CD

The ninth full-length album by Belgian EBM/IDM/Industrial/Ambient band.
It was the band's first studio album in 10 years. Front 242 never allowed the commercial world to embrace them, pulling back from the brink in 1993 with a pair of radical, difficult albums. Since they undoubtedly had little to fear from the mainstream circa 2003, ten years after their last discernible studio album, the trio returned to their vision of detached but hooky Industrial angst with "Pulse".
Some CDs should have the mention "headphones compulsory" as a superficial and careless listening can make you miss the essential. "Pulse" is the perfect example because it needs the greatest attention to detect all the subtleties. For the opening, Front 242 invents a kind of electronic riff, one of those which asserts oneself, with a frantic rhythmic and near trance sounds.
The record begins with "SEQ666," a five-track suite of gritty, hi-res EBM instrumentals - slightly updated, with the help of Cubase, but clearly recognizable and pure joy to fans of mid-'80s classics like "Official Version". Following are a few tracks of thematic Pop ("Together", "Triple X Girlfriend") and an able evocation of the era when Front 242 were the kings of grim, catchy Teutonic angst ("Headhunter", "Tragedy [For You]"). The rest of the record is muddled, taken up by extended, multi-track suites that prove the trio's continued programming prowess but are also as inscrutable as much of the material on their most difficult record (1993's "05:22:09:12 Off").
Similar to the return of Industrial kingpins Ministry a few months earlier, though, "Pulse" sounds like the record Front 242 wanted to make, the type they could make only once the pressure was off. The 74 minutes are dense and varied and Front 242 hasn't chosen the easy way!

The fourth full-length studio album by Russian Atmospheric Black Metal/Ambient band.
First album of conceptual trilogy referred to as Norse Trilogy. It is enough to say that this album is dedicated to Vidar Vaaer and Ildjarn, as to man whose life and art gave a major part of inspiration to Frozen Ocean; so because of such devotion, it is easy to get a clue about the music stored here.
And, of course, a particular place takes work of Cold Graves, who transforms a loose imagination about album into the something perfectly fitted the initial plot, something cold, thorny, evil, Northern and Atmospheric. Total raw anger!!

The eighth official full-length studio album by russian Atmospheric/Dark/Ambient/Drone/Electronic/Space Black Metal band.
The new style was chosen again for this epic work. Space, in which "The Dyson Swarm" floats, is woven of midtempo Electronic gates and pads, polyphonic Dark Metal with Space Atmosphere, Ambient structure and sci-fi background. It is devoted to the place of humanity in space, both close and outer, and merely is like a journey through the cosmos.
From the very Earth and its orbit ("CE-4"), through Solar System to another planets ("HD 85512 b") and to know edge of Universe ("UDFj-39546284"); facing wonderful arrangements of astronomic objects ("Syzygy"), enormous objects of macrostructure ("Sloan Great Wall"), both extraterrestrial ("SHGb02+14a") and human ("The Dyson Swarm") presence in space... 49 minutes an atmospheric journey into the cosmos, for those with an open mind.

The debut full-length studio album by Danish Funeral Doom Metal band.
Influenced by bands such as Fields Of The Nephilim, Sisters Of Mercy, Celtic Frost, Burzum, Ved Buens Ende, Thergothon and Vangelis, the band came up with the album containing inspirations from those different genres and sounds. “Omniversal Existence” is a deep, personal and sublime piece of extreme doom. It is an introspective reflection, that is full of visceral emotion.
The run time makes it a very easy album to listen to in terms of flow and overall presentation, and these two things make it an album with a very high replay value. The overall feel of the album is, of course, depressing but more Gothic and melodic at times than dismal. 
Funeral Chasm have crafted an excellent debut, and any fan of this style of Doom should be just as pleasantly surprised.  This is definitely a band to watch in the coming years!

The debut full-length album by Russia Depressive Black Metal band.
Serious debut from a young band. Interesting varied musical material, executed in Post Black Metal basic style, strong emotional background is unlikely to leave without impression and feelings. Life, loneliness, madness, nihilism, philosophical thoughts, deep gloomy atmosphere of hopelessness, from calm to hysteria
General musical concept of the album is a lingering Atmospheric Black Metal based on melodic guitar lines, overdriven chords and acoustic fingerpicking, alternating with psychedelic atonal inserts typical of DSBM, including dissonant intervals and terrifying hysterical ear-piercing shriek vocals.
The band has successfully achieved a right balance between the high-quality Post Black Metal for the wide range of Black Metal fans and the sense of true Underground Black Metal.
Throughout the album length, the band does not slide into a dim musical chatter and draggy copying of the famous DSBM bands. However, Funeral Oppression feels quite confident about its position among such bands as Shining, Woods of Desolation, Austere, Thy Light, etc.
Highly recommended to all fans of different atmospheric music styles, Post Rock, Post Metal, Post Black Metal, Shoegaze, Atmospheric and Depressive Black Metal!

The fifth full-length album by the cult Norwegian Funeral Doom/Death Metal band.
Funeral has been making dark, mystical Funeral Doom Metal since 1991 and is currently back in the Metal spotlight with “To Mourn is a Virtue”.
"To Mourn Is A Virtue" could become a surprising opening both for fans of the band and those who are interested in the genre. It's the missing link between the classic albums "Tragedies" (1995) and "In Fields Of Pestilent Grief" (2002). The album is based on unreleased demo-recordings, and contains nine previously unreleased tracks recorded between 1996 and 2004, remastered in 2010, almost 15 years after the moment they were initially recorded in the studio.
The album offers a dark path into the mystical emotions of a human being. It combines the slow, thunderous riffs of conventional Doom/Sludge Metal with lyrics of pain, death, self despair and such forth. The musical composition offers the perfect stimuli to an impressionable mind. Its calm, unobtrusive tones suck the listener down to the inner depths of human emotion. 
Funeral, regarded as one of the first bands in the Funeral Doom Metal genre, further evolved to a more Doom/Death Metal approach, now presents a classic Doom Metal record.
A musical masterpiece from the Norwegian Doom Metal pioneers!!

The third full-length album by Fusion/Neo-classical/Progressive Death Metal project of Italian guitarist Gabriele Pala.
A fully instrumental album, apart from the vocals on the bonus track. There are lots of different bits, from lots of different genres.
Gabriele Pala is obviously a very talented musician, especially on the guitar. Taking inspiration from the classic Death Metal bands of the early 90s like Atheist, Cynic, Death and Pestilence, Gabriele Pala began Goldenseed project to experiment with everything not feasible by a band made of humans, in terms of forcefully exaggerated arrangements, speed and complexity. Thanks to the increasing popularity of social networks, Gabriele could get in touch with a lot of musicians around the world and collaborate with them. He appears as guest for some lead work in the debut album of the American band Gone In April, thanks to Chicco Parisi Lalonde (ex- Sadist).
2011 was a really productive year. The time has come to give life to a new Goldenseed episode, a more guitar-centric work entitled “The War Is In My Mind”. Album makes kaleidoscope of styles: Fusion, Progressive, Metal and much more that the guitarist Gabriele Pala mixes in an job accessible despite the melodic and structural complexity.
The last song in album featured guest appearance on vocals by Stian "Culto" Johansen (ex- Mayhem, Con Anima, Shadow Dancers, etc.)!
If you like completely instrumental albums, then you should give this a look!

Second full-length album by Norwegian Power/Speed Metal band.
Norway normally stands for Black Metal of the worst kind. But now and then, more melodic Metal bands from such coutries, where the melodic Metal is active, but noone doesn´t pay attention to it, find a way to present their music. Gaia Epicus have belonged to the scene for years, to the American-German-mix Power Metal scene.
The album consists of 10 Power Metal killer tracks, very heavy and aggressive, but without any hyper-super-fast solos, but with powered, phat doublebasses and the typical guitars.
The choruses bore into your ears. Singer Thomas C. Hansen very varies with his self-containied voice. You nearly could think that there are five different vocalists singing! Very good! Even female vocals can be heard in „Be thy Cross My Victory“. The choirs partly are devastating and when you listen to them, your faceual muscles automatically get out of shape!
Tight and powerful, as well as speedy, not only the music, but also the production! Gaia Epicus are characterized by heaviness and speed!
This second output after the release of the debut album “Satrap” owns a large potential!!
Strongly recommended for fans of Helloween and Gamma Ray!!!

Eighth full-length album by the legendary German Power Metal band.
It is another classic in the band’s catalogue. Gamma Ray present an album that sets forth the quality of early classics, such as "Land Of The Free", and that in terms of speed is not orientating in the dizziness-causing last records. Of course, also on "Majestic" you'll find no slow-paced Metal, either but the balance between fast rhythms and groovy parts is correct and can best be enjoyed in high volume. And that's what the records of this band are made for! Aren't they?

The debut full-length album by Spanish Symphonic/Gothic Death/Black Meta one man band.
The Spanish one man project's debut full length opens with a piano heavy symphonic intro, "A New Creation", comes complete with female vocals, but it is the skillful piano work that immediately catches your ear, the piano continues well into the next track "Shadows of the Past", the song however picks up pace into a full blown Death Metal blast, slows down again and again forays into the realms of Death Metal with Symphonic Black undertones.
It is obvious from the get go that this album is a far cry from your standard one man band. Let's start from the fact that while most Metal albums use the guitar as the main attraction, while Garth Arum use both the guitar and the piano. Classical piano sound on the album is so dominant, rather than the standard synthesizer/keyboards that most Black/Gothic/Doom Metal acts use.
A fantastic composition with very interesting guitar effects, lead female vocals with the piano being dominant on the heavy chorus rather than the slower and more mellow verses making the sound very unusual and original, with electronic effects coming in towards the 3 minute mark. This is the album of a musician, an excellently executed piece of Metal mastery, impressive in its songwriting, the pace changes quickly, the longer compositions never overstay their welcome.
And most importantly, it's original and unusual enough to make anyone have a listen, foraying into several genres, including Symphonic, Black, Death and Doom; It's a fascinating piece of work and truly deserves a perfect score!!

The first re-release of the sixth full-length solo studio album by legendary British guitarist and singer.
His first studio effort after a 1985 trip back to his native Belfast, Northern Ireland, the album contains several songs about Ireland. The album is dedicated to the memory of Moore's close friend and former Thin Lizzy bandmate Phil Lynott, who died on 4 January 1986, with the words "For Philip" on the rear cover.
"Wild Frontier" contains the hit Single "Over the Hills and Far Away", which reached No. 20 in the UK, as well as a cover of the Easybeats' song "Friday on My Mind". The Max Middleton-penned "The Loner" was originally recorded by Cozy Powell for his "Over The Top" album in 1979 (on which Moore performed, albeit not on Powell's recording of "The Loner"). The track was substantially altered by Moore for his own recording, thus he is credited as a co-writer. The song "Crying in the Shadows", which was released as the B-side of the "Over the Hills and Far Away" Single in December 1986 and appears as a bonus track on the CD version of "Wild Frontier", was also recorded by Japanese singer Minako Honda, titled "The Cross (Ai No Jujika)", with Moore on guitar.
Gary Moore was joined by The Chieftains on select tracks from this album.
Remastered re-edition contains three bonus tracks.
