\r\nΘυμάμαι πως πριν απÏŒ μερικά χρÏŒνια (τÏŒτε που οι Doom / Death Metal ανησυχίες\r\nμου ήταν πολλÎς) είχα αγοράσει το ντεμποÏτο album των My Shameful το\r\nοπ&
\r\nCandlelight records released the debut album of The Foreshadowing, a band coming from Italy. I have to admit that I spent 5 minutes peering at the albums cover. It had an excelent inspiration, beautiful colours and it passes through many messages about what you are about to listen. Somewhere between gothic and doom sounds, listening to the album you are to experience emotions like melancholy, sorrow, loneliness. Having crystal clear production, every song is played at slow tempo with all the instruments absolutely bonded to each other.
\r\nΟ Dan Swano είναι απÏŒ τα άτομα που σÎβομαι και εκτιμÏŽ ιδιαίτερα μιας που\r\nη προσφορά του στον ακραίο ήχο είναι κάτι παραπάνω απÏŒ

\r\nWhen i took this promo in my hands i was sure that the result will be good because of the line-up of the band which is constituted by very good musicians with active presence in the Greek scene: Giorgos Matikas (guitars, ex-W.A.N.T.E.D), Kostas Tsagkaris (ex-SICK DAZE), Antonis Kanaras (ex-LAST ROUND), TAZ (bass) and Bebis (voice, PANX POUTANA, BULLDOZA).
\r\nTim Aymar in my opinion is one of the most interesting voices that appeared in the scene during the last years. He became widely known when he did the vocals for Control Denied, and even though a collaboration between Chuck and Warrel will remain as an unfulfilled desire, I think that Aymar did a really great job.
\r\nBasically raw Thrash Power metal , however this is not enough to describe this album, as there are far too many elements mixed together. Original elements from the "pure" heavy metal scene, Thrash background, power passages, brutal and aggressive vocals, melodic vocals, and a few high-pitched notes here and there, all in the right proportion, and here it is, the new album of IMAGIKA. Continuous changes in order to avoid getting boring, given, though, in a way so not to sound too extreme.
\r\nUnfortunately this is not the new album from Danish Panzerchrist but is a collection which contains the first album of the band, Six Seconds Kill (1-8), the second Outpost Fort Europe (9-18) and some unreleased tracks (19-21). We must mention that recently the singer of the band, Bo Summer (which is known from Illdisposed and was member of Panzerchrist from the beginning), left the band while the same happened with the drummer Reno Killerich.
\r\nKiss Of The Thorn is the name of the debut of album of A Tortured Soul from America, who have absolutely nothing new to introduce to us, however what they do they do it with love and effort and the result is very interesting. The music that we listen here is a mixture of Judas Priest with Mercyful Fate/King Diamond and Black Sabbath.
\r\nLance King is good, very good. Yet, Matt Barlow is something different, no doubt. I was never really excited about Pyramaze, neither was I ever a big fan of Barlow. Nevertheless, I think that this collaboration has a lot to say.
