Evil Force "Banging On The Pentagram" Review


Hellacious Thrash/Speed Metal from Paragauy, Five Piece Evil Force formed in 2005 and have released alot of splits(with the likes of Pyoveli, Under Assault & Necrolisis),EP's and two full length albums including this one "Banging On The Pentagram".

Evil Force play a brand of Thrash/Speed Metal in the vein of  early Destruction, Venom & Razor. This album is a solid all killer no filler headbanger with alot of quality & stellar musicianship,despite the fact that they pay homage to such legendary bands they are in no way generic or boring, in fact in some aspects they do it better then their peers;standout tracks include Banging on The Pentagram, Southern Armageddon, Toxic Warfare, Under Oracle's Design & Offering To Horus(Instrumental). As a whole the album is extremely good & well worth a listen(or more).

A Full On Thrash Metal Armageddon, Full of great musicianship with a homage to the Old School Style.

Steelballs "Steelballs" Review



Hailing from Beunos Aries, Argentina,this is the debut release form 80's inspired Power/Speed Metal band Steelballs.

this EP has all the hallmarks of classic 80's Power/Speed Metal,highly influenced by legends such as Blind Guardian, Helloween, Accept, Manowar & Grave Digger; Consisting of three original tracks and a cover of the Helloween track Starlight, the EP may be short but sure as hell has all the trademarks of quality Power/Speed Metal,it's really uplifting, fun,anthemic, full of raw energy and personality.

All in all this is a fantastic EP,a full on Leather Clad,Sword Weilding Heavy Metal Attack
KEEP IT TRUE KEEP IT METAL!!!!!!

Stormdeath "Time To Destroy" Review


Sweden has spawned many Legendary Death & Black Metal bands throughout the years but they're not known to be a hotbed for Thrash Metal. Formed in 2008 Stormdeath have released two EP's and this gem of an album Time To Destroy.

Stormdeath  offer a alcohol fueled,destructive, raw & blistering brand of Thrash Metal that's a must for fans of Old School Slayer, Venom, Destruction & Motorhead. every track on offer is very anthemic while also adding that special old school thrash metal vibe. The Most memorable tracks on the album(For me) are We Are The Devils, Time To Destroy, Pay The Price & Accursed,but i'm sure most of the album tracks will be to everyones liking.

In Ending i'm looking forward to hearing more Thrashtastic shenanigans form Stormdeath  in the future and in the meantime i'll blast this slab of quality until their next release.
THRASH TIL DEATH KEEP IT METAL KEEP IT TRUE!!!!!

SpiritBell "Guided By Evil Light" Review


Hailing from Hungary SpiritBell are a traditional Heavy Metal band,the band formed in 2010 during that time the released three demos, then they were on a brief hiatus from 2013 til 2016 and then released this EP.

Opening track The Nameless Soldier is a solid in your face headbanger with strong doom elements and a vocal style somewhat similar to early Accept,this seems to be a running theme throughout the album, i'm not saying this is a bad thing for the band to do,nothing wrong with paying homage to someone as legendary as Udo Dirkschneider; Furthermore this is a pretty solid release with a lot of quality on offer including tracks such as Desert Ghost, The Flying Dutchman, Breath Of The Raven & the added bonus of a cover of the Cirith Ungol track Doomed Planet.

Hopefully the band can get a consistent run of writing newer material as a few of the tracks on this release previously appeared on their demo releases, nonetheless this release is well worth giving a listen as it shows how the bands sound has progressed on each release,
