The Extra...

It is great to see a band like LIGHTNING SWORDS OF DEATH on a big league label like Metal Blade. The last album I reviewed from the Los Angeles-based act was "The Golden Plague" on underground label Blackmetal.com. That disc showed a lot of potential in a thrashy black metal attack that relied on ir...

Collectors of the King

Listening to RAGNAROK's "Collectors of the King", one would be hard pressed to think of a description other than traditional Norwegian black metal.

Never getting the recognition due the band outside of Europe, "Disgust at th...

Draw Down the Moon

While I've never outright "disliked" ICARUS WITCH, I've never found their albums to be especially impacting nor have I gotten in line with what seemed to be a parade of praise from critical circles. Solid albums, yes; ones with long-lasting appeal, no. Some of that had to do with Matthew Bizilia's s...

Die Among Heroes

Potential is a tricky thing to notice. Sometimes it just takes one really well-delivered chorus, or a particularly catchy guitar hook, on an otherwise by-the-numbers musical death march, to give you pause, make you re-evaluate the band and at least see their possible future greatness. For me, and fo...
