Theatrical, gothic but most definitely black metal. Le Chant Noir could have been written as an alternative soundtrack to Interview With A Vampire; maybe a biopic of the life and times of Dracula or else piped through the halls of… Continue Reading →
Politically charged Brazilian bump and grind time. Desalmado, which I have just discovered means heartless or cruel have been compared to the likes of Nasum and Brutal Truth and that may well be how they sounded over their earlier albums… Continue Reading →
