Blaze Bayley har denne gangen trommet sammen et helt nytt band, med ønske om å dra musikken i en hardere retning. Det har han i og for seg lyktes bra med og det er kjapp og kraftfull heavy metal som strømmer ut av høyttalerne. Blaze synger bra og bandet gjør en god jobb, og spesielt på gitarsiden er det mye snacks å finne her. Låtmaterialet derimot holder ikke helt...
Razorwire er ett slags metal/hardcore rap band fra England. De driver med lett rapping og "fengende" refrenger, ispedd litt allsang og raske gitarsoloer. 'Wrapped in Lies' er bandets tredje utgivelse, og det første med ny vokalist, Dave Scragg, som visstnok er kjent fra den engelske hardcore scenen for å ha spillt gitar i Kismet HC og FuckHatePropaganda. De første 1000 kopiene av det nye albumet inneholder en bonus DVD...
Jeg lot meg ikke overbevise hundre prosent av forrige fullengder fra Blaze Bayley, til det var låtmaterialet enkelt og greit ikke godt nok. Denne gangen holder materialet høyere standard og da blir selvfølgelig det hele mer interessant. Nå revolusjonerer Bayley på ingen måte sjangeren med sin musikk, og det heller ikke til å stikke under sin stol at han har tatt med seg veldig mye fra vikartiden i Iron...
Spanish Caustic is, admittedly, a name that had slipped past me until now, despite a career reaching back to the early nineties. What they deliver on Inner Deflagration is unapologetically classic death metal: blasting drums, thick, heavy riffing, and some surprisingly tasteful lead guitar work woven throughout. The vocals sit in that medium‑low growl register, gritty enough to bite, yet clear enough to complement the band’s muscular sound. ...
Someone Is Dying is an album I stumbled upon by chance, but it quickly proved itself to be a discovery worth celebrating. Information about Leprosarium is scarce; beyond their Colombian origins and the fact that this release is independent, the band remains something of a mystery. As such, it’s unclear whether this marks their debut or if there are earlier recordings in their catalog. Musically, Leprosarium...
Endbringer marks the full‑length debut of Swedish melodic death metal outfit Abandon Agony, though attentive listeners will recognize four of its tracks from the earlier Dark Matter EP. True to their national lineage, the band leans heavily into the melodic death metal blueprint forged in Gothenburg more than three decades ago. Echoes of early In Flames and Dark Tranquillity run throughout the record, yet Abandon Agony approach the style...
With their 1991 debut Don’t Come Easy, American hard rockers Tyketto delivered one of the genre’s true melodic masterpieces, a record that should have dominated the era, yet somehow slipped through the cracks and remains a criminally underrated gem. In the years since, the band has weathered numerous lineup shifts and long stretches of silence, but still managed to release four additional studio albums between 1994 and 2016. ...
It’s not unlikely that my album of the year for 2026 comes from Denmark. Dawn Of Demise have returned with their seventh full‑length release, and while their catalogue has always been reliably brutal, Feed My Absurdity feels like a genuine leap forward. The band stays true to the formula that has defined their sound for years, meaning groove‑laden, predominantly mid‑tempo death metal delivered with precision, but everything here hits...
Released by Iron Fortress Records in late 2025, End of Eden, the debut album from American duo Primal Scourge arrived as a surprisingly refreshing force seemingly out of nowhere. The band, consisting of Austin Asmus (guitars, bass, vocals) and Rio Mariucci (drums, vocals), delivers a compelling blend of classic death metal and doom metal with a clear artistic vision. End of Eden spans an impressive range:...
Crimson Glory may have been formed as far back as 1983, but their career path has been anything but straightforward, marked by lengthy periods of silence followed by sporadic resurrections. The current incarnation of the band, active since 2023, brings together founding members Jeff Lords (bass), Dana Burnell (drums), and Ben Jackson (guitars) with newer recruits Mark Borgmeyer (guitars) and Travis Wills (vocals). The band’s self-titled...
