian filthmongers Violentor, for those unfamiliar Violentor are a shamelessly old school thrash/punk crossover band. I will never forget, I came across this band’s stuff for the first time when playing an… Continue Reading →

EVO ALGY – Damned Unto Death (High Roller)

EVO (Paul Evans/Paul Evo) is the guy from UK non-conformists Warfare and ALGY (Ward) is the original Tank bassist and founder. Based on their past history, I would expect a brash and harsh release, which you get in places. The… Continue Reading →

Motörhead, Rockhal Box, Esch/Alzette, Luxembourg 23/06/15

After the experience of last week’s Judas Priest gig, I’d be lying if I said I had any confidence that tonight’s crowd would be any better. But from the get-go, there was a tangible air of excitement among the masses… Continue Reading →

Distant Sun – Dark Matter (Metalism Records)

Distant Sun are a three piece from Moscow, Russia. Playing a brand of metal which could best be described as one part power metal to one part speed metal and one part thrash, the band has a heavier take on… Continue Reading →

Graveyard Shifters – High Heels & Broken Bones (Eternal Sound Recordings)

Now I may not be the most dyed-in-the-wool punk out there, but I do enjoy a good old rattle of my small punk bones. I think the thing I look for most is that great punk or metal punk riotous… Continue Reading →
