The June Frost
The days spent recording MOURNFUL CONGREGATION's "The June Frost" must have been overcast, painfully gloomy, and, somehow, frigidly cold (yes, in Australia). "The June Frost" just has that feel about it, all 60 minutes of its crushingly depressive and strangely alluring funeral doom. It's a keeper t...July 13, 2009

The Infection
CHIMAIRA is a band that's always played like they have something to prove. After an (at best) average debut, "The Impossibility Of Reason" roared in and earned them a spot amongst the powerhouses of the NWOAHM, while its self-titled follow-up was a monstrous display of a band that wasn't afraid to t...April 28, 2009

Evolution Through Revolution
Hard to believe it's been twelve years since BRUTAL TRUTH released the breakthrough "Sounds Of The Animal Kingdom". In retrospect though, it seems that absence can make the heart grind harder as "Evolution Through Revolution" is as chaotically creative as anything extreme metal has to offer. Never o...April 28, 2009
