Iron Savior – Firestar (AFM)

It seems like just last year that there was an Iron Savior album released…and it was, but that was re-recorded versions of some of their older tracks whereas this is a shiny new offering, the first since “Skycrest” in 2020…which… Continue Reading →

Primal Fear – Code Red (Atomic Fire)

Even though for many people, the defining feature that makes a Primal Fear song so instantly recognisable as Primal Fear would probably be the unmistakeable voice of Ralf Scheepers, such is the command an iconic vocalist can wield. Another identifying… Continue Reading →

The Silent Rage – Nuances Of Life (Scarlet Records)

Greek Heavy/Power Metal band The Silent Rage are back after a lengthy break of seven years, with the weighty follow-up to their impressive debut “The Deadliest Scourge” and as you might expect with such a gap between albums, there have… Continue Reading →

Manimal – Armageddon (AFM)

Swedish Metal band Manimal seem to have developed a bit of a problem. No, it’s not their strange and slightly questionable name, it’s more of a dilemma – a good one, but one that might be holding them back from… Continue Reading →

Adamantis – Far Flung Realm (Cruz Del Sur)

After a self-released EP in 2018, Cruz Del Sur have now waded in and unleashed American Power Metal band Adamantis’ first full length album “Far Flung Realm”. It’s an album with its feet firmly fixed in the finest Power Metal… Continue Reading →

For 22 years Primal Fear have been one of the driving forces in Euro Power Metal, standing alongside fellow countrymen Rage, Accept, Helloween, Blind Guardian etc… Basically, they’re one of a long list of bands who know how to blend… Continue Reading →

Hellbound – Overlords (Discouraged Records)

Do you like the works of Rob Zombie? Hellbound do, like Airbourne like Akka Dakka if you catch my drift. The album starts with a snippet of Hellbound- Hellraiser II and then Too Fast to Die begins. It is basically… Continue Reading →

Mystic Prophecy – Metal Division (Rock Of Angels Records)

It’s taken a year or so, but up and coming Greek Metal label Rock Of Angels finally get to wheel out their big guns with a new album by German Metal powerhouse Mystic Prophecy. Having already shone in Steel Prophet… Continue Reading →

Manimal – Purgatorio (AFM)

Impressive Swedish Heavy/Power Metal band Manimal may have a bit of a silly name, but there’s nothing particularly comical about the delivery of their particular blend of high energy, no-nonsense Metal. Not for them the symphonic noodlings of Sonata Arctica… Continue Reading →

Estate – Mirrorland (Mighty Music)

Russian Symphonic Melodic Metal band Estate have had a bit of a re-assess in the past 4 years. “Fantasia” was a more than credible Symphonic/Melodic/Power Metal debut, relying as it did on good tunes and memorable melodies, but possibly lacking… Continue Reading →

Voodoo Circle – Raised On Rock (AFM)

If you have a penchant for Melodic Metal’s heady late 80’s period of wealth there are still plenty of routes open to you if you want to reconnect with those halcyon days. Many of the bands have reformed, some of… Continue Reading →
