Obscura
Slowing down is always a risky business. For the uninitiated, ERADIKATOR are one of the UK's best and most respected contemporary thrash metal bands.

Mysterium Tremendum
You can't stop progress, as Neil Fallon memorably put it.

Celestial Mechanics
Few musicians encapsulate the freewheeling spirit of the metal underground like Shane Embury.
