Reviews
The German outfit Doomshine with their debut LP “Thy Kingdoom Come” left many of us wandering what the hell had hit us and a great amount of Doomshine fans to wonder oufselfs for about six years, when the new album is going to be out, just to feel once again their unique sound and lyricism. So, these are the good news, the new album by Doomshine entitled “The Piper at the Gate of Doom” is at last out on Massacre Records.
A GREAT RELEASE \r\n
\r\n-Cephalic Carnage- are back with another stunning album!! The band is now ready to release their new album , -Misled by Certainty- and their fans are going to love it.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThey are playing the same style only now they have more Technical ideas, many interesting riffs and amazing production. Great guitars, nice bass, excellent drumming and great Death Metal vocals. The production is very good and so is the cover of the album.\r\n
\r\nU.S. METALCORE\r\n
\r\n
\r\n-Hero Destroyed- returned but this time with their first full length album. After releasing their first EP in 2008 now they are ready with their debut album.\r\n
\r\n
\r\nThe new album is called - Throes - and its in the same style like their previous album. U.S. Metalcore with nice production, nice riffs, very good bass, amazing drumming and a very good voice. The production is very good and so is the cover of the album.\r\n
\r\nNEW BLOOD \r\n
\r\n
\r\n-Blood Revolt- is the new band from Canada that was formed by A. Nemtheanga(Primordial), J. Read (Revenge/Conqueror) and C.Ross(Axis of Advance). They call their music Extreme Metal and they are ready to spread their music ideas through their debut album. \r\n
\r\nThis is album is already one of my top favs, even though I recently got it in my hands. “Bar-do Travel” is a very impressive piece of work for the fans of Progressive metal scene mainly, as it may be too complicated for all the rest. It combines dark atmospheres, ambient, psychedelic and post rock sounds, a perfect harmony between Tool and Meshuggah influences, rhythmical variations and mood changes, from a tech math point of view, and new age colors, which, all together, they create stunning soundscapes.
\r\nProbably, most metal fans are sick and tired of the label “symphonic metal” when it comes a newly formed band with female vocals. However, taking for granted that this scene keeps expanding anyway, it’s all a matter of personal taste in music, regardless of the music genre; each band, should be considered as a unique presence in the world of metal, instead of being a part of the mass.
From the neighbouring Italy hail Arthemis and thogh they are serving the scene since 1994, having released 5 albums so far, I’ve never heard of them. “Heroes” is their 6th album so far ( they have already released “Church Of Holy Ghost”-1999, “The Damned Ship”-2001, “Golden Dawn”-2003, “Back From The Heart”-2005 and “Black Society”-2008). Music wise Arthemis are into heavy/power metal given through a more modern sound.
\r\nThis is one more release coming from Poland; it seems that the local scene is alive and it gets bigger and wider all the time.
\r\nAN AMAZING DEBUT\r\n
\r\n
\r\n-Allegaeon- is a band from Colorado-USA, that plays a mix of Melodic and Technical Death Metal. The band has already released one EP in 2008 and now they are ready with their first full length.\r\n
