ZARAZA „No Paradise To Lose”
If music beyond the Halloween season tantalizes your listening taste buds then this CD is it. This group describes themselves as experimental/industrial funeral doom metal one must argue that Zaraza's self produced effort absolutely doesn't touch ground with any descriptions but a fruity-loops recording gone bad.

BLINED BY FAITH „Veiled Hideousness”
Veiled Hideousness is a re-release of the groups debut demo with a couple live bonus tracks taken from Under an Occult Sun. BBFs initial full-length Under an Occult Sun is slightly more technical than Veiled and the keyboards take on more of a fantasy feel compared to the gothic layering of Veiled.

UNEXPECT „In a flesh aquarium”
The music of Canadian UNEXPECT is a great challenge, both for the musicians, as and for listeners because it is the art on very high-level, it is hundred-percent artistry designed only for true connoisseurs and men with open minds.

VERBAL DECEPTION „Aurum Aetus Piraticus”
It looks like the Canadians are fascinated of pirates because the not only whole binding of disc is consecrated for pirates' subject matter (e.g. the cover-art, the small map like from films about pirates) but and the lyrical layer, as and the name of kind music is definite as Pirate Metal
so what is the Pirate Metal contained in 11 compositions?

THREAT SIGNAL „Under Reprisal”
Huh? Whats that I hear in the distance? A familiar sound; comes around on its yearly orbit professing to destroy all in its path yep thats it straight out of Donzdorf Germany, a massive hulking beast they call the Hype Machine. All props to the guys at Nuclear Blast, they do enormous work in the name of metal and I love them dearly.

INNER SURGE „Signals Screaming”
The first band so far made me eager to see them live. I really wish I would be able to see them perform.
CAVEAT „Caveat”
The Canadians from CAVEAT created explosive cocktail! After shuffle so many ingredients ( the kinds of metal) came into being the progressive/experimental metal – they qualified it themselves This is the second material of “musical bartenders”, although I only tasted this drink with reserved name “Caveat”. Already during my first tasting I felt several ingredients of this extremely energetic drink.
