    An unknown Chinese label was about to press a complete discography of Fear of God (the Swiss noise band). The band immediately stopped the press of the Cd and sued legal action if such a product was ever released. Seems like if you want to make a bootleg, you shouldn’t even thing about contacting the…

  • NOX (Hol): “Ixaxaar” Cd 2007 Earache

    This is the first time I am VERY disappointed of not having the lyrics for reading together with the promo package I got from the label. Somewhern in the last millennium I drove with my pals in Nefas up in Belgium for a legendary gig they had with Centurian, one of my favorite bands at…

  • GRUMO (Ita): “Karne” Cd-r 2007 s/p [demo]

    Reviewing this demo has been a difficult task I had it spinning several times before formulating a truthful analysis.

    I don’t feel ill at ease saying that Hour of Penance (or Hour of Penanz as they say in Rome) is the best band Italy has spawned in the last couple of years. I could count world-challenging level Death Metal bands on a hand in the last 15 years and this definitely falls among them.…

  • MACHETAZO (spa): “Ultratumba” collection Cd 2007 Living Dead Society

    |I just finished reviewing that cool Haemorrhage collection on Power It Up and now I have another excellent Spanish band doing a similar release. This Cd holds tracks taken from 6 years from Machetazo‘s tormented existance (1998-2004) of Eps and singles. There is not a big advancement between the various tracks that I can perceive,…
