(9/10) I think that one of the reasons why a Kissin‘ Dynamite album creates some excitement on my side is the fact that the guys partly remind me of my own youth. Grown up in Swabia and being thrilled by metal is what I get in my mind when listening to Kissin‘ Dynamite‘s music. It... Continue Reading →
(7/10) Stormwitch is a band name most of you should be familiar with. The glorious early longplayers, such as 'Tales of Terror' and 'Walpurgis Night', were underground highlights in the mid 80's.

(4/10) The first Lizzy Borden record that crossed my way was ‘The Murderess Metal Road Show’ release from 1986. It was the mix of metal, horror and rock’n’roll circus that caught the attention of an 18 year old and it was the sophomore studio album ‘Menace to Society’ that intensified the positive impression. Metal lost... Continue Reading →

Their two albums, ‘Fifth Angel’ and ‘Time Will Tell’ are timeless classics, including great songs like ‘Cathedral’, ‘In the Fallout’ and ‘Fifth Angel’.

The beginning of this Spanish metal outfit dates back to 2014, the year when the quartet premiered with a self-titled album. This first album led to some attention; also of Frontiers Music. The band inked a deal with the Italian... Continue Reading →
(6/10) One award is almost a safe bet when it comes to Lordi and their new album. The artwork belongs to the most stupid and pubescent ones in 2018. The five Finns were never famous for great cover artwork but this time they reached an all-time-low. My hope, that the music is better than the... Continue Reading →
