\r\nPsychotic death metal. This is how My Kingdom Music label describes Inallsenses’ music. This is surely not the case in Hysterical Psychosis, umless you think Helloween is too extreme for you. Let’s see through it all the same..

\r\nI wonder if Blackmore decided at last to leave new-folk/medieval serenades and he work on a genre who we’ve learnt him from Rainbow and Deep Purple namely 70’s Hard Rock, it is to be desired that for somebody who loved these previous bands. But appearances are deceptive! Because this is not about Ritchie Blackmore but Jürgen Blackmore who is son of previous by chance and it seems that he follows guitar’s steps of her father faithfully. As you see it’s typical family’s tradition.
\r\nThe term "cult" often gets misused, not to say it’s deliberately disorienting..In the case of Heretic we are being let to believe things that lack...truth! This release is a collection of songs from several 7 inch’s plus some bonus tracks. So what?

So…what should I review now? When the ultimate Metal Goddess is releasing something new words are not enough! What we have here is not a new album but the single “Breaking The Law” recorded to promote DORO’s new Anniversary DVD with the self described title “25 Years In Rock…and still going strong” with which she celebrates 25 years serving the heavy metal scene with power and pride. The way very few artists have managed. This single includes 2 songs.
\r\nΤhere is nothing more satisfactory than the surprise caused by a new coming band(even though this is their second release) and its destructive force. This "hey, I discovered them!" feeling and the following pride are enough to make you boast you like a rooster among chickens. But the music itself is braindevouring food!

\r\nIs there anyone not into Bolt Thrower? If you have already started reading this you may as well stop now because what lies ahead, an also this album, is none of your business. Yes my dear hairy friends, the beloved swedes have the balls and the attitude to play groovy death metal!

“Grave New World” is the third studio release for the Athenians X-piral The band serves the Heavy/Power Metal scene since 2000, almost a decade now and having released two studio albums of well performed Heavy/Power Metal. So the EP’s predecessor are “Poison Eyes”-2005 and “Hunters”-2007. “Grave New World” continues the legacy. Here we have 5 new songs that despite their typical Power Metal form and sound are enriched with some melodic parts especially on the keys (you should listen to the dark intro of “Regression”..)
\r\nBreach The Void comes from Switzerland and “The Monochromatic Era” is their debut album. Their drummer, Alex Anxionna, who was previously in Sybreed, is the founding member of the band and it seems that his “past” activity has influenced Breach The Void a lot.
First full length album from Dream Of Illusion hailing from the neighbouring Italy. A band that with “Decadence” debutes to the Heavy/Power Metal Scene.
