The debut full-length album by Singaporean Thrash Metal band.
Old-school all-female band in vein of Sodom, early Kreator, and early Sepultura! Raw, harsh, fast, no frills!!
Active since 2006, now in 2014 we get their debut album that crosses a lot of Punk/Hardcore ethics with a savage Thrash style that is more European based than Bay Area oriented. Kreator, Sodom and others in that raw, mid 80’s Thrash mold come up frequently when taking in songs such as “Seven Feet Under”, the “Raining Blood” – like “Denied” or Crossover quickie “Materialistic War”. Neezie as a vocalist is not going to hit any Operatic or serene singing elements – her voice is very brutal, savage, and in line with the musical template her fellow musicians portray. The vocals are more along the lines of Max Cavalera‘s on Sepultura’s "Bestial Devastation" EP rather than later albums – quite guttural. Alongside a smattering of fairly predictable, though enjoyable, songs are a couple of absolute pearls: “Trash & Torment”, “Infinite Oneness”, “Why” and cover of Kreator’s “Tormentor” is a great homage to the original.
If you can’t get enough of Crossover Thrash, this could be a decent pick up. If there weren’t enough quality Thrash albums produced in the 80’s for you, then this will help make up the numbers!!

The third full-length studio album by Spanish Doom/Sludge Metal band.
"Void Addiction" has a common denominator in its sound: density. Work of heavy rhythms and crushed, with a depth, anger and guturalism in the voices, which make the god of the earthquake tremble.
This album will make a drool of all lovers of Doom Metal and Sludge more intense and sick.

The seventh full-length studio album by cult Czech Death Metal band.
Two years after their last creation, Czech Death Metal icon is back with the "Beneath". Tortharry is active on the Czech Metal scene since 1991, when the band transformed itself from its initial formation named Executor, and began its Death Metal crusade with its first demo "Mezi Nebem A Peklem" ("Between Heaven And Hell"). Over the years, Tortharry amassed an extensive discography and contribute to various Metal compilations, including “Tribute To Death”. The band also have an impressive list of live shows, with symbolic peaks being twin concerts in 1998 in the Czech Republic as a support of the genre icon Death, and a South American tour with Gorgoroth and Belphegor in September 2007.
Sharp guitar riffs, unearthly fast drums and the right Death growl build in the space of nine tracks a monumental acoustic “wall of
death”, which then underscores the dreary, even nihilistic, lyrics of individual songs; a parable of motifs, which are not, or should not be, obvious at the first glance. Hidden thoughts, desires, guilt or crimes, plainly all which is concealed beneath the surface of the apparent, are the thematic cornerstone of this album, as its name itself hints. In short: “I want to bite you until you bleed!”
The release includes Bonus Track “Krvavá Práce”, a cover version of the song by a Czech Metal legend, Debustrol, which is not available on the CD version of the album.

The ninth full-length studio album by Czech Death Metal band.
Tortharry are one of the longest running Czech Metal bands, founded back 1991, and almost iconic stalwarts of the Czech Death Metal scene. Their popularity in this country and abroad is based on their clearly defined style, their way above average musicianship, and on their undying enthusiasm for gigging and songwriting. 
They played a lot of live shows on the worldwide festivals and club stages and tours a lot, including gigs with the phenomenal cult band Death, the Brazilian icon Sepultura, as well as a South American tour with Gorgoroth and Belphegor.
Five years since the release of the “Follow” album, during band's 25th anniversary, one of the leading Brutal Death Metal bands from the Czech Republic reaching another milestone and opening a new chapter of its history.
Though Tortharry have now sufficient reputation to allow for experiments in their music, the band stays true to their long-term genre direction, whereby the new album once again offers a motherload of Technical Death Metal.
With "Sinister Species", the band goes around the whole of the country, and again takes part in a number of summer festivals (Kaltenbach Open Air, Gothoom Open Air, Czech Death Fest) and many others.
The album highly recommended for fans of Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation, Napalm Death, and Dying Fetus!

The fourth full-length studio album by Polish Industrial Groove/Death Metal band.

Second full-length album by Italian Thrash/Death Metal band.
Italy along with its neighboring countries, has become the new breed of quality Thrash Metal bands, like Irreverence, Blindeath, Sofisticator, etc. “The Pound Of Flesh” is a very 2015 style album, but is good enough to please even the Old School Thrash Metal conservatives.
Like many other modern Thrash Metal bands, Total Death depends heavily on the dream beats to sync the loudness with the guitars, which works really well, and great credit has to go to the man behind the drum kit - Alessandra Mossi. The band uses tempo building beautifully. The complex technical riffs demand more attention from the listener as many riffs are hard to comprehend and air-guitar to, and stretch the boundaries of Technical Thrash Metal, something not often off late. The picking and shredding is top notch and impeccable.
The music in this album tells that the band has been heavily influenced by Technical Death Metal and has tried to implement it here and has tried to make it sound like Thrash Metal, which they have nearly succeeded. The bass is excellently used and works great with the guitars. The dirty thick vocals of Paolo Azzimonti (who is also one of the two guitarists) is great on the ears.
The ability to bring both mid temp and high tempo together and shower it with plethora of crazy technical Thrash riffs make “The Pound Of Flesh” stand out among the crowd. While the album isn’t anything close to a classic, but this style of Thrash Metal becoming a trend, and this is actually good, for connoisseurs of riff based Thrash! This band can easily be the future face of Thrash Metal!!

The third full-length album by Italian Gothic/Progressive Metal band.
Hailing from Brescia, Italy, long running Epic/Progressive Metal band Tragodia strikes back with it's 3rd full-length album, a brand new episode of challenging musicianship.
Hitting harder than on the very well-received "Theomachy", released in 2012, on "Mythmaker" the band embarks on an exciting trip into the realms of Epic, merging the most diverse musical influences in what sounds like a companion to modern Heavy Metal. Building on classic Metal twin guitars attack and relentlessly pounding rhythmic structures, as well on a vocally inspired performance and haunting almost Space Rock-driven melodies, Tragodia crafts its most convincing opus so far.
"Mythmaker", contains almost all of the great qualities of such an album: it's heavy, it's melodic, it's progressive, it's catchy, it's heavy, it's groovy. Heavy. It is by no means calm and Jazzy, such as some of the work from the penultimate Dream Theater. In the mixing, the heavily over-driven guitars, and the drums, are at the forefront, adding vertebrae to the heavyweight backbone that drives this album.
Step forward into the realms of obscure myths and shining musical heights, follow the path of the Mythmaker!!

Third full-length album by Norwegian Symphonic Gothic/Black Metal band.
The previous TRAIL OF TEARS album "Profoundemonium" was accompanied by much negativity, with female vocalist Helena Iren Michaelsen as the centre of these disturbances. Now they are back with a vengeance, having found Cathrine Paulsen to take care of the vocal duties along with Ronny Thorsen. The result has been called "A New Dimension Of Might". And result sounds angry! Compared to their previous album they have gained a lot of aggression in their music, sometimes sounding more like Black Metal than their previous Dark Gothic Metal categorisation. However, they have not entirely thrown away their old concepts, but rather added a new twist to their sound. And hey, it worked!
"A New Dimension Of Might" is best described as a perfect equilibrium between Dark Gothic Beauty and Black Metal aggression. This record is one of the most pleasant surprises of the 2002 Metal year!

Debut full-length album by Spanish Thrash Metal band.
Trio from the Balearic Islands, more precisely from the city of Palma de Mallorca. A band that has been playing an energetic and elaborate classic Thrash Metal, strongly influenced by the sound of the old Metallica, Overkill, old Megadetu, Testament, Heathen and the essence of the San Francisco Bay Area scene, plus some elements of European Thrash Metal in the vein of Kreator.
The influence of the band by Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield overflies from time to time, so no surprise when that Trallery began his career as a Metallica tribute band, which played under the name of White Shadow.
Beautiful harmonies and guitar solos by Biel Gayà that remind a little of Megadeth's "Rust in Peace" golden era combined with catchy riffs from the Bay Area's school, combining acute yells with rotten voices, noticing the influence of the current sound of Kreator. Interesting marshes and changes of rhythm, where the drummer Sebas Barceló shines, various technical shades. Catchy, melodic stuff, with Heavy Metal vibe, with memorable backing vocals and slow passages of very good musical taste.
Trallery has a promising career ahead, besides his debut with this exceptional "Catalepsy", they was the Spanish representatives in the of the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany, after winning in their country the "Metal Battle Spain 2013". If you like good classic Thrash Metal, do not miss this album!!

The debut full-length album by Italian Thrash Metal band.
Modern Thrash Metal to the American way, with studied melodies and Groove to burn.
The band was born in 2008 and create an original and personal sound that they called “Stun Metal”.
Tony De Marco utilizes a fairly harsh vocal style, somewhere in between the typical Thrash vocals and a Death growl, but not quite one or the other. On a couple of songs (most notably the opener), he makes a sort of grunt sound at the end of sentences, similar to what Disturbed frontman David Draiman often does, which adds a bit of fun and energy. He even does clean vocals once in a while, and he’s surprisingly good at them.
The album was welcomed with great enthusiasm by most critics in the European Metal industry and declared as one of the best Metal albums of 2012.
New take on Thrash Metal with aggressive duality to the vocals, some blast beats and some serious Groove. Those who enjoy this slower, more crushing kind of Thrash Metal could find some enjoyment here!
