Mater Larvarum
Born as a DEATH SS tribute act, but now several albums along a glittering but shadow-shrouded path of their own, DEATHLESS LEGACY should really be much better known. Their sound is rooted in heavy metal horror, of course, but also in the razor-sharp power metal anthemry of bands like POWERWOLF, the...December 8, 2022

RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE Bassist TIM COMMERFORD Launches New Trio 7D7D

The band's debut track, "Capitalism", has just been released via Mad Bunny Records and can be streamed below. It is hard to pinpoint what hits you first — the misleading...November 25, 2022

The Majesty Of Decay
There is nothing quite like some rigorous independent thinking to make narrow-minded folk wet their beds. JUDICATOR have been one of power metal's most potent forces for some time, with a sound that owed plenty to BLIND GUARDIAN without ever borrowing directly from them, and that sounded neither ove...November 23, 2022

Lightwork
The last few years have found Devin Townsend in a somewhat fractious mood. 2019's "Empath" was one of his most extravagant and unhinged releases to date: an epic prog metal monolith that threw an extraordinary number of disparate ideas together, with sublime but startling results. Last year's "The P...October 31, 2022

HOST, the new project from PARADISE LOST vocalist Nick Holmes and guitarist Greg Mackintosh, will release its debut album, "IX", on February 24, 2023 via Nuclear Blast Records. The music video for the LP's first single, "Tomorrow's Sky", a cascading, synth-laden track driven by an insatiable pop voc...October 21, 2022

Death, Where Is Your Sting?
After four acclaimed albums and nearly a decade of active service, the idea that AVATARIUM were ever just another side project for the endlessly prolific Leif Edling now seems ridiculous. If 2013's self-titled debut occasionally strayed a little too close to the CANDLEMASS mothership in terms of rif...October 19, 2022

Tales From Six Feet Under Vol. II
Two albums in it is more than apparent that Charlotte Wessels was always destined to be a solo artist. As frontwoman with DELAIN she presided over some of the classiest tunes to emerge from the symphonic metal scene over the last decade, but as she demonstrated with startling panache on 2020's "Tale...October 6, 2022

Army Of Dreamers
Armed with the kind of pipes that cause serious structural damage, Russell Allen can usually be relied upon to sing the living shit out of everything he records, whether with SYMPHONY X or any of the generally great collaborations he has explored over the years. Similarly, Anette Olzon has undergone...September 6, 2022

Westgate Under Fire
Not content with being a world-class frontman in the greatest festival party band on the planet (that's SKINDRED, fact fans), Benji Webbe returned to a rejigged DUB WAR in 2015 and "Westgate Under Fire" is the long-awaited result. The Welshman's former band briefly threatened to bother the mai...August 4, 2022

Brotherhood
After over four decades of relentless rocking, most people would have run out of ideas and found something less exhausting to pursue. Luckily, Mat Sinner is not most people. The German has been prolific and resolute for 40 years now, both with SINNER and the reliably steel-plated PRIMAL FEAR, and wh...July 13, 2022

Mirrorcell
Audibly happy to be confounding people that thought they had him pegged, Greg Puciato's second solo album adheres to the same principles of blurred-genre anarchy that informed the first, 2020's "Child Soldier: Creator of God". Sufficiently removed from anything he had done previously, that album bri...June 29, 2022

JON LORD: 'A Visual Biography' Due In September
Wymer Publishing has set a September 23 release date for "Jon Lord: A Visual Biography". Lord will forever be immortalized as a musical pioneer. His attitude towards his art form — "It's all music" — ensured that he embraced his joint passions for rock 'n' roll and orchestral music, along with other...June 20, 2022

As If We Never Existed
One of the most distinctive female voices in metal and also one of the most criminally underrated, Sarah Jezebel Deva has been conspicuous by her absence from the metal scene for a number of years. While not a full-throated comeback by any means, "As If We Never Existed" showcases exactly what we ha...June 5, 2022

Head First
One may have to be of a certain age and disposition to be remotely excited by the phrase "funk-metal." The arrival of HEAD FIRST seems to suggest that there are more than a few of us out there, pining for the glory days when bands like FAITH NO MORE, pre-suck RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, FISHBONE and MORD...May 24, 2022
