Memorial
Kudos to Portugal's MOONSPELL for creating goth with death metal propulsion that should have cross-genre appeal. You heard it on much of "The Antidote", but "Memorial" is a 59-minute gem of an album that manages to be very heavy without dispensing with that Vampire-esque gothic appeal. While I would...April 24, 2006

The trend ain't dead either. Now comes a two-man project called BLACK COBRA that fills every nook and cranny with...April 24, 2006

One of the great injustices of extreme music history is that SADUS are known primarily as a secretarial pool for bigger bands.

Revenge
Believe it or not, the rating above is a vast improvement for Danish third-stringers IRON FIRE. Their debut, "Thunderstorm" (released after the group won some Noise Records battle of the bands contest),was a laughably generic exercise in power metal with particularly anemic and reedy vocals from Ma...April 17, 2006
