EP REVIEW: Ravenlight – Intermission

For me, the best cover songs sound like the artists own creation. To the point where you are shocked to find out they covered the song and it wasn’t their own. Symphonic Power Metallers RAVENLIGHT are the latest band to show that this is the case with their upcoming EP Intermission, this is bridge between … Continue reading EP REVIEW: Ravenlight – Intermission

Album Review: TesseracT – P O R T A L S

In 2020, the world as we knew it was put to a halt as we collectively attempted to battle the catastrophic Coronavirus.

Every … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: Electric Universe – Timeless

ALBUM REVIEW: Boom Dox – Dead Nation

This is an album I feel really reaches out to ones who rebel and feel that power ladder should be tipped upside down and made non-existent. Also that the ones in the “power” positions need to be put in their place so that the double standards we are often held to are made obsolete. The … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: Boom Dox – Dead Nation

ALBUM REVIEW: Anthropophagus Depravity – Apocalypto

Lets see what we have here: tribal, sacrificial, anarchy, apocalyptic, screaming and the sound of blood splattering on the nearby temple walls and a literal translation of cannibal. This can only mean one thing; its time to slice open a chest and tear our a heart to give to the bloody thirsty and soul hungry … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: Anthropophagus Depravity – Apocalypto

ALBUM REVIEW: Devin Townsend – Devolution Series #2: Galactic Quarantine

The Pandemic lockdowns have been very tough on all of us mentally, but in particular live music. No gigs for any bands which means no revenue with fans tickets cancelled and such. So musicians had to start getting creative with ways to connect with their fans. Devin Townsend started doing live online concerts for the … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: Devin Townsend – Devolution Series #2: Galactic Quarantine

EP REVIEW: Juliet Ruin – Dark Water

Freshly unleashed upon my musical radar is JULIET RUIN, a band that I hadn’t come across ... until now!

Their latest EP … Continue reading EP REVIEW: Juliet Ruin – Dark Water
