Unplugged and Strung Up

SAXON are one of the immortals of heavy metal. That's a fact.

Aftershock

God bless MOTÖRHEAD. At age 68, Lemmy Kilmister, of all the genuine rock 'n roll bad boys left to us, is monitoring his health. Having had to postpone numerous live dates including a European leg that just would've gotten started, the unstoppable Lem was recently sidelined after doctors discovered a...

Serpents Unleashed

Quickly turning into ol' reliables of the neo-thrash circuit, SKELETONWITCH make next to no modifications to their turbulent speed routine for their fifth album, "Serpents Unleashed".

Of all the symphonic and folk metal acts out there, LEAVES' EYES is one of the least-touted despite boasting a worldwide audience. It hardly has anything to do with their talent. NIGHTWISH, WITHIN TEMPTATION and EPICA overshadow them in the popularity department, but LEAVES' EYES latest album "Symph...

Earth

English experimetallists MONSTERWORKS describe themselves as "progressive thrash supermetal," but that's not quite hitting it on the head with full blunt. What can be said is that their latest album "Earth" is a challenging culture clash of metal and prog theories hoisted from as far back as the 196...

Beyond the Martyr

While you try to think deeply into the title of ARGUS' third album, "Beyond the Martyr", let's simplify things a little. The Pittsburgh trad metallers used the title in remembrance of their close friend and author, Bruce Nelson. "Beyond the Martyr" is from one of his works. From that point forward,...

The Innocent, the Forsaken, the Guilty

Tommy Mezmercardo, these days known as "Trouble Tommy", has a little psych metal band from yesteryear that he maintains is in hiatus even though there's been no proper new release since the mid-Eighties.

Destiny of the Gods

The Detroit-based metal troupe COVEN from the mid-Eighties is not to be confused with the more notable Seattle thrashers of the same name arriving shortly after these guys. Having originally hung up their leathers in the early nineties after releasing one album, "Worship New Gods", the renamed COVEN...
