(7/10) VEGA's new album "Who We Are" is already number four in the band's history and the guys focus again on melodic rock. Their sound is rooted in the 80's when bands like Def Leppard celebrated their biggest success. Vega takes this inspiration, writes...

(9/10) A visit of the "Desire's Magic Theatre" is a inspiring journey through a kaleidoscope of sounds. Rosalie Cunningham, the main person behind Purson, founded the band back in 2011, followed by a debut album called "The Cicle and the Blue Door" in...

(8/10) It's again Frontiers Music that managed to bring together some musicians that are well known in metal, to work on a common album. This time it's a combination of five German guys that are the persons behind Phantom 5. Claus Lessmann, Michael Voss,...

(8/10) The release of a new Flotsam And Jetsam album is always a good moment in time, at least it is again a good moment. I'm fan of the Phoenix, Arizona based quintet since the very early days. As I wrote in a previous album review, it has been two songs...

(8/10) Nothing's second strike is called "Tired of Tomorrow". The band from Philadelphia released their debut "Guilty of Everything" two years ago and I was already at that time impressed by the quality of their songs, something that raised the expectation...

( 8/10) Fans of melodic hardrock will enjoy the feast of a new Sunstorm album that hits you in spring. Joe Lynn Turner and friends will release the fourth longplayer of this AOR outfit, an album that features eleven melodic rock songs that are done really...

(8/10) Myrath is a very interesting band for many reasons. First of all, Myrath comes from Tunesia, a country that is known for many thing, but surely not for metal music. Second of all it's the music itself that is quite fascinating. Myath started with...

(8/10) Obscenity and BK49, that's the musical background of Jens Finger and Bernd Reiners, both sailing under the banner of Slaughterday. The guys from Northern Germany inked a deal with FDA Rekotz and April 29th is the release date of Slaughterhouse's...

(8/10) The title of this album couldn't be chosen much better. "Volume Rock" describes exactly what you get with this longplayer. Valley Of The Sun releases with "Volume Rock" an album that hits bulls eye. The guys from Cincinatti, Ohio push the pedal...

(9/10) Imagine a valley, covered in grey fog and mist. Some of the mountain tops stick out their head, unveiling their beauty by being lighted by first sunrays. OK, this is maybe a weird beginning of a review, but anyhow, in one or another way it reflects...

(7/10) The segment of bombastic female fronted metal bands gets tighter and tighter. What started decades ago with The Gathering, Within Temptation and Nightwish inspired many other groups and one of them is Visions Of Atlantis from Austria. Founded in...

(8/10) There is definitely nothing wrong with Wrong. Not at all. I must say that I was really impressed after I had my first round through the band's debut album. The label info mentioned that the guys sound like a mixture of the early Helmet and Unsane....

Music is, first of all, about sound; something rather for your ears than for your eyes. But I guess we all made the experience earlier about the importance of the artwork. Each of you that was part of the journey from vinyl to CD to mp3 knows about the...
