Metal Allegiance – Fallen Heroes (Nuclear Blast)

Although very much a celebration of all things, one aspect of Bloodstock Open Air Festival this year was those paying tribute to fallen heroes. As far as the metal gods are concerned the reaper has never been busier, embarking on… Continue Reading →

XII Boar – Beyond The Valley Of The Triclops (S/R)

Whiskey drenched vocals, Southern state groove and big ass riffs. These are three things you can say about fast rising UK stoner rock three piece XII Boar. Formed in 2010, the three piece have been riffing their way to the… Continue Reading →

Reactory – Heavy (F.D.A. Rekotz)

I completely forgot I was meant to be reviewing this. I don’t mean to say that I wasn’t listening to it repeatedly, what I’m saying is that it has such an 80’s thrash sound to it that it was easy… Continue Reading →

Nuke – S/T (Hells Headbangers)

Formed in Detroit back in 2014, Nuke are a five piece speed metal band who have one aim – play hard, fast and loud. This self titled effort is their debut full length release and given the snippets they have… Continue Reading →

Heretic – Underdogs Of The Underworld (Van)

Fifth album but these guys are sadly a new band to me, I confess. However when the PR says “Motörhead and the Misfits have an illegitimate son growing up listening to Celtic Frost and Slayer. This record sounds like that… Continue Reading →

Anthrax – Den Atelier, Luxembourg 09/06/16

Eviscerated Panda – So Far, So Good, So Panda (Sarah Tipper)

I doubt the author or anyone else for that matter expected the entrails of this particular panda to spread so far. Don’t run away if you are of a delicate disposition, this is not a report on a nasty Mondo… Continue Reading →

Parasit – A Proud Tradition of Stupidity (Cyclone Empire)

With recent releases by Extreme Noise Terror and Discharge – both blinding albums GO GET EM! – I was itching to get my ears around this bunch of brutality from Swedish D Beat Crusties Parasit. The band, formed in 2010… Continue Reading →

Lemmy Kilmister: Life Beyond Motorhead Collateral Damage -Alan Burridge (Iron Pages Books)

It’s a bit surreal to be writing a review which has been at least co-created by someone who has had such a large part to play in the formative teenage years of my life. I’m not actually talking about Lemmy… Continue Reading →

Lemmy: The Definitive Biography – Mick Wall (Orion)

Still seems strange, you know; a world where Lemmy no longer lives. I mean he was Lemmy, ferchrissake. If ever there was a character, and a guy, who epitomised the ro…. yeah yeah yeah. I know. We all do. Except… Continue Reading →

Hammer fight – Profound and Profane (Napalm)

Described as “Whisky drinkin’, Beer guzzlin’ bro’s”, Hammer Fight hail from Atlantic City, New Jersey, also known as the East Coast’s den of debauchery. Comprised of a copious amount of sleaze, dashes of classic metal, hard rock, punk and thrash… Continue Reading →
