MADE OF IRON „s/t”
Made Of Iron is a new heavy metal band from Germany. They were founded in December 1999 from two Greek guys who live in Germany and until 2001 they used to be an Iron Maiden cover-band, something that is more than obvious in their music.
LACRIMAS PROFUNDERE „Ave End”
Lacrimas Profundere is one of my favorite bands and even many people blame them of copying Anathema I still believe that their sound is very original and if you have listened to only one of their songs it will be easy to recognize the style of the band. Their previous release Fall, I Will Follow was a very good one and as I had written in its review it was the only album they could release after Burning: A Wish.
FORGOTTEN TALES „All The Sinners”
Forgotten Tales is a new symphonic power metal band from Canada and this is their second album. They had released The Promise back in 2001 and now it was time for All The Sinners.

CAFFERY, CHRIS „Faces”
Savatage is a well known band not only because of releases like Gutter Ballet, Hall Of The Mountain King, Edge Of Thorns etc but also because of the many projects that have been born by its members. Most of you already know Trans Siberian Orchestra, Dr.
BEHEMOTH „Demigod”
So, this is Behemoths fourth full length release in the last five years (theyve also released the EP Conjuration). This fact is not always encouraging for a band nowadays, as most bands release second-class albums in very short time, due to their label contracts, or just to make money.
BALATONIZER „Occlused In Ottusity”
Occlused In Ottusity contains 32 songs with a total duration of 25 minutes. Furthermore, Balatonizers longest track here is only 1 minute and 29 seconds I guess you have already understood that the band is into grindcore with really brutal vocals.
1349 „Beyond The Apocalypse”
This is the norwegians second full length after the debut Liberation which had received a great feedback a couple of years ago, especially due to the participation of Frost (Satyricon) behind the drumkit. Now they return with their new effort Beyond The Apocalypse released through Candlelight.
OF INFINITY „The Essence Of Infinity”
I really dont like seeing a metal band becoming popular and then hundreds of bands following the style of that band in order become famous. But when some of them are good I have to admit it.
NICODEMUS „Vanity Is A Virtue”
Nicodemus is a very unique band. They were formed in late 1998 and released 2 albums in melodic black metal and now we have their brand new release here.
ECITON „Oppressed”
Eciton is a new death metal band from Denmark but its member are very experienced as they have been involved in numerous death metal bands and projects in the past. Oppressed is their debut album and it has been released by Adipocere records.
