March to Die – Tears of the Gorgon (No Remorse)

This is a new Epic metal band from Cyprus, they quite clearly sound and are inspired by the various stage of pre-90’s Manowar. You get that from the vocal expression and the music from the initial opener ‘The Eternal Oath’… Continue Reading →

Tome Of The Unreplenished – Earthbound (Avantgarde Music)
