DIXIE WITCH (Let It Roll) CD

12/16/2011

Yes, I'm a huge fan of Texas' DIXIE WITCH. They are the perfect embodiment of a heavy power trio that is driven by the immortal spirit of rock 'n' roll. All this is rounded off by a soulful and positive vibe that is hard to find these days in heavy music. ...

ELDER (Dead Roots Stirring) 2LP/CD

12/14/2011

2011 saw the follow-up to ELDER's debut album from 2008, which already showed the band to have great potential. With 'Dead Roots Stirring' the three-piece really took it to the next level for them, you can feel they have grown and matured as a band. The five songs on the album ...

LEATHER NUN America (Kult Occult) CD

12/13/2011

There is no denial. I really love Leather Nun America. And if you would listen to the first few riffs after the introductional sample in 'Murderkkult' you do not need to ask why. These guys got the groove. The groove that could apply to all the riff rockers and stoners but ...

THE WOUNDED KINGS (In The Chapel Of The Black Hand) CD

12/13/2011

While I was listening to 'In The Chapel Of The Black Hand', the third and newest album of The Wounded Kings, lately I had to think about a conversation I once had with a guy I met in the town I used to study in. He found out I was into ...

THE HUMAN CONDITION (Modern Maze) CD-R

12/13/2011

Since quite a few years England has been incubating new Doom bands with a regularity that is both amazing and terrifying. You can sometimes just wonder where all these people are coming from and where have they been years ago? In the case of The Human Condition the answer is rather ...

DOOMDOGS (Unleash The Truth) 2LP/CD

12/13/2011

The DoomDogs return with a new output called 'Unleash The Truth'. Is that an imperative? Do I have to? Okay. To keep it short, I just say, this thing rocks. Buy it. For those that do indeed need a more detailed reason why, here it is: The guys from Sweden give ...

MISTY MORNING (Saint Shroom) 12"

12/13/2011

This is Misty Morning's second release on Doomanoid Records. I must admit that I do not own their debut EP. I had listened to a few songs and samples online but it seems like it did not catch me enough to get the EP. I think I remember thinking "Nice but ...

RISING (To Solemn Ash) LP/CD

12/13/2011

Rising were unknown to me until I received their promo-CD. But the Danish band must have done something interesting and right to get on the radar of Exile On Mainstream Records who present their first "Metal"-release with Rising's debut 'To Solemn Ash'. I must admit after having read the info sheet ...

BABY WOODROSE (Love Comes Down) LP/CD

10/26/2011

I was very pleased when I received the news that Bad Afro Records will re-release 'Love Comes Down', which is the fourth studio album of BABY WOODROSE. Until now it was definitely not easy to get a copy of this record, due to the very fact that it was ...

PENTAGRAM (When The Screams Come) DVD

10/16/2011

A PENTAGRAM DVD was long overdue and there could be no better time for the release than 2011 because this year marks the 40th anniversary of the band. But if you take it accurately, the first phase of PENTAGRAM ended in the very late 1970's. Then there was DEATH ROW, ...
