Review: Slayer – World Painted Blood (2009)
1 day ago

Unlike many of their thrash peers from their 80’s heyday, Slayer has remained as heavy as ever, putting out album after album of pulse pounding, boundary pushing, audible heresy. However, many metalheads (i.e. those who don’t cut themselves in the name of the band as a form of ridiculous worship), have been critical of several [...]

Review: Evile – Infected Nations (2009)
3 days ago

First and foremost, let me preface this review by saying that my thoughts are with Evile after the untimely passing of bassist Mike Alexander. While not as a result of unnatural causes if you will, Mike’s passing reminds me too much of Cliff Burton’s death. Mike died right at the pinnacle of the band breaking [...]

Review: Factory of Dreams – A Strange Utopia (2009)
3 days ago

I was looking forward to this album for sometime from Portuguese prog metallers Factory of Dreams after listening to one song which I thought held a lot of potential. After waiting for several weeks, I finally received the full length A Strange Utopia, upon listening to it in its entirety a few times, I can [...]

Review: Aetherius Obscuritas – Black Medicine/Fekete Orvossag (2009)
8 days ago

Hungarian black metal. Just writing that makes it sound evil and foreboding doesn’t it? Aetherius Obscuritas have been around since 2002, but Black Medicine is my first exposure to the band, and it’s definitely a well received one.The vocals of Arkhorrl (who actually also records all the instruments) is the highlight of Black Medicine, they [...]

Check it Out! KYPCK – Cherno (2008)
8 days ago

I never thought of it really, but Soviet Russia, as a concept, was meant to be played in doom metal. The unbearable cold days, totalitarian oppression, and vodka….lots of vodka. What could spell doom more than the KGB dragging you out of a brothel by your toes for cursing Lenin in front of an undercover [...]

Review: Scar Symmetry – Dark Matter Dimensions (2009)
9 days ago

I have no qualms about revealing my utter admiration for the band known as Scar Symmetry. Their last two albums have been totally brilliant, so when I found out that vocalist Christian Ãlvestam was departing the band, I was quite dismayed as I never really thought Scar Symmetry would find a vocalist with the same [...]

Review: Anubis Unbound – Through Cursed Eyes (2008)

  • Album:
    Through Cursed Eyes

Baltimore’s Anubis Unbound, a metalcore/melodic death metal band, released their first full length last year in the form of Through Cursed Eyes. This is the first I have heard from this outfit, and one thing I am very happy to hear is a lack of deathcore in their music. While Through Cursed Eyes isn’t “old [...]

Delain’s Charlotte Wessels Can Sing…And looks Good Doing It!
12 days ago

Not the best audio, but between hers and Nightwish’s Marco Hietala vocals, the band’s live performance of “Control the Storm” from Delain’s latest album April Rain seemed like a damn good one. Oh, and Charlotte Wessels is incredibly smoking hot. Thank God she is in a metal band.

Review: Noriega – Desolo (2009)
14 days ago

Noriega is a band I have been waiting to appear on the scene. Combining metalcore and doom metal, Noriega are finally that bridge between the stoner/doom sensation of the last year or two, and the recent past’s indelible presence of metalcore. Ironically though, despite having a very modern image and a metalcore highlight (due in [...]
