Reviews
\r\nENBOUND were formed on 2008; three years later they release their debut album, which they began recording last year.
\r\n“And She Says Gold” is a strong debut album and one of the most interesting latest debut albums. Overall, it contains nice arrangements and combined perfectly with the beautiful, warm and melodic vocals of their singer.
Ageless Oblivion is a new band as they formed in 2009 under the name "Arkane". After
\r\nthat, they changed the name to Ageless Oblivion, releasing now their debut album
\r\n"Temples of Transcendent Evolution" through Siege of Amida Records. The guys are
\r\nfrom United Kingdom and they play a mix of a technical and progressive death metal.

\r\nI agree that the scene nowdays needs different opinions so it can be kept alive and
\r\nprogress itself through new bands. I think that in the case of Ageless Oblivion we
\r\nHow the hell could I have missed these guys all this time? A very strange case of band if you ask me..and how the hell do you come to call your album "Germany’s Next Death Metal"? And what does it mean? I’m confused!

\r\nGerman melodic deathsters Suidakra return after a very successfull album(Crσgacht, 2009) and with this being their tenth official release in 14 years they prove to be a rather active band. For those of you who are not acquainted with the talented act I’ll just mention they’re devoted lovers of the folk/melodic death metal genre like no other. The rest is up to you to discover through their discography.

\r\nTHE NEW ALBUM IS HERE \r\n
\r\n
\r\n-Dr.Acula- is an American band from Long Island, New York that was formed in 2005 and since then they have released two full length albums, two EP’s and one compilation. The band plays a mix of Death/Grindcore and Hardcore and this time they are back with a new album full of new ideas and nice songs. \r\n
\r\nMyland started as a project of drummer Paolo Morbini, after his decision to gather some of his influences and record them. Their debut cd under the name "THE TIME IS OVER" was self published in 2004. Even though this was a project idea and all the members have been busy with other bands, Paolo was already working on some new original material for a second MyLand album which was out in 2008 and was called "NO MAN’S LAND".
\r\nHaving the fans of Dream Theater, Evanescence and Lacuna Coil as your target group is something bizarre, yet not unreachable.
\r\nClandestine is something different coming from the so called “modern” scene of metal. “The Invalid”, their first full length album is the successor of the EP that they released back on 2006; they are trying to develop their own very personal style via their music; whether they make it or not, is something for each one of you to decide by listening to them actually.
Some of us (including me) think that Finland is a country that is a leading force when it comes to Gothic Metal bands and that is definitely more than just a reputation. But it seems that Bloodride are here to cry out that Finnish bands can Thrash as well the old school way, and by the term old school I mean exactly that. Influenced by mostly American bands like Testament and Slayer along with a great dose of Destruction’s nerve and raw power, Bloodride unleash hell with their first full length release “Crowned In Hell” delivering an album suitable for endless head banging!
The Project Hate MCMXCIX are back with their eighth release "Bleeding The New
\r\nApocalypse" through Season of Mist records. This band is a collective of musicians
\r\nlike Lord K (of Dark Funeral), Jorgen Sandstrom (of Grave, Krux) and this time on
\r\ndrums is Tobias Gustafsson (of Vomitory) and about vocals, another new addition took
\r\nplace this time in the face of Portuguese Ruby Roque (Witchbreed). Now that the
\r\nintroduction finished, let’s talk about the most important thing...Music!!

\r\nWhen I begun writing this review I realized how hard is to find info about MINDFLOW on the net and that really saddens me; even their page on wikipedia hasn’t been updated for a long time so if you check in you ‘ll find “Destructive Device” (2008) to be referred as their latest album release. So, it makes me wonder why such a band remains in the underground while there’s a brainwashing of updates and promotion in general for other bands, not necessarily published by them or their environment (ie record labels, promoters etc).
