€ 5.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 119
The previous Infinity albums featured guests like Tarja Turunen (ex-Nightwish), Candice Night (Blackmore's Night) and Fabio Lione (Rhapsody Of Fire) among others on the first, Antti Railio (Celesty), Aldo Lonobile (Secret Sphere) Sonia Pineault (Forgotten Tales) and more on the second. Now Beto Vazquez is back, featuring a guest list that isn't less impressive than on the previous CDs: Olaf Thorson (Vision Divine), Sandra Schleret (Elis), Marcela Bovio (Stream Of Passion), Eddy Antonini and Kiara (Skylark), Manda Ophuis and H. J. (Nemesea), Pablo G. Soler and a few more should be enough to whet the interest of most Melodic Metal lovers.
The music style should be fairly obvious. This is of course female-fronted Symphonic Power Metal, reminiscent of a mix of a lot of bands already mentioned in this review. Most of the songs are very mellow and the album has a lot of ballads, still the CD as a whole is very multi-layered.
Production-wise this release is superb. At exactly the right times it feels slightly unpolished and on the parts where it should be, it's as clean as the glasses in every washing powder commercial.
In regards to the list of guest musicians mr. Vazquez could have done something better. It's also unfortunate that a couple of the guests sound very similar, the same thing is true for the three not-guest vocalists the band has. Also some more really powerful songs wouldn't have done the album any bad.
Still "Darkmind" is a very good album. It might not sink in on the very first listen, but after a few spins, especially in quiet and peaceful moments, fans of Melodic Metal should be able to greatly appreciate it!
Re-edition includes two bonus tracks.

Unlike most power metal bands, Betoken is metal that you can relax to. The vocals aren't soaring or extremely flamboyant, but instead they are laid back yet perky and stressed in time, alternating between male and female vocals while the dual guitars work impeccably in time to create crushing rhythms and flowing harmonies. The bass is deep and full, complimenting moderately technical drumming within the swirling aura of sound.

BETZEFER “The Devil Went Down To The Holy Land” /CD/
- Product Code: HF352
-
€ 9.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 99
Most successful Metal band from Israel has released their third studio album.
The band is compromised with Groove Metal at the heaviest way that can be, but as well they got tons of melodic energy and high doses of Hard N’ Roll. A really catching music, indeed, with very good vocals (a mix between Max Cavalera and Phil Anselmo in a more melodic way), very good guitar work, a heavy bass and drums’ rhythmic basis.
With the helping hand of the producer Tue Madsen (The Haunted, Sick Of It All, Mnemic), the sounding is heavy and clean, making the band’s music flow with energy and that “oiled” sensation that all we have when dealing with Groove Metal, but without setting the instruments into a chaotic mass of sound. You’ll hear them all clearly and strong.
The explosive and hooky “The Devil Went Down to the Holy Land” (with some Rock N’ Roll touches), “Killing The Fuss”, the way down and heavy “Yuppie Six Feet Underground”, the mid-tempo “The Medic” (good riffs, indeed), the heavy and oppressive “Cannibal” (drums and bass heavy as hell, with some grunts that really get near Death Metal sometimes), and the charming “Can You Hear Me Now?” will give you maximum drive and satisfaction!
Be happy, and be Heavy!!

Veterans of Chicago’s Rock n’ Roll, Bible Of The Devil had released their seventh full-length and third for Rome based label Cruz Del Sur Music.
Entitled “For The Love Of Thugs And Fools”, Bible Of The Devil’s eagerly anticipated follow-up to their 2008 release,"Freedom Metal”, is an assembly of raging Rock n’ Roll songs that encapsulate the band’s saga musically and personally over the years since the last full-length.
Returning to Phantom Manor studios in Chicago, the band sought to emphasize their trademark bludgeoning two-guitar attack and mammoth hooks with an increased attention to soaring, anthemic vocals.
These guys embody the spirit of early Hard Rock/Proto Metal, specifically Thin Lizzy with a pinch of early NWOBHM. They can shred dual-guitar harmonies and sing about Rock n’ Roll without a shred of irony, though they’re obviously having fun doing it. “For The Love Of Thugs And Fools” is viewed by the band as a document of the many characters they have encountered through the life of the band, whether it be in love, loss, friendship, or hatred. Guitar harmonies casually weave in and out of songs, and gigantic choruses are delivered like a karaoke night that got way out of hand.
This album could’ve been released in 1979 and no one would f*****g blink, except maybe a few tracks that could’ve come out in 1983. You will be singing these songs in your car while fist-pounding the steering wheel. You will find yourself air-guitaring them at inappropriate moments in your life, such as your aunt’s funeral. You will have the chorus to “I Know What Is Right (In The Night)” stuck in your head when you go to take a leak. These songs are packed with enough catchy hooks and riffs to overcome the weak production and questionable singing, so if you enjoy old-school Rock music of high quality, this band and this album might be the thing for you!

Big Bang Babies was a Sleaze Glam Metal band from Hollywood, California, playing during the 1990s. Their sound incorporated Rock, bubblegum Pop and Glam, with a Punky attitude.
The band was originally made up of singer Kit Ashley, guitarist Keri Kelli, bassist Tweety Boyd, and drummer Freddie Ferrin. Freddie Ferrin was replaced by drummer Keith Morgan (aka Keith Alan).
All five members later went on to play in other bands, most notably Keri Kelli, who has played with Alice Cooper, Ratt, Skid Row, Warrant, Poison, and Slash's Snakepit, among others.

BILL CUTLER “Crossing The Line” /Digipack CD/
- Product Code: MTX-2316-2
-
€ 9.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 99
Bill Cutler arrived in San Francisco in 1970, spent the following decades producing other people’s records, and on his first album we can hear all those influences and experiences. His guitar and high tenor anchor these self-penned, intelligent Rock ’n’ Roll songs, covering the range of styles you’d expect from a musician who came of age in the 60s and 70s.
"Crossing The Line" is a nice piece of work finished after 30 years in the making. Singing lead vocals and playing rhythm guitar on 14 original songs, Cutler is joined on his new album by many of the legendary Bay Area musicians he has worked with in the past. The first half was recorded back in the 1970s at Wally Heider's Studios in San Francisco, with Steve Barncard engineering, and a great bunch of players, including Jerry Garcia and Scotty Quik on lead guitars, Austin deLone on keys, Pat Campbell on bass, and Carl Tassi on drums. Those tracks were not completed at the time and remained unfinished, until Bill finally recorded the second half of this album in 2000, using some of the same musicians, along with lead guitarists Jorma Kaukonen, Jerry Miller, Mark Karan, David Nelson, and Barry Sless on various tracks. The original analog tapes have been restored and given a state-of-the-art sound by engineer/mixer Russell Bond. Six of tracks were recorded with Jerry Garcia (ex- Grateful Dead; R.I.P.). The other included stalwarts are Bob Weir, Jeff Watson, Matthew Kelly, and Michael Falzarano.
But before you go thinking this is a long lost Grateful Dead album, think again, because the credit here should go to Cutler. Although it may sound a bit like "In The Dark"’s long lost cousin, Cutler is front and center with his vocals, which are most impressive, along with the crisp production that screams old-school glory. There are many keepers here, including “Ridin’ High”, “Starlite Jamboree”, and “Rockingham Mill”, all of which dance to their own groovy beat.
After listening the whole album, you will hear the work of someone who really knows his hooks. Since it’s a producer’s album, every note is in its place and every instrument’s tone is pure. It’s great to hear Garcia’s unmistakable solos in this context, especially on the warm, extended, two-chord jam ending “Delta Nightingale” and, weirdly, on “Starlite Jamboree”, which is Bill’s eulogy for Jerry. This is the advantage to developing an album’s worth of tracks over about 20 years! As a songwriter, performer, producer and manager, Bill Cutler continues to work in all aspects of today’s music business. So, don’t let another 30 years pass you by before giving this one a spin!!

Band emerged in November 2008 from the ashes of Fatal Portrait. After many conversations, three of the original founders of Fatal Portrait (Varhken, Phallux and Orgen) developed a new Black Metal project. While the new project was coming into shape, the guys got in touch with Pulsarth (from Noesis, a band where Phallux and Varhken also play) and asked him to be in charge of the bass.
In January 2009, the line up was completed with Abathor (from Gathering Darkness and Detriment Sorrow) as second guitarist. It was then when the composition works started; ten different songs were developed but only seven of them were finally recorded in Novermber at Khazad-Dûm studios, where the owner, Erun-Dagoth (Briargh, Hrizg, ex-CrystalMoors, Eldereon, Moonshine) produced the material, recorded, mixed and mastered all the songs that presented on the album.

The Finnish foursome plays their brand of music hard and heavy focusing on the power of the riff and an aggressive vocal style from vocalist Jason.
The nine songs here are rather angry. The music of this band is melodic and full of energy, staying far from those Stoner bands that uses a dusty and raw sound quality. Some parts sound modern and abrasive, but they have also some more melodic and musically accessible parts. Here everything is clear, with very good musical arrangements, and their musical influences are not locked in the past. Very good musical arrangements and the vocals are very good, using a fine diversity of tunes; the guitars are doing an excellent work on the riffs, the rhythmic kitchen is doing a fine job, guiding the tempos and giving the band a good musical range, and this all is fused to create a fine kind of music. The band creates a riff factory of guitar lines and ensure that Pete’s Bass and Mikko’s drums are straight in your face. With simplistic song structures and the focus placed heavily on the groove, Black .44 does a nice job bringing their anger out into each track. Jason’s vocals are far from perfect, but work very effectively on No Blanks.
The sound quality they got is very, very good. Their music sound clean and heavy in the due proportions, creating something that sound aggressive and full of energy, but with clearness to understand what the band is playing.
Songs like “The Red Saint” and “The Outlaw” are ass-kickers with infectious riff work and can be compared to a more modern Metallica at least as far as the guitar licks go. The comparisons stop there though. The energetic and powerful "Overcome" (with some modern touches and very good use of vocal tunes' variations), the almost commercial song "Into The Grace", and the slow and bitter "Born Wrong" can be said as their best moments, besides the album is entirely very good.
Overall, "No Blanks" is a great debut from a band up North. This band has a future!

BLACK ANVIL “Triumvirate” /CD/
- Product Code: RR7090
-
€ 9.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 99
The second full-length studio album by American Thrashing Black Metal band.
"Triumvirate"’s assault is powerful, primal, and pure; capturing and channelling the spirit of Metal’s earliest trailblazers through a 21st century urban hostility. The second album from New York trio is as churning and rage-filled as its predecessor. Their sound is very slightly cleaned up from the debut, which had almost the same falling-apart quality as the Hellhammer demos, to which they were so clearly indebted (hell, the album ended with a cover of Celtic Frost's "Dethroned Emperor"!). It's still rough, Grim Black/Death Metal, though, with the band members' Hardcore roots showing through. The music is heavier than most Old-School Black Metal, with plenty of bass and a hard, thwacking drum sound; these guys aren't concerned with retaining a lo-fi sound.
This is not a particularly ambitious album -- Black Anvil have little interest in being progressive, lyrically or musically. But when taken on its own guttural, hyperaggressive terms, it's an absolute success! "Triumvirate" unquestionably leaves Black Anvil’s enduring, pitch-black mark on the Metal world!!

BLACK CULT "Cathedral Of The Black Cult" /CD/
- Product Code: ASR18-125/CD

€ 9.90
- Price in bonus-scraps: 99
The second full-length album by Croatian Black Metal band.
Containing 10 songs, including Motörhead cover “Kingdom of the Worm”, it's a manifestation of the individual presence of its creators within the Black Metal scene for almost two decades. Each track is a journey into a realm of despair and darkness, mainly due to the harsh vocals and cold & dark guitar melodies that blend perfectly together.
This is not an album that anyone can just 'whack on' in the background willy nilly. It must be listened to intently and taken in like the musical drug that it is. "Cathedral Of The Black Cult" is a flawless, yet intimidating musical experience which will open a portal to another dimension to the listener who's ready to gaze into it.
Streaming melodic riffs in extended phrases form the defining character of each song with representational distinction and progressions towards tonal and rhythmic changes, communicating the purpose of hierarchical sequence observed in nature’s ferociously necessary order of operation, reflected in the substance of the inner-self, magnified in the character of spiritual striving and agonizing existential discovery.
This is pure unsaturated Black Metal in all of its cold fury! There isn’t just grim lyrics reflecting the power of Satan and the beauty of Darkness, but the album actually draws the listener into the world beyond humanity. If you truly understand the music, you will be taken to the dark endless universe!!
This is the future and the past of the Black Metal! This is a masterpiece of Black Metal and Extreme Metal in general!! Every other word and description is pointless...
For fans of: Satyricon, Emperor, Mayhem, and all Black Metal fans in general.

Black Label Society already has a previous hits collection entitled "The Kings Of Damnation" that was released a few years back. For whatever reason their previous label, Eagle Rock Entertainment, have seen fit to issue another hits compilation from America's favorite beer-bellied, scruffy, shredder Zakk Wylde. It's not an entirely bad idea as "Skullage" doubles audio collection that covers everything from "Pride & Glory" to "Shot To Hell". Everyone has a favorite Black Label Society album and chances are there will be something that gets missed.
"Skullage" highly recommended as a starter package to those who are considering enlisting in their regional chapter of the Black Label Society!
