CD

The second re-release of the debut studio mini-album by cult American Technical Death/Thrash Metal band.
Hellwitch was formed in 1984 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Unlike many of their much-lauded peers in the world of Florida metal, Hellwitch’s approach to Thrash and Death metal was decidedly Technical in nature, placing their music in a liminal threshold that defied any rigid genre classification.
Originally released by the legendary (and infamous) Wild Rags Records in 1990, their debut demonstrates the band’s mastery of Brutal Thrash Metal as well as more Progressively-minded and labyrinthine excursions with few parallels outside of perhaps early Atheist. Their dense compositional approach is reflected in the lyrics, with arcane song titles like “Mordrivial Dissemination” confirming that Hellwitch was on a different artistic plane than their Satanic and Lovecraftian colleagues. Their expert musicianship is not merely an exercise in virtuosity; indeed, tracks like “Nosferatu” are blunt and anthemic enough to stand aside the greats of their era while retaining a distinct quality that makes this record remarkable. 
“Syzygial Miscreancy” is a killer hybrid of early Death and Thrash Metal!
Bonus to the album are two soundboard recorded shows, live in Fort Lauderdale, from 2012 and 2013.

European edition of the third full-length album by Italian Symphonic Black Metal band.
Originally known as Immolator and after 3 demos changing their name to Heretical they have been lurking and refining their dark craft since 1993. This album once again shows how the old mixed with the new can be such a brutal and destructive combination. This also is another perfect example of how Symphonic Black Metal can be creative yet devastating. You will hear hints of mid era Marduk in some of the riffing however other then that the band has an approach though not overly original is all their own as they incorporate their own does of occult sounds and ambiance that will bring to mind other Italian greats such as Evol (R.I.P.), Mortuary Drape, Necromass, Opera IX etc...The y even incorporate the old school gang Thrash vocals, some nice lead guitar work, as well as Death Metal influences.There is some violin and piano on a couple of tracks to add to the overall atmosphere to.
A band that has resided for far to long in the deepest pits of the Underground and mostly unknown until now will leave it's mark with this epic modern Black Metal masterpiece! The second coming of Darkness has arrived!!
There is a hidden track #66 (playing time 1:07) in the end of the CD, after 55 tracks of silence (4 seconds each).

Buffalo heavy metal soldiers Herod have released their new E.P. “The Curse of The King” through upstart label Dark Harvest Records. This five song collection (4 originals, 1 cover song) marks the return of the band following a three year hiatus which saw all members travel new musical roads, which somehow all led back to Herod. The group took a different approach for the first time in its nine year history, constructing the songs on the E.P. as a four piece, abandoning the traditional five member formation

Official re-release of the debut full-length album by the Australian Thrash Metal band.
Like most of the modern Thrash acts that are releasing albums, "Walk Through Hell" isn’t an exercise in originality as it establishes an older sound right from the get go. It’s not to the effect of being a ‘retro’ release as there seems to be a certain tendency towards groove styled riffs and a modern blend of vocals, but the heart and soul of the album does lend itself towards an older feeling.
The term ‘groove’ used above probably panicked a few of the fans, but fear not as the band is most definitely a Thrash band through and through with the fast riffing, harsher vocals, and some Punkish drum work to keep up some of the energy.
The intro of “Through Your Eyes” would dispel most detractors with the vicious riffing and this Bay Area inspired Thrash basis forms a good portion of the martial to be found on "Walk Through Hell". The band does careen into some mid tempo 90s style Groove to give some flavor to the album, but most of it never detracted from the Thrash foundations and gives the album so solid push and pull elements to the writing.
There are two distinctive features that Hidden Intent bring to the table on this debut. The first one is three tone style vocals. One portion is a more standard snarling Thrash style that slightly touches on the guttural, one portion is a low end melodic style singing not unlike that of Robb Flynn on early Machine Head records, and the final is the punctuation of some shrill soaring shrieks. The final portion is used mostly for punch, where it works in brief spurts like of the rolling “Betrayed”. The second distinctive feature of "Walk Through Hell" is the impressive bass usage. While it’s not necessarily the most technical bass pieces you’ll have heard from a band, the use of an almost melancholic tone on a few interludes and as a driving force for the rhythm section cannot be understated.
This is a wicked Thrash album with a dash of politiPunk attitude. Each time you'll listen to this your mind will keeps going back to Sacred Reich - it sounds like crossing Sacred Reich with Winterkill and adding a touch of Mekong Delta for good measure. It’s a strong blend of early 90s Groove elements and old school Thrash bursts and it comes off as a rather pleasant surprise and one that Thrashers should keep an eye on! Check it out!!

First compilation album by American Heavy Metal band.
This album is a compilation of demos that were written and recorded from February to July, 2009, in Chicago, USA.
This band perfectly demonstrate the Heavy Metal and Hard Rock picture of the 80s. Band pulls out a sound explicitly influenced and inspired by the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement and so easily travels you twenty years and so back in time.
Parallel to the music, the voice of Chris Black (Pharaoh, Dawnbringer) binds perfectly, creating this way an old-school album full of energy and nostalgic vibes. It is worth mentioning that Chris is the main figure responsible for almost everything you are going to hear. With simplicity as the main characteristic, the result is truly amazing!
It's a solid album with uniformity and character, sweet melodies, fresh vocals and energetic music making it irresistible!

Seventh full-length album by Italian Power Metal band.
Power Metal fans scream: Hallelujah!!! One of the genre's best band returns!
Hailing from Torino, Italy, their debut released in 1999 and 6 full length albums to follow, this band stayed consistent. Having some releases overseas and touring in Europe, Highlord seems to be on top of their game. Production is awesome and hats off to the engineers on this milestone. "The Warning After" has something special in it, finding it is the journey. Solos are great and songwriting is Metal as f*****k with a rollercoaster of compositions!
Total Euro Power Metal excellence from a band wholly committed to the cause!! Also recommend for anyone into Progressive Heavy Metal in vein of Dream Theater or Queensryche!!!

Debut full-length album by the German Heavy Metal band.
These German Metal maniacs are bringing back the glory days of 80?s Teutonic Metal with their fantastic debut album. Very cool underground stuff in style of old Accept, Sinner, Tyran Pace and Noisehunter with the vocal similar to Udo Dirkschneider, includes members of Stormwitch, Saintsbleed and Eternal Darkness.
This German band was formed out the defunct band Hot Wire who recorded a few demos and played some shows in the late 80's and very early 90's before splitting up.  Highway Killer is comprised of only one original Hot Wire member in Ralf “Metal Lion” Neumann and bunch of other veteran Metal performers.
The songwriting on this Heavy Metal album is strong with some very catchy 80's style of melodic Heavy Metal with some Hard Rock influence. Included on this album are 3 actual songs from Hot Wire's 1989 demo as well as modern versions of these songs with Highway Killer's  take on them. Some of the songs were written in late 80s, but never released! Now after 20 years here is the new and improved Highway Killer! 
Accept, Noisehunter, Gravestone, Running Wild and whatever influence you will name from German 80's Metal. Highway Killer play exactly that style and can convince with strong vocals and very fine totally 80s songs!!
CD includes three bonus tracks from Hot Wire's “Demo’89” + one hidden track!

Viking Metal/Neofolk/Ambient from Greece. This is the debut album by Hildr Valkyrie, also involved in the two international folk/viking metal acts Folkearth and Folkodia.
The album ends with Falkenbach and Bathory covers, but for her original music there’s not a whole lot of metal to be found. if you’re a fan of Folkearth, Cruachan, Borknagar and the likes, and want something softer, more melodic and oh-so-symphonic, then this is for you.

Re-release of the third full-length album by the cult American Thrash Metal band.
The band continues in the same vein as previous records, but with a more technical approach... as well as, adding more crunch and heaviness to their music, always forging forward to create a faster and heavier style of their own.
Old school thrash is what Hirax is all about. “The New Age of Terror” should bring you back to the eighties during the time when the Bay area Thrash sound had just started to escalate. Fast, aggressive Metal riffs cover the album, and should get any fan of Thrash an awaking. This Thrash attack has so many enticing riffs the crowd has to go insane in the mosh pits during their shows. The leads get you right into each song and if that still didn’t entice your ears, there are solos that dance all over this album. If you haven’t heard Katon W. De Pena sing before, he has a similar vocal style and power of Paul Baloff of Exodus. That’s probably the only one even close to his style. All of this CD’s elements are Thrash…eleven tracks and a little bit over thirty-seven minutes worth.
"The New Age Of Terror" is a pure, glorious, just-about perfect Thrash album that sounds like it could have been written in the genre's golden era, yet does not sound dated. The songs are catchy and heavy, with a fine balance of groove and speed. Pummeling, epic-power Thrash-attack only Hirax can deliver, this thing just plain kills. Make no comparisons, but it feels like listening to the first Slayer LP for the first time! All the false money makers are dead and gone, and the old demons are here again to rule the world!! Overkill, Testament, Exodus and now Hirax are among the most important. Eleven tracks of the best possible Thrash, powerful and straight to the point, with great and fast guitar leads, not far from Exodus' music, and probably the best Thrash record of the year!!! Killer!!!!

One of the best Polish Black Metal albums!
"The Knight, Death And The Devil" had everything you would like to find on the real Black Metal release: ancient atmosphere, great skills of the musicians (album was recorded with Goolary, axeman of the legendary Polish thrash metal band Hellias) and fantastic epic compositions.
Influences from legendary acts like Bathory, Exorcist or Hellhammer are abvious over here, but of course "The Knight, Death And The Devil" has its own spirit.
