Goatcraft Torment
Looking for a quality, no-nonsense black metal album that rips and snorts from start to finish? How about URGEHAL's "Goatcraft Torment"? Having formed in 1992, the group understands a thing or to about what it means to be a true Norwegian black metal band. Riffs slice through the air like scythes, d...October 30, 2006

The Burning Halo
Finding ponderous, majestic gothic metal with female vocals on Napalm Records is about as shocking as finding an egg coming out the ass of a chicken. The label has definitely cornered the market of late on romantic, dramatic Eurometal with various permutations of goth, doom and death mixed in. Swede...October 23, 2006

Soaring, epic, majestic progressive Viking metal from the Faroe Islands – how come they're not on top of the charts already?

The Black Flame
When WOLF first came onto the scene, their self-titled album cover sported a freaky-looking lupine fella, sort of a denim-and-leather Disco Stu as imagined by Maurice Sendak. Musically, the band stuck out like a fistful of sore thumbs, too — the power metal revival was kicking into high gear, but ma...October 2, 2006

Prone Mortal Form/Innocents
Make no mistake, this reissue is a labor of love, Boston's ONLY LIVING WITNESS not making enough of a dent even years after their demise to warrant this sort of archival caretaking.
