The June Frost

The days spent recording MOURNFUL CONGREGATION's "The June Frost" must have been overcast, painfully gloomy, and, somehow, frigidly cold (yes, in Australia).

After an (at best) average debut, "The Impossibility Of Reason" roared in and earned them a spot amongst the powerhouses of the NWOAHM, while its self-titled follow-up was a monstrous display of a band that wasn't afraid to t...

Evolution Through Revolution

Hard to believe it's been twelve years since BRUTAL TRUTH released the breakthrough "Sounds Of The Animal Kingdom". In retrospect though, it seems that absence can make the heart grind harder as "Evolution Through Revolution" is as chaotically creative as anything extreme metal has to offer. Never o...
