Barbarian – Viperface (Regressive to the Core but Not a Bore Thrash Metal)

  I like the way these guys play, on two counts. One, the literally playing of the music, and two, the playing with the audience. Not so easy a task when you be playing that retro type of thrash, which can sink into its own past too often and lose the listener in bygone eras, […]

Luzifer – Iron Shackles (German Birthright Heavy Metal)

  Nice. I say this not necessarily because this particular release is the greatest thing ever, but it’s definitely the greatest promo of this week. Man, yet again, I got slammed by some of the most banal submissions ever. Horrid cover art, or music so derivative and stale I thought it was old emails from […]

Children of Technology – Written Destiny (Pay Your Child Support Thrash Punk)

  Yeah I like Motörhead now, but it’s because of Children of Technology. I know, Lemmy had sex with eight kabillion women and that makes him a rawk star because he did it while snorting dishwasher powder and drinking Tide and then had kids he refused to acknowledge unless they soloed on stage with him […]

Warsenal – Feast Your Eyes (Glass in Eyes Thrash Metal)

  Lol holy shit if Velio Josto‘s sick cover doesn’t say “yes you will like this,” then you deserve some glass to the eyes, and ears because you don’t deserve to listen either. I saw some complaints or something about the art but I won’t even bother trashing that drivel. Warsenal are a fifth-edition textbook […]
