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.
RIOTS „The Dark Prophecy (EP)”
Riots, since 1999 here on earth, born through Stephan Brune, enlarged by Florian von Bargen in the year 2002 and to be fullfilled by Olaf Kissing on drums and Sebastian Funke on guitars, this German mixture of sleaze, gothic and heavy elements is on the best way to have success. In the Ruhrgebiet/Germany well-known, Riots rocked right to the first places of the worldwide biggest newcomer festival called Emergenza.
DESTRUCTOR „Sonic Bullet”
After 18 years of silence, Destructor has resurfaced from the depths of the Ohio metal underground to once again kick your ass into submission. Sonic Bullet is first collection of new material since 1985s Maximum Destruction which to date is the bands only full-length album.
VILGEFORTZ „Killing one by one”
I’m sorry guys, but this really isn’t my cup of tea. I suppose this is an admirable attempt, but the songs lack a decent production and the guitars sound very weak.
SVARTSYN „Tormentor”
This swe Black.M band has really developed since theirs first album. I enjoy this EP,
.
ROADKILL „Pyramid”
This cd was sent to me by a friend for review. Not knowing much about the band all I have to go on is the music and its presentation.
HANDFUL OF HATE „Death From Above”
I have to start with the lay'out as really are something. It's very well done! This EP contains 2 tracks:
.
AENIMA „Never Fragile”
Personally is hard to pigeonhole this music. The gothic is the surely main standard, but are hear the influences of metal and rock , or the dark wave here.
