\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\nDEATHCORE FROM PORTLAND \r\n
\r\n
\r\n-Those Who Lie Beneath- is a new band from Portland, U.S., playing Deathcore with an extreme Brutal and angry way. The band is ready to release their first album through Metal Blade Records and the news for every Deathcore fan are great.\r\n
If anyone remembers or just checks out the review I made for the Retro Grave E.P. two years ago, he will understand that I’ve been looking forward to this debut album of Retro Grave for about two years now.
Winter’s Verge seem to be pretty lucky during the last months. At the end of 2009 they signed with Massacre Records, a few days later they joined STRATOVARIUS on POLARIS European tour and just after the end of it, “TALES OF TRAGEDY” saw the light of day.
