Album Reviews
Iron Savior takes us on an adventurous journey to the past with their new album containing re-recorded songs from their first albums.
GWAR’s first release with The Berserker Blothar holding the reigns after losing their long-time ringleader Oderus Urungus!
The offspring of Apollo delivered a hell of an album, he would be proud with such a result. Portnoy, Sherinian, Sheehan, Scoto and Bumblefoot made an instant classic !!
Japanese Crossfaith is back to get you dancing and banging your head at the same time together with some nice guest appearances! I can say only one thing: we want more!
Possibly the birth of the next big thing in “vintage rock” is to be found in Finland, check out their groovy, heavy rock now!
Drop everything you’re holding, stop everything you’re doing. You’ll need your hands and ears free to pick up this heavy metal!
The Mob is back and they are here to stay. Groovy songs and sticky tunes that will make your booty move.
