This powerful live document by the ever-awesome Iron Maiden is a superbly mixed and nicely packaged offering with a set list that is brilliantly put together.

The living legends that are Venom unearthed and spat forth the truly revolutionary "Welcome to Hell" assault all the way back in 1981 and nothing has been the same ever since that fateful event. It is amazing to think that they are still going strong and releasing great music nowadays albeit with a slightly reconfigured…

FIGHTING SHADOWS AND PITCH BLACK OMENS – An interciew with FRETMIDEN

As the cool band name might suggest, the Swedish horde Dreadful Fate is firmly rooted in old-school black/thrash metal, which is to say bestial and violent metal extremity that harkens back to how many of the pioneers did it back in those glorious and murky 80s. This shit is fucking explosive and even downright lethal…

The gritty Norwegian hard rockers Duckwalk Chuck released this album of theirs quite a while ago, so it is not exactly brand new as such, but I reckon we ought to have a closer look at it all the same, would you not agree? High-octane riffs that will pummel you to death and fiery vocals…

This self-titled effort by the US black/death metal horde Funeral Chant is a raw, barbaric, and unsettling affair, but it possesses depth and texture, much more so than many other similar bands and artists out there who opt for an old-school sound and attitude. The great thing about Funeral Chant is that they write brilliant…

Fretmiden is an interesting and relatively young Norwegian metal outfit hailing from the rainy city of Bergen, and this 9-track effort of theirs entitled "Omen" is a well-written and memorable slab of brutality and groove. These guys are largely inspired by modern extreme metal and metal core, but the cool thing about these fuckers is…

The seasoned veteran that is Charlie Bonnet III has been out there for years now, touring and releasing raw and gritty music with soul and depth to it. This 6-track EP of his, which is entitled "Sinner With a Song", blends and mixes different elements relating to blues, classic rock, country music, and even a…

This is one of the most peculiar and strange albums that I have come across this year. "Bydyra" by Norwegian prog rockers Tusmørke is a…well, fuck me, I am not even sure exactly what this is or how to classify it. It is basically like a musical of sorts for children yet the topics and…
