GUEST INVASION: CHRISTOPH GÜTL INTERVIEWS OUR SURVIVAL DEPENDS ON US

Interview: Our Survival Depends On Us Just to shake things up a bit, we’re featuring a guest piece from a man better known to our German-language readers; Christoph Gütl‘s current collaborations include The Legacy and Stormbringer, and he has offered this translated interview with Austrian doom metal band Our Survival Depends On Us. Read on [...]

AMORPHIS – CIRCLE

  As far as band names go, Amorphis is nothing if not an accurate term for the music associated with them. From their crushing death metal origins, past some experimental folk-y metal albums, to their current folky-melodic-metal-with-crunch, the amorphous Finns have always managed to find a way to surprise on each release, for better or [...]

DGM – MOMENTUM

    Aside from a couple of exceptions, metal is not generally known for being an ‘ironic’ genre. However, when it comes to examining DGM‘s latest offering, the entire album is packed with irony; from the influences and execution right down to the band’s name (DGM being Diego, Gianfranco, Maurizio, none of whom have been [...]

BOYSETSFIRE ARE FAR FROM “BLED DRY”

Seminal political post-hardcore band Boysetsfire return from the grave You know those moments where you discover a band just after they split up? That happened to me with US post-hardcore band Boysetsfire. After relentless pestering from a highschool friend, I finally took a chance on their sophomore album After The Eulogy. Considering this album now [...]

HEIMDALL – AENEID

    Coming back from a nine-year gap in releasing albums with a semi-revamped line-up is tough enough, but it seems that power metallers Heimdall have bitten off a little more than they can chew. While the Italian group are no strangers to adapting legends and mythology (the band’s name itself refers to a Norse [...]

THE MONOLITH INTERVIEWS: POSTCARDS FROM ARKHAM

Czech post-rockers Postcards From Arkham drop by for a chat Some bands sound intriguing right from the start. A post-rock band taking heavy influence from esteemed horror/fantasy writer H.P. Lovecraft and including soundbites from his works in their songs quickly made our cultured ears prick up, so we took it upon ourselves to dig deeper [...]

FESTIVAL PREVIEW: DRAGON’S CRY FESTIVAL, VIENNA, AUSTRIA

Get To Grips With Austria’s Dragon’s Cry Festival Festivals are a type of event that once upon a time were reserved to very few happenings – usually huge, rare events that would group together a large number of well-known acts and mix them with some lesser known ones; much like any normal show, but on [...]

BLOOD & BANJOS KICKSTART WITH SONS OF DARKNESS

Blood & Banjos Fuse Bluegrass & Black Metal Together! In the midst of a genre renowned for its secrecy, theatricality and mysticism, one black metal band has decided to go against the grain, allowing fans and curious folk alike a chance to gain a deep insight into the method and madness of the creation of [...]

NOBODY – THE REFLECTION EP

It is a real shame when promising talent is buried under lackluster production, particularly on a début release. It throws the listener off-balance, distracts from the intricate melodies and honed energy present within, and often tarnishes an otherwise pleasant experience. This very phenomenon plagues the début The Reflection EP of Blackpool, UK progressive metal act [...]

LYCOSA – LYCOSA (INNERVENUS MUSIC COLLECTIVE DOUBLE-REVIEW PT.II)

  Lycosa’s début EP is an odd one to describe. If one can imagine a pitcher of beer clad in denim, smoking a joint and still throwing itself around the moshpit giggling, then you’re somewhat scratching the surface. “Sludgy death-thrash” may be a more succinct term – not to ignore the discordant post-hardcore elements – [...]
