Motherland is the new album of the Danish melodic metal band ‘Pretty maids’. The band was formed in 1982. At first I have to say what I really like is the variety in the album. Some songs are more melodically, other songs a little bit harder almost like power metal. …

As I sit here nursing my coffee whilst causally gauzing out at the sunlight illuminated fog which currently shrouds Hollywood in its intimidating mysteriousness I am trying to move mind into gear and stop gauzing  out of the window and towards finding a starting point for this review.

Following on from 2009’s Memento Mori,   New Horizons features 10 songs of emotionally driven radio friendly metal. The launch of this album has been overshadowed by the announcement that lead …

    Clutch move effortlessly through the gears before parking a big Rock N Roll truck , slap bang on your front lawn. Ten albums into a mighty fine career and Clutch sure as Hell show no signs of waning. In fact this is an album that will surely end …

Tonight’s bill is a typically eclectic one – ranging from classic thrash through dark sludge to ambient black metal – ensuring a healthy crowd drawn from a wide spectrum of Belfast’s metal community, with the added advantage of it being the beginning of (for many) a long holiday weekend helping …

First up tonight was Mia Klose. I’d purchased her album before Christmas and enjoyed her 80’s rock sound so was looking forward to seeing how she’d be live.   clearly a lot of other fans were keen to see her too as there was already a good crowd by the …

A sumptuous banquet of Gothic, Female Fronted Metal to satisfy the most ravenous of appetites. I had the pleasure of catching this band live some two or three years ago and was immediately taken by the epic Gothic tinged Metal on show, infused with an irresistible catchy element that was …

The first thing I want to say this album is not my favourite album. Some songs are good but the most songs are not the best. The album starts with a quiet intro which gets louder. The next song ‘ Ouroboros Chains is one of the songs I don’t really like. The …
