First 'Mer Morte' has been released as a limited edition LP on the Spanish label Throne Records in 2008, but Crucial Blast Records was kind enough to re-release this heavy chunk on CD in 2010. 'Mer Morte' is MONARCH's fourth album, and anyone who is familiar with this French ...
Never heard of this band and I am very surprised considering they are from Portugal. This is their first album, released through Raging Planet Records at the end of 2009. MISS LAVA mix heavy rock with anthemic pop melodies without losing their powerful heaviness. Not the most inventive ...
'Land' is definitely the most abstract album that Cosmic Lava received in 2009 and there is no doubt that it's only made for a very few people. Even after listening to the album pretty often, it's very dificult to find access to it, because it seems to come from another world. ...
I had already written a few lines about the history of MISERICORDE so if you are interested please just read the review of their first demo. So I will limit myself to the following: Founded by ex-Year Zero bassist Murray ...
MOS GENERATOR (Destroy! The Mos Generator Volume 2001 - 2008) 2LP/CD
Washington's power trio MOS GENERATOR also belongs to those few bands who split up too soon. Believe it or not, they never recorded one worse song and if you ever had the chance to see this band on stage then you know their powerhouse live performance. Well, what makes ...
MISERICORDE (Soundscapes For The Disenchanted) MCD-R
Does anyone remember the English band Year Zero? It was in the 90's, when Hellhound Records released their two albums 'Nihil's Flame' and 'Creation' that were really good. Well, they're still good. After the end of Hellhound, Year Zero disappeared from the picture what was really sad. It's no ...
As I have said before and I will say it again, MORNE is one of the best heavy crust bands at the present time. Founded by guitarist/vocalist Milosz Gassan (ex-Filth Of Mankind), they embody the perfect symbiosis of later Amebix and early Sacrilege without giving up their own musical identity. ...
It is incomprehensible that Dennis Cornelius is still relatively unknown in the world of doom metal. In contrast to a lot of other musicians he has very individual ideas that are more than just a re-hash of old Black Sabbath ...
Unfortunately, MONDO CADA's debut is also their swansong, and that's a real shame because what this four English guys are doing here is really impressive. Calculon Records may have thought something like that and took the opportunity to release this explosive recordings in 2009. The music of MONDO CADA ...
That is really pretty respectable what Swedish power trio MANGROVE delivers us here. 'Endless Skies' is their debut in 2009 for Transubstans Records, exclusively distributed by Black Widow Records, and it is dominated by the heavy rock of the 1970's. The whole thing is pepped up with a touch of early ...
