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 ...
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 ...
This is my first full-length contact with Touch The Spider! of whom I knew a couple of songs and clips from the internet. For those of you who have not heard from Touch The Spider!, they are a two-man project that is rather productive as this is their fourth ...
Hailing from Glasgow, THE COSMIC DEAD are heavy psychedelic space travelers and this strictly limited cassette (150 copies) documents one of their latest trips into lysergic galaxies. The opening cut, 'The Black Rabbit', (which clocks in at 19:01 minutes) is a good test of whether you are or are ...
I discovered this Swedish band only about four years ago when Grooveyard Records released their debut full-length 'Beneath A Dying Sun'. This slab of 1970's influenced classic hardrock was very pleasing to my ears, and still is. It was a prime example of the fact that music does not ...

The Hollow Men are three Dutch guys who deliver a mixture of different Rock styles that make me think of the 90s immediately. That is mostly because of the vocals that remind me of a few singers from some so-called Alternative Rock bands. That might sounds worse than it ...
With their second album 'Center Of The Cyclone', THE :EGOCENTRICS impressively prove that they are not running out of ideas. It seems as if the band became weary of their epic monster jams, and instead focus on shorter, catchier songs. Despite the changes, THE :EGOCENTRICS still haven't lost ...
For a short time it looked as if Erik Larson (ex-Alabama Thunderpussy, ex-Axehandle, and a lots more) has joined Morne, because he was the drummer on their European tour in 2008, but then it all came totally different. Together with ...
