We have done some coverage in the past of Inferion and their zero tolerance for theatrics and musical tricks when it comes to the art of black metal. With the release of their new album “The Desolate” I did a little digging around and found what I feel could be the reason this new...
Goatwhore has been on the minds of our readers and writers since Vince and Heavy Metal Momma watched them destroy Halifax a couple of years back. At the time they were in support of their album “Carving Out the Eyes of God” and quite frankly the album scared the hell out of me, but...
We’ve all been told as some point, haven’t we, not to judge a book by its cover? As common as that advice is and as clichéd as it has become, it’s still easy to forget. and I’m sorry to say I forgot that pearl of wisdom when I sat down to review Apocrpha, a...
We work with lots of Record Companies or Distribution Companies so it’s very unusual for me to mention one specifically, but after looking over the material that Hellthrasher (www.hellthrasher.com)sent over it was much easier to talk about the massive library of violent death metal they have built then review each album individually.

Right from the very beginning the death metal band Nephelium fascinated me because of their heritage. They are the first death metal band hailing from Dubai. Dubai to me is the Las Vegas of the Emirates with some of the riches people in the world dealing primarily in oil, but also massing major fortunes...
Let’s play a word association game. The topic will be “French” and we’ll try to come up with as many terms to tie in with the French as possible. Let’s see, there’s the Eiffel Tower, the city of love, that museum from The da Vinci Code, baguettes, croissants, a revolution resulting in a lot...
I’m just a good ole’ country boy from rural Nova Scotia, Canada that happens to be a big metal head. So big in fact I helped in founding this very site. Based on the fact that I have a fairly normal life complete with family and two cars people find it quite strange that...
Review: KARNÆ – Evil Is A Necessity
What are Good and Evil? Are they just concepts, ways for us to express things of benefit to society or things which society should be against? Do they represent polar opposites of the Divine?
