Reviews
\r\nIt’s a fact that in order to promote a cd, sometimes there are some exaggerations or inaccurate descriptions. But we should not overstep the boundaries. The cd is supposed to appeal to Crimson Glory, Queensryche, Iced Earth, Iron Maiden fans and the singer is supposed to be influenced by Midnight, Tate, Lance King, Dio, Bruce Dickinson. No way, guys. The music style of the album is epic/heavy power and the vocals remind of another place and time, somewhere in the middle 80’s till the early 90’s.

\r\nOSLO SCREAMS \r\n \r\n
\r\n-She Said Destroy - from Norway , were formed back in 2000 and after some Demos and a debute album in 2006, they managed to release their second full length work.The album is called - This City Speaks in Tongues - and i am very sure that its going to be noticed by many metalheads out there. \r\n
\r\nMystic Prophecy is a German based power metal band, featuring two Greek musicians (Dimitris Liapakis and Constantine). "Fireangel" is their sixth official release, since "Vengeance" (band’s debut in 2001) and the first with the current line up.
\r\nThe label on the cd, “Gods of Vermin”, is really far away from being accurate. Dark symphonic is only one side of it. Symphonic yes, but based on clear Prog/Power formulas, despite of the dark mood that features the songs, probably due to the dramatic and theatrical elements that cover the album and of course the atmosphere coming from them.
\r\nWe have said it over and over again. Lande belongs to that “kind” of musicians that every time that they announce the release of a new album you surely know what to expect. Well, that may not sound that positive to those who prefer more experimental stuff, on the other hand, though, Lande ‘s presence as a performer, musician, artist, composer has been established and its high value can not be doubted and that’s that.

\r\nTHE TARDY BROTHERS ARE HERE\r\n \r\n
\r\nOk, everyone knows the Tardy Brothers from Obituary.These Death Metal veterans started back in 1984 with the band Executioner(later Xecutioner) that turned into Obituary.Now after almost 25 years and many Obituary releases , they are into a new project. Basically , the Tardy Brothers project is nothing else but the two brothers releasing some more groovy ideas with various interesting guests.\r\n
A mix of new metal, progressive and classic metal (in some parts) is being delivered by the French Sonny Red. “Extent of soul” is their debut album and it consists of 11 tracks in an average production and much “Fuzz” I would say. By the word “fuzz” I mean that there is too much noise for nothing. Their music is a bit tiring since they are playing too many things and finally nothing gets you really interested.
