Seven Seals

Let's get right to the point. Germany's PRIMAL FEAR are about to release the finest album of its career. This is no JUDAS PRIEST tribute album and you'll hear nothing like the scream of "Metal is forreeevvveeerrr!" from last year's "Devil's Ground". That does not mean that the PRIEST influence is no...

Majestic

When Kai Hansen left HELLOWEEN way back when, he took a large portion of that band's eccentricity with him, put to great use in GAMMA RAY. The band's core has always been the European style of power metal that Hansen helped found, but GAMMA RAY has always been willing to indulge a gloriously ludicro...

Riot Detonator

The scream of "Warrrhhheeeeaaaaddddd!" (No, not the VENOM tune) to begin the second album from Norway's MINDGRINDER was my first clue that "Riot Detonator" would not be the industrial-edged, programmed death metal of 2004's "Mindtech". The previous release had its moments, but felt like a band that...
