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.

A small new update suggests that the new Arcturus album is coming together these days. Last year, Hellhammer laid down the drum tracks for the album, and recently the official Facebook page for the band posted a short update: "Recording vocals". Short but good news! We'll just have to wait for more updates then. Fans have been waiting for a long time since the band's last album Sideshow Symphonies came out in 2005 already. (by toxx) Read more ›› |

Deiphago - Filipino Antichrist (2009)
Costa Rican Black metal baby...! Wait, what? Yeah, Deiphago resides on Costa Rica, after a couple of years of chillin' in the Philippines. Apparently they started their unholy rituals in '89, which is a bit hard to believe in my opinion, but well, who am I to dispute that? So, after precisely twenty years we can finally hear their second full-length, Filipino Antichrist. Rejoice. Deiphago plays their Black metal the Blasphemy way. In other words, you're in for a short burst of violent...
