It was 23th April, during one wet but hot day, when we’ve just escaped the spring-rain and enter the venue where Primordial and Moonsorrow should make their performance that particular evening. The first person that I met in venue was Alan Averill, charismatic leader of Promordial. There, in the rooms of venue we had one…
Just a few days ago I was able to visit Budapest to witness Rhapsody’s farewell tour. The show was sold out and the venue full of crowd. In fact, I was hoping that Luca Turilli will somehow continue with the band, in one way or another, to play some Rhapsody songs, but it seems that…
Well, I have to admit that I am following Moonsorrow since their birth, actually since they’ve released their debut album. As the years passed by I found that I more and more liked their style, since it has become rawer, with more black metal influences. When Verisakeet (2005) was released I was pleasantly surprised and…

I have to say that I was not a aware of Judicator as a band until they have released their latest effort. Their brand new offering The Last Emperor is actually their 3rd full-length and I can truly say that we are dealing here with yet another successful band that arrives from US shores. For…
Lik is Swedish death metal band that celebrates the glory days of their homeland through unashamed worship of HM2 infused DM filth and they have just unleashed their second gull length entitled Carnage on the unsuspecting world. Their drummer Chris Barkensjö is here to tell us all about it… Greetings Lik and welcome to the…
Lik (Swedish word for ‘’corpse’’) is the latest signing in Metal Blade’s rich history of bringing the finest of death metal unto the masses and when you just take a glance at album title and cover you will know what to expect right away… That is right, no fancy gimmick or progressive tendencies to be…
Only a year after they had released their re-issue of 2015 album Sword and Sorcery, Numenor is already releasing their 3rd full-lenght album Chronicles from the Realms Beyond through Stormspell Records and their success is still, constantly going upwards since the last album was released. Our first contact with the album has happened with the…
