The second full-length studio album by Chilean Thrash Metal band.
“Religion Of Sin” is as it sounds, a straightforward piece of South American machinery with plenty of admiration towards the European and the American Thrash scenes. It's shattering and crushing, tormenting as if it was a part of earlier discography of the Teutonic lords, Kreator, and moderately tasting the oxidized blood irons of Dark Angel, with a fierce type of Thrash Metal, letting their damnation out with sheer force.
It started with the main riffs, heat fuming guitar soloing that burned your skins, and of course the Petrozza like vocals at full stretch, piercing with glory. Nonetheless, it also noticeable that Demencia struggled to step out of the old Kreator-ish dignitary while adjoining a few uneven song assemblies, speed demon passages, and slightly Americanised Thrash Metal riffs. And in general it worked out for them, but it still sounds and walks like a Kreator late 80s release, of course not bad.
Infusing songs in Spanish was a right call in order to secure their South American roots intact, and at least one of them creased with no mercy. The Kreator-ish doctrine within the rhythms and beats, made Demencia to come up with lead guitar efforts that in their benefit stood tall.
It's recommend to be listened by every Metalhead that respects the meaning of moshing and Metal as well as for fans of Destruction, Sodom, Kreator, and Dark Angel!!

The tenth full-length studio album by German Heavy Metal/Hard Rock band.
The tenth album by the hand of these Germans guarantees for something special. From rather Extreme and Dark in the early years of "Allegro Barbaro" and "Love Is All You Need", over crazy circusclowns on "Samurai", "Riders On The Storm" and "Licht", to a mature combination of both on "Moral & Wahnsinn" and "Tief. Tiefer"… What does the arrival of the Red Rider bring along?
So, on their tenth studio album and their twenty-second anniversary, “Die Reiter” take us on some sort of trip throughout the realm of Extreme Metal. Obviously, all these styles are but short fragments, as the true fans expect some real “Reitermania” in each song. This comes in the shape of a blend of Melodic Death Metal and hard Nu-Metal, with an obligatory wink to Rammstein every once in a while. "Hört Mich An" is a good example of this style. In strophes, the pace is high and the tone is hard, while on choruses and intermezzos, the pace somewhat drops in service of a more tranquil and epic atmosphere. Singer Fuchs’s vocals vary from epic and tormented over angry grunting up to cheerfully inciting, but always fizzing with energy. Clean piano is largely replaced by orchestral keyboards, but fortunately they are still present on songs such as "Franz Weiss" and "Ich Nehm Dir Deine Welt".
All in all, this is a typical Reiter-album, which is always a guarantee for some fooleries here and there. The funny little xylophone on "Hört Mich An", ludicrous alien choirs reminding of Devin Townsend Project’s "March Of The Poozers" on "The Great Experience Of Ecstacy", "Die Freiheit Ist Eine Pflicht" and "Ich Nehm Dir Deine Welt", hyperfast or estranging, distorted piano solos…
Lyrically, we can be brief: The Red Rider finally brings doom and apocalypse over the world, so abandon ship!
At the same time, "Der Rote Reiter" is a very mature album. Guitarplay and composition are the best we’ve heard from Die Apokalyptischen Reiter so far. "Folgt Uns" and especially "Herz In Flammen" are in many respects absolute and varied pearls. Catchy, hard, balanced, melancholic, innovative… On their tenth album, Die Reiter offer the best of their genre, with a little treat for anyone as long as it can be heavy and inspiring. You can’t really do any wrong by buying this album!!

Official worldwie release of the second full-length album by Polish Heavy/Power Metal band.
Recorded from March until September 2015, the album consists of 10 tracks in classic Heavy/Power Metal style. Drums were recorded in the renowned Hertz Studio, which works with world's leading Metal bands (Vader, Behemoth, Decapitated), while guitars, bass and vocals were recorded in Dobra 12 Studio, supervised by Piotr Polak. The album was mixed and mastered in Hertz Studio as well.
An interesting bit is definitely the guest appearance of Wojciech Hoffmann from the band Turbo on the title track. The musician, an icon of Polish Rock and Metal scene, played an exceptional solo, which certainly gives the song an additional bite.
"Tears Of The Ages" it's 50 minutes of real Metal music comprising tradition and modernity. Strong but melodic riffs along the lines of the genre classics like Iron Maiden, Saxon and Judas Priest. The sound is modern, powerful and elaborate, carrying the echoes of the pioneers' heirs, such as Primal Fear. Each piece is complemented by a number of juicy solos, and high-pitched melodic vocals are a flagship of this material. If we add fantasy themed and existential lyrics, then we receive a full picture of a varied, feisty and ambitious album!
This is a great album with rapid fire drums and shredding guitar solos that leaves you wanting more!!
Highly recommended for fans of: Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Primal Fear and Helloween!!!

The Maxi-Single from legendary German Hard Rock/Heavy Metal singer Doro Pesch.
The Single impressively cements exactly why Doro owns worldwide status of the Queen of Metal.
With "Love's Gone To Hell", Doro has created another outstanding power ballad, which doesn't only gleam with a great piano intro, heavy guitars and a fantastic melody, but also with tons of emotion and a chorus, which captures your ears and your heart from the word go.
As to be expected for such a special song, Doro has recorded a visually stunning music video for "Love's Gone To Hell". Filmed in superior locations such as the renaissance castle Bückeburg, Doro showcases herself in the video production in some incredibly impressive scenes in a way you've never seen her before.
A six-track Maxi-Single contains three versions of the title cut, the B-side "It Still Hurts" (a duet with Motörhead frontman Ian ‘Lemmy’ Kilmister), and two live tracks ("Rock Till Death" which features Blind Guardian frontman Hansi Kürsch, and "Save My Soul").

The ninth full-length studio solo album by legendary German Heavy Metal singer Doro Pesch.
Since the release of 2002's "Fight", headbangers waited four long years for a follow-up from one of Metal's top female vocalists. But the wait was over by 2006. The recording of the album took a prolonged time, due to Doro Pesch filming the movie "Anuk - Der Weg des Kriegers", starring as 'Meha'. The film was shot in Switzerland in 2005.
"Warrior Soul" is a good classic Hard Rock/Heavy Metal album, that embodies the essence of what Warlock was about until it came to an end; good old fashioned Judas Priest inspired Heavy Metal without all the groove gimmicks. The songs are simple in their presentation, putting forth basic riffs meant to stick in the head, rather than impress with overbearing intrigue. Lead work is tasteful and often short, as has always been the case since the first Warlock album. The production is modernistic, complete with low reverb drums, but relies on keyboards for atmosphere to balance out the drier approach to the traditional instrumentation. The majority of the compositions are mid-tempo songs or ballads. For fans of melodic yet tough '80s-era Metal, "Warrior Soul" is loaded with Metallic goodies!
The album reached position No. 27 on the German Longplay chart.

The first mini-album by American Southern Metal band, project of Phil Anselmo (ex- Pantera vocalist).
Of all the side projects created by former Pantera members, Down has always been the most legitimate. Hellyeah and Damageplan have a fun beeriness to them that’s at times laughable; Superjoint Ritual often felt more of an exercise than a fully-formed project; Kill Devil Hill appears to be standing on its own, but is too larval to claim greatness. Only Down has stood the test of time with their Blackened, Bluesy, swamp-born Southern-fried Doom, but they’re still hit-or-miss; each album has been significantly different than the one before it in ways ranging from refreshing to disappointing. Sure, there were consistent elements to the music, but overall, a new Down album was never a sure-fire success... Until now.
"The Purple EP" is easily the best thing Down have released since their debut album, perhaps the best thing they’ve released period. On the six songs herein, the band has come to a very real, very solid place in their musical evolution in which they finally sound like themselves. Pepper Keenan and Kirk Windstein’s guitars crunch and shuffle with body and determination, painting an aural portrait of the swamp-city of New Orleans with ugly style. Jimmy Bower and newcomer Patrick Bruders (who replaced Rex Brown on bass) provide a booming rhythm section that carries the band’s sound like a deep black cloud, its interior rippling with storm. And finally, there’s Phil, wailing and growling away like some strung-out Bayou banshee with lyrics that are both topical and instinctive, equal parts mind and gut.
“Levitation” enters with a gravelly guitar fade-in that explodes into a raucous, groovy jam, dripping smoke and pitch with each thick, viscous riff; as its title suggests, this is a song to be listened to with a bong rip and a lit candle. “Open Coffins” has a mid-paced rager with a kick-ass sing-along chorus and choppy distortion throughout, while “The Curse Is A Lie” is a drugged-out prayer to some kind of modern Death god, its lyrics expressing a sorrow for the here and now that would break your heart if it wasn’t so disillusioned and calloused. “This Work Is Timeless” is a Zeppelin-y celebration of surviving the Metal life, while nine-minute closer “Misfortune Teller” swings effortlessly from gross and gritty to driving and dynamic.
Down’s choice of purple as this album’s color is a pretty obvious reference to their greatest influence, and their coinage of the color within Metal: "IV - Part I" is obviously the band’s Masters of Reality, a fully-formed but unpolished beast that redefines who they are without forsaking their past.
Released on September 18, 2012, nearly 17 years after their debut album "Nola", "The Purple EP" debut on the Billboard 200 at number 35, number 15 on the Rock Albums chart, number 7 on the Independent Albums chart, and topped the Hard Rock Albums chart all in the week on October 6, 2012. The mini-album peaked at number 57 on the UK Albums Chart.

The eleventh full-length studio album by legendary American Progressive Metal/Rock band.
The band's first recording to feature drummer Mike Mangini following the departure of founding member Mike Portnoy in September 2010. It's understandably among the most anticipated album in their decades-long career. 
"For A Dramatic Turn Of Events", Dream Theater underwent a self-proclaimed musical change, reevaluating and restructuring themselves. The album has drawn stylistic comparisons to two of the band's past albums, "Images And Words" (1992) and "Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory" (1999). Many songs on the album were written with a specific purpose in mind as Petrucci, one of the album's primary composers, felt a sense of responsibility to fans following Portnoy's departure. The album's title was derived from its recurring lyrical themes of dramatic changes in history that have affected people's lives, including contemporary uprisings such as the Libyan Civil War.
The album is a much more keyboard-driven offering, though there is plenty of good old-fashioned Prog Metal here, too. Given its nearly 80-minute length, there is something here for virtually every fan to grab hold of. Singer James LaBrie doesn't indulge his high Metal screech here that often, and prefers to sing plainly - a good thing. Three tracks (“Outcry”, “Breaking All Illusions” and “Lost Not Forgotten”) feature wildly long instrumental segments with more odd time signature changes than you can likely count. Opening track and single "On the Backs of Angels" contains all the Dream Theater trademarks: disciplined drumming, intricate seven-string guitar riffs that grow increasingly more explosive, a Gothic chorale, and John Myung's insistent basslines, which are nearly buried in the mix. Jordan Rudess' keyboards counter Petrucci's guitar and Mangini's drums for dominance and come out on top. That said, the melodic structure of the tune harkens back to band's albums previous to the last decade's.
"Dramatic Turn Of Events" has enough of what makes Dream Theater attractive to make it a necessary purchase for fans!
The album moved 36 000 units in the United States in its debut week, charting at number eight on the US Billboard 200. Burrn! Magazine awarded "A Dramatic Turn Of Events" with their Best Album, Best Front Cover, Best Guitarist, and Best Keyboardist honors. At the 2012 Grammy Awards, "On the Backs of Angels" was nominated for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance, representing the Dream Theater's first-ever Grammy nomination.

The sixth full-length studio album by Russian Progressive Melodic Thrash/Death Metal band.
Symphonic, Melodic, Progressive, Alternative, Thrash, and Melodic Death Metal – everything we can find on the new album of Druknroll.
“… It’s a calm Spring night. I call my beloved grandma to wish her good sleep. I dial her number... and what do I hear? Instead of her answering, I hear infernal crackle of magnificent guitar riffs, horrible buzz of straightforward bass, machinegun-like teeth-grinding drums, disgusting noise under cerebral cortex caused by philosophic keyboards, harrowing howling of “crafted” legendary harsh vocals...
...Only crispy and uncompromised lead-guitars put me back into the spring environment. And, through all this chaos in the telephone I hear the hysterical yelling of my grandma: “What’s up, grandson? Did you eat your pasta?”
This album is recommended for the fans of bands like Children Of Bodom, Soilwork, Mercenary, Degradead, Dark Tranquillity, Svartstorm and In Flames!

The fifth full-length studio album by Russian Progressive Melodic Thrash/Death Metal band.
…You are again in the library – calm atmosphere, favorite books on mathematics, philosophy, astronomy and your brain gradually starts to relax and unbalance… And, suddenly huge Metal Thrash-Death roller levels everything on its way at a furious pace, and only from the cabin the hellish shout of the granny sounds: “Give way!”
It's impossible to solve the hard tangle of high-speed styles: Symphonic, Melodic, Progressive, Alternative, Thrash, Melodic Death Metal! Reinforce-concrete drum and bass mixture is firmly intertwined with powerful guitar passages, aggressive and angry vocal pierces into modern and symphonic keys, and mind-blowing dynamic solos will just unbalance your mind!

Third full-length album by Modern Heavy Metal band from Russia.
“…From the first few seconds you plunge into the atmosphere of a theatre, close your eyes and begin to listen to enchanting C-becar-mijor Symphony, when suddenly a big chandelier breaks away and falls at your head, breaking you with guitar riffs, tooth-crushing speed drums, bass mega parties, symphonic choral arrangements and vocals, ranging from clean to growling!
The whole album is penetrated by hellish mix of high-speed styles – symphonic, melodic, progressive, alternative, but there are a lot of ballads with a lot of acoustics. The lyrics are very emotional, bringing to the boiling point that really “blows the roof”. Quick Thrash Metal pieces organically interlace with the melodic choir choruses and there's your brain explodes, you open your eyes and... theatre sees you out with last notes of a symphony orchestra”.
Material recorded at the Metalhearts Studio. Mixing, mastering and master of special effects made Alex Knip.
The fans of bands such: Children Of Bodom, Soilwork, In Flames, Mercenary, Degradead, Dark Tranquillity, Svartstorm and not only will be interested in this album. There are a lot of serious things in this album, but it produces a very positive general impression using the expense of really fresh and extraordinary style, in one word - the Light Metal!

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary Norwegian Progressive Black/Viking Metal band.
“Mardraum - Beyond the Within” expands on their signature-Blackened sound with haunting Psychedelic atmospheres and cryptic true Metal riffing, all the while keeping things even more aggressive than their past releases. Looking back, it’s easy to see this album as the bridge between the bands past and future. Each song follows a chaotic path held together under the all-encompassing mystical concept, and with song titles in both English and Norwegian, you could tell Enslaved had a tough time deciding to sever the ties with the blunt Viking Metal of old and embrace the new, shackle-free version of the band. In places, it sounds reminiscent of latter day Carcass in its clinical coldness, but the result is an awesome set of crafted Extreme Metal that relies, as much on atmosphere as it does brutality.
Enslaved are one of the shrinking handful of bands on this earth who, along with being founders of their craft, have remained an important, vital force within their musical realm. Having consistently furthered the dynamic structuring and overall quality of the genre for the past decade, their perfected meld of complex harshness and dark, epic beauty has unquestionably carved a permanent home for Enslaved among the true leaders of Black Metal!!

Second full-length album by Ukrainian Melodic Doom/Dark Metal band.
The first official release of Ex Animo is a well-balanced mix of Dark, Doom and Symphonic Metal.
Album features tracks from "Souglass" EP accompanied by the five completely new tracks.
Aggressive, but still melodic sound, dark atmosphere and thoughtful lyrics - it is the result of several years of experiments inspired by the genius of Anathema, Moonspell, The Gathering, Black Sun Aeon, October Tide, Swallow The Sun and Paradise Lost.
Neverday - is the moment when a man will finally be able to throw away the burden of fake and imposed values, listen to his inner self and realize why he came in this world... this is the day that never comes.
Whether you are haunted by the ghosts from the past or suppressed by the fear of the future, you will find a song that echoes in you!

Second full-length album by Ukrainian Melodic Doom/Dark Metal band.
The first official release of Ex Animo is a well-balanced mix of Dark, Doom and Symphonic Metal.
Album features tracks from "Souglass" EP accompanied by the five completely new tracks.
Aggressive, but still melodic sound, dark atmosphere and thoughtful lyrics - it is the result of several years of experiments inspired by the genius of Anathema, Moonspell, The Gathering, Black Sun Aeon, October Tide, Swallow The Sun and Paradise Lost.
Neverday - is the moment when a man will finally be able to throw away the burden of fake and imposed values, listen to his inner self and realize why he came in this world... this is the day that never comes.
Whether you are haunted by the ghosts from the past or suppressed by the fear of the future, you will find a song that echoes in you!
Limited Edition includes Acryl Magnet.
