Last year we celebrated the 10th edition of the Metal Storm Awards, and earlier this year we observed the Awards' 10th anniversary with its own special competition. Now, finally, the 2014 Awards have come to a close. Countless bands and users alike have come and gone in those years, but the spirit of the Awards has remained the same; as we like to say, it's not about who wins and loses, but about discovering new bands. While this year's Awards had a smaller voter turnout than the previous couple, 2014 still had its fair share of friendly competition. (by BitterCOld) Read more ›› |

You can enjoy the 7-minute track over here right this minute. Very melodic, the song gives plenty of room for MLny Parsonz's voice to shine. (by BloodTears) Read more ›› |

Entry #53. These strange men came to visit us yesterday. They didn't look like they were doctors because they dressed funny and they sometimes spoke in a weird language. They asked if anyone had been to Iceland. I was mildly surprised that quite a few in our ward stated for a fact that they had. The men said: "there's nothing interesting in Iceland. Don't go there. Just empty land, volcanoes and black sands." When they left the world dimmed and colours faded. I don't trust them. I don't trust anyone much any more. (by Ivor, Darkside Momo) Read more ›› |

I am usually genuinely surprised when some bands come to revisit my little country in a fairly short while, say a couple of years. For them to be back in just half a year is a pretty significant achievement, especially for something as popular as Amaranthe. Well, the new album has been released between then and now, and maybe not everybody could make it to the show in Haapsalu. Given the warm reception there, it is fairly logical for the band to take to the stage here in such a short while. (by Ivor) Read more ›› |

Lethian Dreams - Red Silence Lodge (2014)
To be specifically noted for atmosphere within doom metal requires a particular kind of approach to the genre. The Parisian band Lethian Dreams have released their third record in a style which would place great significance on the meaning of ambience, with an accommodating sound made more substantial in Red Silence Lodge.
