I wasn’t so much as rather taken with Sturmtiger’s blistering take on blackened death metal on Atomic Hammer, as pulverised as it rolled over me unconcerned with what I thought. So, flattened but still enthusiastic I was really pleased when… Continue Reading →
Ave Noctum’s Mark Eve recently caught up with Destroyer, bass player for UKBM war machine, Eastern Front for a quick chat about the stonking new record – ‘Descent Into Genocide’ AN: What have people’s responses to the new album been… Continue Reading →
It’s been almost four years since debut album ‘Blood On Snow’ was unleashed and we have been looking forward to new material from this English troop formed in Ipswich for some time. One of the reasons it has taken a… Continue Reading →
I won’t go too much into detail here, we all know Sabaton whether we love them or hate them, they’re everywhere! Since 1999 Sweden’s finest have been releasing music on war and dominating cities with their never-ending tours and appearances…. Continue Reading →
