Concrete Age – Motherland (Soundage Productions)

Ethnic-Thrash outfit Concrete Age hail from the Stavropol Krai region of the North Caucasus, an area rich in culture, tradition and history. This strip of land situated between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea has played host to empires… Continue Reading →

Vulture – Sentinels (Metal Blade)

In recent years there has been a big glut of worship bands, mostly I would say in the realms of Death Metal and Heavy Metal. A number of years prior there was also that big Thrash boom with bands like… Continue Reading →

Exhorder – Defectum Omnium (Nuclear Blast)

It’s only been 5 years since their last offering, so nearly 6 times shorter than the last wait we had to endure. But sadly this time Vinnie LaBella isn’t returning, so it’s just Kyle Thomas from the original line up… Continue Reading →

Suicidal Angels – Profane Prayer (Nuclear Blast)

Greece, a land with a rich history of culture is rightfully seen as a place fruitful in the creation of many fine metal and alternative bands, and thrash metal is no stranger at that. Despite being more acquainted with the… Continue Reading →

Midnight – Hellish Expectations (Metal Blade)

I wrote a review a week or so ago which took me back to listening to Speed Kills as a teen. Well here I am again back in the audio time machine thanks to the one-man maniac project that is… Continue Reading →

Morta Skuld – Creation Undone (Peaceville)

I guess you get it with every genre of music but I always find it strange how odd albums from seemingly underground bands go on to become so highly regarded. Dying Remains by Morta Skuld is such a case. You… Continue Reading →

Innerload – Mater Tenebrarum (Great Dane Records)

If you are going to name your album after one of the Three Mothers then it had damn well best be a work summoning up a sense of malevolent witchery. Based upon the writings of Thomas De Quincey and adapted… Continue Reading →

Morbid Saint – Swallowed By Hell (High Roller Records)

A quick bit of research can help put to rest the alleged claims that Morbid Saint toured with Death, which ironically is what they have garnered a degree of their cult following from. In actuality the band only played a… Continue Reading →

Apparition – Fear The Apparition (F.D.A. Records)

This debut album by Spain’s Apparition has already had a release on Headsplit records in July of 2023 on cassette and CD, as I suspect the German label has picked it up for a further CD issue and of course… Continue Reading →

Master – Saints Dispelled (Hammerheart Records)

Little breaks can be a good thing, for example I am now back from a year long hiatus from reviewing. Rather interestingly this first review I have chosen is from Master who themselves have had a bit of a break… Continue Reading →
