The first re-release on vinyl of the seventh EP by legendary Belgian Grindcore band.
These recordings are something like a "Belgian Peel Session". Kloot P. Wee, a producer, and DJ of a Metal program on the national radio station, contacted the band and offered them to record a session at the recording studios of the Belgian national radio station. It was recorded in April 1996 and broadcasted by the radio station a few months later.
11 legendary Mince Core tracks, pressed on a 12″ saw-blade vinyl, spinning at 45 RPM for the best fidelity. The record comes with completely new artwork. The answer to the question, what does that really mean "Bomb Brussels", and much other interesting information can be found in the liner notes, attached to the insert, written by Jan AG in June 2021.

Agathocles had much trouble in Canada, therefore for the band this is a release to say thanks to all the people who have been so helpful, caring, and supportive when they played there. You can read the full story at the liner notes written by Jan AG.

The session includes lots of classic Agathocles songs, such as "Theatric Symbolisation Of Life", "Mutilated Regurgitator", "Consuming Endoderme Pus" or "Kill Your Fucking Idols".

Debut full-length album by Mexican Thrash Metal band.
Old school Raw Thrash Metal that has a lot of conviction to it execution wise.
Agggressor play mostly fast, very riff-orientated and rough Thrash Metal with amazingly high energy levels. These Mexican fellows know how to Thrash - and how to Thrash convincingly enough to be a bit more precise with all of you. A cover song done for "Painkiller"" by Judas Priest, does also sound pretty kickass. They have surely given some close ear to their cover song choice, no doubts.
As for the production on "Release Of Aggression", this is just a demo standard production but it actually is meant to be so on purpose, just to provide more of that old school feel to the album. Agggressor is a very potential Thrash Metal band, absolutely!
For fans of early Demolition Hammer and  Infernal Majesty!!

The fifth full-length studio album by cult Canadian Thrash Metal band.
Formed in 1984, Aggression are without a doubt one of the most legendary Thrash Metal bands from Canada. Their debut full-length album, "The Full Treatment", is a classic of the genre. After their split, Aggression resurrected for good in 2014 with a new line-up and has played over 250 concerts in North America and Europe since then. 
On "From Hell With Hate" Aggression show their usual style, a dirty and corrosive Thrash Metal with Crossover hints.

The fourth full-length album by American Black Metal band.
The album features 7 tracks at almost 51 minutes with an average track length of over 7 minutes. Old school Black Metal with Pagan influences. Classic Bathory, Emperor, Dissection and Satyricon (the first couple of albums) come to mind, but maybe a little more experimental or Symphonic. 
Overall, the mood and vibe seems darker while still being a more accessible album, which is hard to pull off but has been done so successfully here. What also gives this album appeal is the right amount of knob twisting and mixing to the overall sound. There is enough grit and roughness but still having the clarity necessary to make it worth listening to. While still heavy, “Taran” opens up some new possibilities for Akashah in terms of musical direction!

The second full-length album by American Middle Eastern Folk Black/Death Metal band.
A project of two very talented brothers, Akhenaten is a Black/Death Metal act similar to Melechesh, Nile or SepticFlesh. The Houseman brothers have separate duties here, with Jerred handling all of the music and S. Wyatt handling the vocals. The brothers excel heavily in creating Egyptian atmospheres, especially when there are no vocal elements involved (and there are several of these).
"Incantations Through The Gates Of Irkalla" is the sort of album that balances Atmosphere and Metal together quite brilliantly. Akhenaten feels like a good band, with a whole lot promise; fans of SepticFlesh and Melechesh will thoroughly enjoy this album!!

Debut full-length album by Greek Black Metal band.
A machine well oiled by the musical exploits of their more well-known Scandinavian forebears, "Behold The Son Of Plagues" might not be the most unique album of its kind but the sonic hellfire contained in these ten tracks leaves little doubt as to the band’s mastery of all things black. Fierce and passionately executed, "Behold The Son Of Plagues" is the manifesto of a band so dedicated to their chosen craft they practically seem to will it into existence.
Traces of Watain, Marduk and Setherial, as well as those of slightly less celebrated names like Pestilential Shadows and Enthroned abound, and though these Greeks’ sonic lineage is clear they are ultimately a beast unto themselves. The strident chord progressions and emotive melodies naturally won me over right from the get-go (see the belligerent “Antimatter as I”) but the album’s secret weapon lies elsewhere. The production job has the distinction of being simultaneously jagged and voluminous, leaving no doubt that you’re dealing with a black metal album here but one where the finer intricacies of the music aren’t buried in mud.
The other big plus is the subtle playfulness that permeates the songs, as the band often "zigs" when you expect them to "zag". Their tendency to not let loose after periods of sustained build-up (see the title track) and for harsh vocal sections to suddenly collapse into eerie yet serene choral passages (see “To Swarm Deserted Away”) are prime examples of the off-kilter dynamics at play here. The two major highlights arrive at the tail end of the album, with the windswept melancholy of “Wine of Blasphemies” leading effortlessly into the very Deathspell Omega-like “Send Us to Swines”, with its jangly riff constructs and detached melodies bringing to mind an album like Paracletus.
All things considered, this is a stellar effort by a very promising band, something made even more impressive given that they only formed a scant two years ago. "Behold The Son Of Plagues" is recommended for those who prefer their Black Metal steeped in tradition yet playful enough to rescue it from redundancy.

The fourth full-length album by Costa Rican Black Metal band.
The new long-awaited album by Symphonic Black Metal masters from Latin America.
This album is a pure manifesto of evil Black Metal art in the vein of early 90-es performed and recorded at a new up-to-date level yet preserving its dark and ominous nature.
Musically this album follows organically from the early works of the band and keeps to the same style. It features fast and furious drum attacks, razor-sharp guitar riffs, venomous morbid Black Metal screaming and keyboard lines which create a background against the solid guitar framework. Each song of the album is full of uncompromising brutality required to deliver a nihilistic message to the listeners in the correct way. 
This album is ultimately a really good exemplar of how Symphonic Black Metal should sound if you want a good taste of what the style was originally about, rather than what it’s largely become today.
A refreshing blast from the past; it’s hard to not enjoy this release as there’s such palpable enthusiasm and passion on display here. The songs are just really enjoyable, especially if you were brought up on this kind of thing.

Progressive Metal band from New York (U.S.A.)
ALCHEMY X have been compared to bands like DREAM THEATER and FATES WARNING, SYMPHONY X and DEFYANCE, but can at times sound heavier. They also take a unique approach to their sound, incorporating two guitarists playing 7-string guitars and a bassist playing a 7-string bass, adding furious riffing, bottom-end heaviness and virtuosity to their music.
Highly recommended for all fans of progressive metal.

Oh, wow! It’s time to put on your pirate hat and inflate your rubber ducks, because the world-famous Pirate Metal Drinking Crew Alestorm, have set sail on a new voyage with their seventh studio album!
The band spent two years during the lockdown going insane and frantically dredging up the craziest pirate Metal anthems from their treasure chest of ideas, and have created the most epic and serious (yes, serious) sounding Alestorm album you’ve ever heard. From the symphonic choir-powered “Magellan’s Expedition” which tells the tale of Ferdinand Magellan’s historical circumnavigation of the earth in 1522, to the rousing anthem “Under Blackened Banners” which features intense technical riffing and exquisite solo duels, “Seventh Rum of a Seventh Rum” is a real throwback to the early days of “Captain Morgan’s Revenge”. 
But fans of the modern Alestorm sound need not worry either – there’s plenty of party mood in the aptly-named future hit song “P.A.R.T.Y.”, and the high-speed insane folk metal banger “Cannonball” has the most ridiculous and offensive lyrics you’ve ever heard in a pirate metal song (it makes “Fucked With an Anchor” sound tame).
Once again, the band are joined by a whole host of guest musicians, including repeat appearances from the hurdy-gurdy of Patty Gurdy, the vocals of Captain Yarrface from Rumahoy, the violin playing of Ally Storch from Subway To Sally, majestic choirs from Hellscore, plus some familiar Spanish and Japanese vocalists in the final instalment of the Wooden Leg Saga. Most importantly, the album features the world’s first use of a fried egg as an instrument in a metal song, expertly played by Matt Cockram.
So, what are you waiting for? Crack open seven bottles of ancient rum, and get ready for the musical voyage of a lifetime!!
