Review : GENGHIS TRON – “Cloak Of Love”

Genghis Tron - Cloak Of Love

The daring Poughkeepsie trio’s premier EP is an extreme exercise in experimentation. At under 13 minutes, it barely gives you a chance to keep up, evolving at the speed of concept.

Review : EPICA – “Design Your Universe”

Epica - Design Your Universe

Strings? Check. Choir? Check. Distorted guitars? Check. Operatic female vocals? Check. Welcome to the universe that Holland’s favorite symphonic metallers Epica has designed.

Update : Forum Of DOOM

Hails!

Well, it’s up there (sorta) … now I just gotta figure out how to make it work! You know the drill:  debates, inquiries, peddling, rants, and suggestions.

This is more of an ‘awareness’ thing right now. It will be fully functional soon enough.

So use that shit, if you like/can/dare!

Review: IMMORTAL – “All Shall Fall”

It is very rare that an album comes along with the entire package, even rarer when it is a band’s first output in over 7 years. However, that’s exactly what we’ve got with Immortal’s comeback album: All Shall Fall.

Review: GORGOROTH – “Quantos Possunt ad Satanitatem Trahunt”

Over the last few years, no band has suffered from as much internal strife as Gorgoroth. After the “firing” of vocalist Gaahl and bassist King ov Hell, two parties were essentially formed. One led by the aforementioned musicians, the other led by founder Infernus. Following a long, drawn out battle for who had the rights to the Gorgoroth name, Infernus finally won due to his longer usage. Now, they’re back, and certainly in great form.

Interview : Laurent Schroeder-Lebec, PELICAN

Pelican Promo

Here is the second interview in two days to go longer than planned! This one is with Laurent Schroeder-Lebec, guitarist for Pelican. It was recorded live on my show, “Mind Over Metal” on 90.1 WRUV FM Burlington. They’re sticking with shorter songs on their latest LP, What We All Come To Need, which also features a slew of guest musicians and I argue is their strongest work to date. Hear about their Southern Lord debut, the introduction of vocals for the first time, the evolution of musical aesthetics, and more!

Interview : Rafa Martinez, BLACK COBRA

Black Cobra in the studio with Billy Anderson

The first of two interviews to go twice as long as planned, and both were lots of fun along the way! This one is with Rafa Martinez, the drummer for Black Cobra. The high energy duo have released their Southern Lord debut, Chronomega, and it’s a monster of an album! In our interview, we discuss recording with Billy Anderson, the story behind the artwork, the vinyl resurgence and much more in this half hour!
