Album Reviews

The eight tracks offer atmospheric and epic qualities without sacrificing any of their trademark blackened aggression. Out on Nuclear Blast.

After 14 long years The Hellacopters have finally released their new long player called ‘Eyes Of Oblivion’. It was worth the wait – a fantastic hard rock album comes your way!

‘Oh What The Future Holds’ brings a more sophisticated side of the deathcore genre. Never I had the thought that it was boring or bad. Every song has it’s unique stamp of pure greatness.

Sabaton is back singing about “The War To End All Wars”, telling stories that took place during WW1, going all the way from the beginning to the very end.

The hardcore veterans of Comeback Kid are back with another absolutely banger of an album! ‘Heavy Steps’ comes in and kills!

Finnish heavy metal band Battle Beast just released their new album »Circus of Doom«, on which they perfected their usual sound while still adding a lot of new flavours into the mix. Definitely recommended.

With “Worship” Hypocrisy managed to craft one of it’s best albums that combines the classic trademarks of these Swedish pioneers.

Light The Torch is back with their 2nd album under the new moniker and continues down the path of epic and extremely catchy tunes that will stick in your head forever!

Massacre’s fourth album “Resurgence” presents a real treat for the fans who had been waiting for the band to revive its classic raw sound.

On “Existence Is Futile”, Cradle Of Filth plunges into the dark horror themes of hell, the songs shimmer with innovative composition and are ultimately driven by the morbid principles of the Filths.
