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 ...
This is just the sort of modern sound that bores me to death. Believe me, I listened to it many times, forcing myself to give it a chance even though I had to constantly fight the urge to turn it off, but it never did grow on me. Hailing ...
First off: MEMORY DRIVEN's newest album, 'Animus', is certainly nothing short of brilliant. There is no doubt that guitarist/vocalist Dennis Cornelius is a master at the top of his game. His work with Revelation and Place Of Skulls has been heralded but I cannot help but feel that he still ...
It's nice to see that Finnish doom brethren SLUGSTAIN have returned, because their 2010 demo really impressed me and since then I watched out for new material. Well, here it is. But there's another band they have brought with them and ...
Hailing from Detroit, MEAN MOTHER make it easy for the listener because the title of their first album contains an appropriate reference to the musical content. It's time for some good old rock 'n' roll. Having said that, MEAN MOTHER do not offer the traditional 1950's version, but ...

At the end of 2010, I received this wonderful album from Ripple Music and since then I do not want to miss it. MODERN DAY MOONSHINE has nothing at all to do with heavy riffs or downtuned guitars. Instead, the listener is invited to a stroll through U.S. American ...
Unfortunately, 'Wheels Of Purgatory' is just as polished and clean as the Pontiac on front of the cover. That's a pity, because actually MOTORJESUS do almost everything right. Christoph Birx is a talented singer and his expressive style increases the value of recognition, even though he reminds me more ...
In the 20th year of their existence, and who would have thought that a German Doom band would slow the pace of Metal down so many years, Mirror Of Deception present their fourth album called 'A Smouldering Fire', which in this respect is a damn fitting name for this album. ...
