Evilution Hour

It is always nice to hear a true blue classic metal album, even if said album is just decent, not stellar. Such is the case with "Evilution Hour" from Norway's PAGANIZE, which features, of all people, drummer Trym (ZYKON, EMPEROR). The disc is comprised of 10 solid, if unremarkable, tracks character...

Killing Peace

You know, it won't win you any friends among the back-patch-and-MALICE-button set, but it's okay once in a while to admit that some of those quasi-legendary '80s bands were… well… second-tier. Not that it should affect one's enjoyment of their classic albums — hell, I'm a huge XENTRIX fan despite my...

Thrash Anthems

Stopgap releases are a fact of life in metal. The gaping maw of the industry is a demanding bitch-goddess of a master, and if you're signed, and you're not METALLICA, you better have something to throw into it on a timely schedule, or else. Why else did you think otherwise intelligent and quality mi...

Queen of Siam

I'll be happy as a German drowning in a vat of beer if HOLY MOSES albums keep getting reissued at a decent pace, till everything from this quite enjoyable second-tier thrash act is back in print and available on the shelves. However, it's gotta be said, in the interest of total honesty, that debut L...
