Anubis Gate - Horizons
Girlfriend Metal
Following up their excellent self-titled uh... fifth album, most fans knew that this album was going to be a disappointment. Suffering the loss of a founding guitarist and drummer, the odds were on a steaming pile of Danish doo-doo. Yet somehow, this album comes out like a delicious wienerbrød. Still one of the only bands that I can never seem to figure out when songs are going to end or begin, the structures are interesting enough to avoid boring us to death with ordinary melodic prog/power metal. If you want a band that knows how to write great catchy songs without all the plague of pompousness that most modern prog metal suffers from, you may enjoy this.

Just three months after releasing its latest album, Interval 02: Parallel Infinities - The Abscinded Universe, progressive death metal project Lascaille's Shroud is announcing a new release, named Lascaille's Shroud Presents Curaga.

A couple weeks ago Lacuna Coil played in Denver, CO as part of the Revolver - Hottest Chicks In Hard Rock Tour, but since they announced a gig mere 15 minutes from my house, I opted to skip the drive up to the Mile High city and catch them locally instead. (by D.T. Metal) Read more ›› |

Alkonost - Pesni Vechnogo Dreva (2007)
If I must give you the name of a Russian band that I particularly like, I will talk about Alkonost. The Russian combo is not really famous but all people who use to listen to Folk and Pagan music know this really good band which uses to releases excellent albums years after years. Released in 2007, "Pesni Vechnogo Dreva" is actually partially composed of re-recorded songs from the beginning of the career of Alkonost. It's not easy to find their first demos so of course this CD is really...
