Born Into The Twisting Rope
It's always good to see people spending their time wisely. INDUSTRIAL PUKE have plainly spent most of their lives listening to ENTOMBED's "Left Hand Path" and DISCHARGE's "Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing" at excruciating volume, and quite conceivably at the same time. That's not to say that t...May 9, 2023

Step Into The Light / Failure Will Follow
A cunning idea, this. Inspired by the notion of alternate timelines, THE ACACIA STRAIN have made two distinct new albums. On the first, they pose the question: what would this band sound like if it went all-out for brutality and speed? On the second, they imagine a world where THE ACACIA STRAIN esch...May 9, 2023

War Remains
Thrash metal never gets old. No debate necessary. But a bit of generational rejuvenation never goes amiss, and the last decade has seen yet another wave of young bands breathing fire and fury into that cherished and reliably potent formula. Second only to the mighty POWER TRIP in the sensible person...April 27, 2023

Doomsday & Salvation
I can't speak for anybody else, but one of the things I love the most is to listen to a bunch of old Swedes playing old-school death metal. It would seem that plenty of folk are in agreement, too, such is the enduring appeal and influence of the sound that emerged from Stockholm and Gothenburg in th...April 6, 2023

Showdown
There are certain sections of the metal media that are so desperate for a nu-metal revival that any band with a faint affiliation to the genre is immediately grabbed and offered as evidence that, yes, it's really happening this time. It probably isn't, of course, and RISE OF THE NORTHSTAR deserve be...April 5, 2023

Skeletons
POP EVIL faced an uphill battle from the get-go. While most rock acts in the mid-2000s were coming out of major rock markets, POP EVIL hailed from the small town of Muskegon, Michigan, an unlikely spot for a blockbuster rock band. But, armed with catchy, well-written tunes and a lot of rock star att...March 13, 2023

What Makes You Tick?
Nail down the furniture. GOING OFF will make you want to jump off it, throw it around and possibly even set it on fire. So nailing it down won't help. Sorry about that. This is a raging bastard of a hardcore record. With a sound so sweaty, caustic and snotty that it often sounds like the band are ac...February 22, 2023

The Anticurrent
Darker strands of metal are of course commonly associated with a variety of subjects like gore, Satanism and the occult, but styles like death metal and black metal do reach beyond. The international act OMEGA INFINITY is one such band. Their 2020 debut album, "Solar Spectre", touched upon the grand...February 21, 2023

On The Prowl
STEEL PANTHER may be known as a spoof glam band, but that title doesn't do them justice. The group got their start on the Sunset Strip back in the early 2000s and painstakingly built a name for themselves playing regular shows at the Viper Room and Key Club and working their own originals into sets...February 20, 2023

AVATAR say they're on a mission to save heavy metal, and that's apparent on the band's ninth studio effort, "Dance Devil Dance".
