Tales Of Demonic Possession
For a brief moment back there, CLOUDS TASTE SATANIC were musically earthbound. The NYC quartet's last release, "Cloud Covered", was a collection of covers, including a particularly inspired reading of CHICAGO's "If You Leave Me Now". Lockdown fever will do that, even to such dedicated space cadets....February 2, 2023

Feast Of The Repulsive Dead
Named after the hotel in cult director Lucio Fulci's grotesque classic "The Beyond", SEVEN DOORS proudly walk the well-trodden line between crushing, old-school death metal and mind-bending, bloody horror. This, it barely needs stating, is an excellent idea. The metal underground is awash with simil...January 30, 2023

KaliYuga
Liv Jagrell has always been a formidable presence. First emerging 20 years ago as frontwoman with the perennially excellent SISTER SIN, the Swedish singer oozed heavy metal integrity from the start. Since going it alone — albeit with the DIO-like caveat that LIV SIN is a band, not just a solo vehicl...January 25, 2023

At The Heart Of Wintervale
From the very start, TWILIGHT FORCE made it plain that their ambition knew no limits. On the surface, the Swedes were another symphonically inclined power metal band with a hard-on for the exploration of wild, fantasy realms, with additional LARP-ing possibilities for the truly devoted. Even on thei...January 16, 2023

Beyond The Black
Brimming with promise from the start, BEYOND THE BLACK began their career sounding not entirely distinct from the rest of the big-budget symphonic metal pack. Debut album "Songs of Love and Death" was full of great songs and vocalist Jennifer Haben had power and charisma in abundance, but this was s...January 11, 2023

Mater Larvarum
Born as a DEATH SS tribute act, but now several albums along a glittering but shadow-shrouded path of their own, DEATHLESS LEGACY should really be much better known. Their sound is rooted in heavy metal horror, of course, but also in the razor-sharp power metal anthemry of bands like POWERWOLF, the...December 8, 2022

The Majesty Of Decay
There is nothing quite like some rigorous independent thinking to make narrow-minded folk wet their beds. JUDICATOR have been one of power metal's most potent forces for some time, with a sound that owed plenty to BLIND GUARDIAN without ever borrowing directly from them, and that sounded neither ove...November 23, 2022

Lightwork
The last few years have found Devin Townsend in a somewhat fractious mood. 2019's "Empath" was one of his most extravagant and unhinged releases to date: an epic prog metal monolith that threw an extraordinary number of disparate ideas together, with sublime but startling results. Last year's "The P...October 31, 2022

Death, Where Is Your Sting?
After four acclaimed albums and nearly a decade of active service, the idea that AVATARIUM were ever just another side project for the endlessly prolific Leif Edling now seems ridiculous. If 2013's self-titled debut occasionally strayed a little too close to the CANDLEMASS mothership in terms of rif...October 19, 2022
