INFERNO 2016 – Day 3 – John Dee & Rockefeller

Blood Red Throne is undoubtedly the most recognized name in Norwegian death metal, and with good reason. From the moment the members entered the stage, they showed the audience of Inferno what brutal music is supposed to sound like. A stoundingly good performance with high energy on the stage and a great, big audience. Alot…

BILLY SATELLITE – II

Shelved for 30 plus years due to label shuffling, Billy Satellite reunited for a show at Slims in San Francisco, CA on January 31st, 2010 – pushing interest along for this material to finally see the light of day. The five-piece play a guitar-oriented brand of melodic rock – very much in line with early…

INFERNO 2016 – Day 2 – John Dee & Rockefeller

ICS Vortex showed Rockefeller that heavy metal doesn’t always have to be bruting and dark. With a nice attitude and a very folkish appearance, Vortex and his crew delivered one of the most solid performances of the festival yet. Showcasing good old Borknagar songs as well as his own material. The energy was great both…

PEO – Welcome to the Party

You can always count on AOR Heaven to offer up a proven veteran in the music industry and let them showcase their skills sets today. Peo Pettersson probably has gained most attention for his work in acts like the Swedish Christian metal band Leviticus and Axia – so this record "Welcome to the Party" includes…

Det amerikanske powermetallbandet Kamelot kommer endelig tilbake til Trondheim og Byscenen, lørdag 30. april!

HUMAN FORTRESS – Defenders of the Crown (re-release)

Rare is the day that you have an original label re-release an album and have the band record two exclusive demo tracks with their previous vocalist – but that’s what we have here on "Defenders of the Crown". Hitting the streets for the first time in 2003, this German power metal band had a strong…

RICK WAKEMAN – Starship Trooper

The legendary Rick Wakeman (ex-Yes) hardly needs any introduction. Few have released more albums than he has, and his many appearances on albums and songs by others are countless. A true workhorse, if you will. "Starship Trooper" is a compilation album on which Wakeman has interpreted songs by The Doors, Tool, Pink Floyd, and The…

INFERNO 2016 – Day 1 – John Dee & Blå

John Dee  Vredehammer opened up with full force on one of the club scenes. The sound was ok, but nothing great. Musically, the band delivered great form of extreme metal and they delivered it in a nice fashion on stage. No props or make up, just the artists playing and giving everything. The performance was…

MISTUR – In Memoriam

«In Memoriam» is one of those albums that looks instantly appealing the very minute you glance at its cover and read through the titles and so on, so naturally I was quite intrigued by the whole thing. The epic and majestically sweeping "Downfall", which serves as the introductory song, rather quickly told me that I…

MISTUR – In Memoriam

Its been 7 long years since Misturs brilliant debut "Attende", an album that took its natural place among several great sognametal releases which followed in the wake of the mighty Windir. Come 2016, Mistur reveals a more mature and complex take on the art of metal, while the spirit from the past lives on. There…

ANGERTEA – Snakes in Blossom

Together since 1996, Angertea have released four previous studio albums as well as having the great fortune to work with renowned producer Neil Kernon (Queensrÿche, Judas Priest). Not a bad resume for this Hungarian trio – who on their fifth full-length "Snakes in Blossom" perform an eclectic experimental grunge metal cocktail through these 10 tracks.…

ELDER – Bergen – Hulen

Following a downright terrible week at work it was a blessing to spend a few hours at one of my favorite venues in Bergen, namely Hulen, in the company of three US bands who were all totally different to one another and yet perfectly compatible at the same time. It was nice to see that…

THE WRETCHED END – In These Woods, From These Mountains

«In these Woods, From these Mountains» er den tredje fullengderen til Notoddenbandet The Wretched End. Skiva er blitt mottatt av de aller fleste med stor glede og man kan lese diverse steder online at dette er et monster av et album. Jeg bestemte meg vel ganske tidlig i lytteprosessen min at det muligens var en…

ABNORMALITY – Mechanisms of Omniscience

Coming together in 2005, Marlborough, Massachusetts extreme metal band Abnormality have a new deal in place with Metal Blade, and the fruits of their hard labor come bursting through on this second full-length "Mechanisms of Omniscience". Keying in on technicality while retaining hooks and mid-tempo groove sections can be a delicate balancing act, but the…
