Festival Reports

Steelchaos is back at full force and we were there! With Satan’s Fall, Malicious, Flame, Barathrum, Belphegor and Sacramentum it was a great first day of this year’s edition!

First day of Steelfest brought one after the other high quality black and death metal band!

Our report of a magical journey to a weird and warm land, an unspeakable language, but most of all: an awesome festival!

Winter Days of Metal: The ultimate metal winter holidays! Grim and frostbitten, just how we like it!

Album Reviews

Austria’s blackened death metal act Belphegor conjures us a demonic soundtrack to Walpurgis on its newest album ‘The Devils’ which is the band’s strongest release to date. The eight tracks offer atmospheric and epic qualities without sacrificing any of their trademark blackened aggression. Out on Nuclear Blast.

Hate delivers yet another crushing blackened death metal album!

We reviewed Belphegor’s latest album, Totenritual for you, check it out here!
