\r\n"Time to Be Free" is the solo project of former Angra/Shaman singer Andre Matos who at some point decided that it was time to venture into his musical solitariness seeking at last his own wishful creative freedom.
Space Eater is from Serbia and the “Merciful Angel” is their first release. Their music style is something between Speed/ Power/ Thrash forms and in general is a technical band. Nice melodic interludes and technical solos. This is about a band that loves the American thrash school and especially Testament, which is one of Space Eater influences. The only “weak” point in my opinion is that the vocals, which are very good, seems to luck of anger and so do not fit with the whole aggressive style.
\r\nAncara is a Finnish band featuring Melodic heavy rock. ‘Beyond the dark’ is their second effort, released via High and Loud, the record label owned by STRATOVARIUS singer Timo Kotipelto and the entire album stinks with classic commercial 80s style hard rock mostly mid-paced, stuffed with big choruses, 80s driving rock riffs, sizzling guitar solos, clean, melodic vocals and a diffuse catchy sound.
Hellish Crossfire is a German Band. What Germans Do Best? That’s right! They play pure old school Thrash metal. Hellish Crossfire is not an exception. The “Slaves Of The Burning Pentagram” is a very nice mixture of old good Kreator, Destruction with a little more Heavy thrash influences like Bewitched (SWE) . During the 38 minutes that the CD lasts the guys give us many reasons for head banging, stage diving and why not crowd surfing!
\r\nThis is the new solo album from Mr. Steve Cone who comes from\r\nArizona US and over the last few years, it seems that he has took very\r\nseriously what he is doing, presenting some albums which are at least\r\ngood. In My Bones is the new full length album, and in the past he has\r\nreleased some albums which were not very succesfull in the genre of\r\nHeavy Metal.
Two Years after the “A Sign Of Things To Come” Full Length, the British Centurions Ghost returned, so creative as never before. It’s to hard for me to describe their type of music. Centurions Ghost is a doom metal band with many and various elements. Perfect production and loud, heavy riffing is their strongest point. The Vocals are Brutal but also melodic in the same time. Three line up changes took place through these two years, a fact that made “The Great Work” to sound fresh, well written and full of new ideas.

\r\nAlthough I have been following Arch Enemy from the early beginning of their career I must say that after Johan Liiva‘s departure and his replacement by Angela Gossow I kind of started to keep a small distance considering my previous attachment to them.
