Coathanger Abortion - Dying Breed
If you´re easily offended by Brutal Death Metal and its lyrical excretions or gore-ridden attitude, Coathanger Abortion will be the wrong choice for you. Anyone else should keep on reading, because you might miss an interesting band. Formed back in 2001 and emerging from the vaults of Chattanooga, Tennessee, Coathanger Abortion discharges a putr...

Murder Intentions - A Prelude To Total Decay
When you think about the Belgian extreme music scene, you'll certainly think of Agathocles, Aborted, Enthroned, Ancient Rites or maybe even Punished Earth. Now Belgium strikes again!

At The Gates - The Flames Of The End
Wow, this item brings back a few memories. Nine years after the “Suicidal Final Art” compilation album, our prayers have been heard. The first and (obviously) last DVD of At The Gates was launched by Earache Records. What we have here is nothing else but the worthy inheritance of one of the best and most influential Swedish bands ever. This DVD set...

The Anal Treatment XXX-Perience - Inhuman Anal Exploration
What do you expect when you take a look the name The Anal Treatment XXX-Perience? It should be clear these Greek guys aren't the next Necrophagist, but that doesn't mean “Inhuman Anal Exploration” is a crappy release. But first things first. The band was founded in 2008 and since then this filthy four-piece outfit created the “Anal Promo” and th...

Lost God - Savage Souls
Hailing from Belgium, Lost God offer us their very first sign of life entitled “Savage Souls”. With purchasing this well produced item you get nothing else than Death Metal with occasional Black Metal elements every now and then to enrich the already variable tracks. Every song on this EP contains comprehensible, not too intricate shapes of melodie...

Los Sin Nombre - Blind Leading Blind
“Blind Leading Blind” is Los Sin Nombres very first full length release, after launching not less than 4 demos between the bands founding year 2002 and 2007. Rooted in melodic Death Metal, the 5 Swedish dudes from Linköping offer an impressive album that will surely help to spread the name Los Sin Nombre. But first things first. One of the primaril...
