…motional multi-octave pipes with the right passion, aggression, and attitude against the music that reminds this scribe of Jake E. Lee-era Ozzy Osbourne, Metal Church, and a bit of Primal Fear. Warning Sign has all the skills, knowledge, abilities, and professionalism when it comes to the production, packaging, and performances to rival their mentors. An ideal band for those who love 1980’s/early 1990’s heavy/power metal from North American as wel…

…an play to some effective diversity as well as use clean vocals without it coming across as too poppy. Litterbox Massacre – Primal Apawcalypse Admittedly, the muscular cat vs. dog cover art is what drew me into this one. It looked over the top, complete with cat-pun, so it seemed worth a shot. The puns continue with the titles for each track, but the music itself is some pretty serious brutal death metal. Not goofy in the least, it roars with low…
…Sadistic Embodiment – Blood Spell (CDN Records) After three previous EPs, Canada’s Sadistic Embodiment comes out swinging on their full-length debut. Pure and unadulterated death metal is at hand in the band’s assault, but don’t expect it to dull your senses as it continues. There’s a number of dark melodies that weave their way into the sound and craft some catchy moments that keep it brutal but still quite memorable. Not to mention some heavy g…
…th, I listen to their album and they sound fantastic. I know Goldenhall is coming up with an album soon, I’m really looking forward to that and hopefully playing with them at some point. On a local level it’s going really well. I can’t comment as much on the global scene since I’m not really as much a part of it. Maybe there is room for one of these local bands to get out into a global spotlight. The scene didn’t feel like it did eight years ago w…

Nick: And this was after I got pulled away for all the Dee stuff… Bijan: And I had a family reunion in the middle of it, and they would ask how my band is and I said, I don’t know (laughs). This might be the best thing that’s ever happened, or I don’t have a band. I d…

But my main passion has always been music, so I tried to form a new band in Canada and hopefully get some success. Dead Rhetoric: Aeternam started in 2007 – what can you tell us about the early beginnings of the band, and did you know straight away the type of elements you wanted to bring together in terms of the songwrit…

Really not much to complain about for extreme metal fans with this one. – Kyle McGinn (Embodiment on Facebook) Grand Massive – 4 (Metalville) Technically, 4 is not Grand Massive’s fourth studio album — it’s their fourth overall release. Factoids aside, this German troupe sports long-and-lean sludge and stoner metal in the Corrosion of Conformity, Fu Manchu and Kyuss vein. There are minor pang…

…a love of Jeff Waters, Dave Mustaine, and even acts like Carcass or Sodom come into the forefront, adequate shifting up and down the tempo scale while injecting the proper neoclassical twists or harmony tricks. Building up specific musical moments with layers of atmosphere, the title track for instance is a standout as singer Angelo Bonaccorso uses his measured blackened raspy delivery to match the lurking riffs before the pace reaches mid-tempo…
…nything,” the title track, and “Bed of Nails” delivering up just the right combination of catchy and heavy, even with a more commercial vibe underneath it. Not bad for the sound (minus “Always”), but unfortunately doesn’t do much to stand out from the rest of these types of acts either. – Kyle McGinn (Ravenscroft on Facebook) Roadrash – Roadrash (Metal Assault Records) Hailing from Vancouver, Canada, Roadrash are a quartet that live for primal spe…

Nevertheless, there comes a point whereby opportunities and exploitation becomes blurred – you HAVE to go into any arrangement or discussion with your eyes open and your armour in place. Sure, there will be a lot of talk about creativity, ‘the fans’, all that sort of stuff – however, if you have a semblance of an audience and you truly believe in what you are doing, it’s imperative you stand u…

…Taken as a whole, the music on Age of Excuse is one of refinement. This is Mgła and you won’t mistake what you hear for anyone else. To discuss individual tracks would largely run counter to the experience so there will be mostly none of that here. However, though it’s rare I pay much mind to the lyrical content in the music I indulge there is a lyrical passage in closer “Age of Excuse VI” that stands out, both because of how it factors structural…
