I did a feature on Grom Records a while back and included an interview with label head honcho Milan. Since Milan is a crazy metal warrior and is always keeping busy with new releases, he sent me a package of stuff from both Grom Records, and also some stuff from his new sub [...]

These self described “rape thrash” lunatics from my 2nd city: Portland, Oregon, have been decimating and insulting ears and brains since 2009. If you like black/thrash like Nifelheim, Bestial Mockery and OLD, you should like this band. They also remind me of a mix of the early Sepultura stuff, the Mayhem demos and [...]

This is a killer and totally solid death metal album that I enjoyed. It is almost HARD to classify. These guys have been at it for a while now. Some of these maniacs were in the thrash band Termination from the late 80s and later the death metal band Thanatopsis, from the same [...]

More deadly old school death metal, this time it spawns from The Netherlands. These sickos have actually been at it for a while, since 2001. Now the death metal that Massive Assault slays forth REEKS of ancient Swedish death metal. But regardless of what the influence is, or what the delivery is, Massive [...]

Enthroned, Belguim’s most respected Black Metal band, just released their ninth studio album, Obsidium.   Continuing in the progression that started for the band two albums ago, the new album contains nine crushing tracks of well produced, yet still grim satanic black metal.   Having had the honor of sharing the stage with Enthroned [...]

This is an interview that I originally did back in 2009 for my friend’s webzine THE WERKSHED. Annick is an interesting metal head and I felt that this was a cool interview and her story needs to be heard. This was done right as her book HELLBENT FOR COOKING came out and a short time [...]

Released towards the end of the summer of 1991, “Metallica” (or “The Black Album”) would take these thrash metal titans from the biggest thing in heavy metal, to pure rock god super stardom and stadium filling heroes to [...]

I like bands that, when you hear the name, you kind of know what’s ahead. There’s no guessing what a band called Behemoth might sound like. Same for Mournful Congregation. You’re going to get sad and depressed, aren’t you? You better believe it. Pretty sure when Slayer first came around, [...]

Ever wondered what it would be like to be buried alive? To hear the dull thud of earth as it hits the outside of your casket, shovelful by shovelful, slowly encasing you six feet below the living. To feel the slow process of decomposition invade first your mind and then your flesh. [...]
