Reviews
Surely in the past I have come across bands that were difficult to be categorized to a specific genre therefore difficult to be reviewed. This happens mostly when there’s no distinctive sound in a band’s work so you start wondering if is that genre or the other. Is this doom metal or just something flirting with doom metal? Where should it be categorized? Questions like these are a real pain in the ass! Some might say that it’s all about music and he’d be probably right.
\r\nVoices of Destiny is a new Symphonic/Gothic Metal band, which recently signed with Massacre Records to release its debut cd, “From The Ashes”, starting its own “history” in the music industry.
\r\nTIME FOR MORE DISARMONIA\r\n
\r\n
\r\nItalian modern Deathsters, - Disarmonia Mundi - ,are playing since 1991. This band has released a lot of albums and now they are back with their fourth official full length release via Coroner Records. \r\n
\r\nLET THE BATTLE BEGIN\r\n
\r\n
\r\nU.S. Deathsters, - A Hill To Die Upon -, are ready to destroy with their first full length album, now released by Bombworks Records. The band was formed in 2004 and since now they have release only one Demo. They are finally ready with their debut album that is going to be loved by many Death Metal fans out there.\r\n
Looks like the Italian scene has a plan to expand its musical horizons beyond the borders of epic metal or, more recently, gothic metal. “Transmutate” is the first release of As Memory Dies and is more or less an interesting proposal in the melodic death metal genre. Even though they are serving the genre since 2005 they managed to release their self-financed debut album just recently. The compositions on “Transmutate” are pretty inspired and very well worked.
Some things, as an old friend of mine likes to point out, are just for the sake of being, with no apparent reason. Well his words sound true and this DVD of “the hottest band in the world!” is here to prove him right. I really can’t understand the reason behind this release (except from the obvious, that of cash!). I mean what’s the reason of watching KISS in their performance at Budokan in front of the Japanese audience in 1988, 20 years later (it was originally released in 2008)?
\r\nGREEK DEATHCORE IN YOUR FACE \r\n
\r\n
\r\nGreek band - The Fallen within - are playing a mix of Death/Hardcore with many experimental elements and melodic parts, since 2004. The band has released so far two Demos and now they are back with a label contract and their very first full length album. \r\n
