Tremors are back in action with ‘Shores.’

After surfacing in 2002 with their debut album, the death metal band Tremors has been quiet for some time, only releasing an EP here and there but mostly seeming to remain inactive. Now, they’ve recently resurfaced with a new attitude and a new album- ‘Frozen Shores’- which has so far resounded well with fans, both new and old. Brutalism has been lucky...

Yggdrasil restart themselves with a mix of black n’ folk metal

Yggdrasil has been one of those names in underground metal that made a stunning mark with their debut, and then suddenly changed things up over time.

Kratein keep busy with the metal in their spare time

It’s been about a year since the haunting debut of ‘Trauma’ was released by black metal’s Kratein, but there’s no rest for the wicked. Each member of the band has been hard at work with their other projects along with working on new material for Kratein, and lately they’ve been preparing for a large festival in July. I got a chance to...

Hemoptysis rise to power

Arizona’s metal horde sees a new name surface in the ranks of powerful death metal: Hemoptysis. Delivering crushing, brutal death metal combined with thrash and a fresh attitude of work ethic, the band works hard at delivering the best they can while adhering to their own metal philosoph(ies). They have many influences, but stray from trying to sound like copying any one...

Yiddish and metal come together in a unique union with Dibbukim

Dibbukim brought quite a surprise to fans with their debut album, Az a Foygl un a Goylem Tantsn. It defies the usual expectations of folk metal and by introducing Yiddish in a metal format, basically created a whole new genre to enjoy. It’s atypical, and that is what grabbed fan attention so quickly. The band was kind enough to discuss a bit...

Finally Deceased seemed almost dead for a while before ‘disappearing’ in 1996. Now, they’re back with  a vengeance from a long hibernation, and the results are fantastic. This death metal trio have really upped their game for the recent years and expectations of metal fans that are always changing as the years go by. I got a chance to talk to the...

Fleshcut bring the death metal!

It’s not very often that one finds a band that is really amped up about their genre, but Fleshcut really mean business when it comes to their death metal. They have their heart more set on EPs than full lengths, but only because they want to deliver the best of their music to their fans. Rather than blatantly release large doses of...

Going strong with loyal legions and good intentions

Korpius knows what makes death metal decent, and this reflects in their latest album, ‘Shades of Black.’ Rather than stick to one side of death metal, the band does their best to mix many different influences into their music, from black to technical, and the reception from fans has really show an interest. Starting strong and still going strong, Korpius value their...

Art is another word for Ana Kefr (along with metal)

With just a few months to go before the release of their second album, progressive death metal heads Ana Kefr has been hard at work preparing for their first tour and getting things ready with the label. But, Rhiis (vocals, keyboard), enjoys keeping busy when not figuring out new ways to continue evolving the band. He is completely against rip offs of...

Destruktor says ‘to hell’ with all trends

Quite personally, I’ve never really met a more fiery metal personality when it comes to Glenn of Australian based death metal band, Destruktor. He, however, really knows how to speak his mind. The man doesn’t let shit get in his way when it comes to his band, and lets his philosophy about ‘true, extreme metal’ outweigh the temptation of corporate whoring that...
