In Silentio Noctis

Finland’s In Silentio Noctis were formed seven years ago, with a debut full length in 2010, called Through Fragments Of Christianity (also via My Kingdom Music). And in the vein of that first full studio release, Disenchanting The Hypocrites continues the path of Symphonic and Obscure Metal.

Black Spiders

Black Spiders are an English rock band from Sheffield, U.K.. The band was formed in early 2008, where hey originally played a few shows under the name 'The Black Spiders'. They released the single :"St. Peter" in December 2008, followed by a small tour.

Skeletonwitch

Two years after the excellent full length Forever Abomination, also released via Prosthetic Records (the review was put on the site, now available via the Archive-tab, on October 30th 2011), the American act Skeletonwitch returns with the fifth effort, entitled Serpents Unleashed, which has duration of, unfortunately, thirty two minutes only (short durations of their albums seem to be standard).

Tyla J. Pallas

Who remembers the Dog’s D’amour, a band founded in 1983 in London, England ?  Even I don’t.  Well, the only constant in Dog’s D’amour lineup Tyla  now releases another solo album under his own name Tyla J. Pallas.

Lita Ford

‘The Bitch is Back ... Live’ is the brand new live album from the queen of hard rock. I was wondering what I was going to hear because she scored her biggest hits in the '80s. Luckily her latest album ‘Living Like A Runaway’ was much better than her comeback album 'Wonderland' (2009). The sound on the album is like it’s live. There is little adjustment to the album, not to the sound and not to the audience (no huge applause).

Hybris

Hybris is a London based technical thrash metal band witch concept started originally in distant 2002, when Federica (Centurions Ghost) made camp in London and started writing riffs for what would have been an all-female metal band. However, finding the right people seemed to be a big issue.

Coronatus

Actually, I have never been that enthusiastic with any of Coronatus’ previous releases. And to be honest, I will not after this album either. With Recreatio Carminis, this German so-called ‘female fronted’ Gothic Metal act brings forty eight minutes of slightly pathetic orchestrations. It’s a collection of bombastic and symphonic Metal-injected Opera-Gothic songs with classical skilled voices, predictable riffs and rhythms, über-catchy melodies and poppy-approachable structures.

Masterplan

Since its beginnings in 2001-2002, Masterplan seems to have had it’s ups and downs.  Founded by former Helloween members Roland Grapow and Uli Kusch who in the beginning were joined with master vocalist Jorn Lande.  A bright future seemed to lay ahead of them, as their first album was highly successful, followed by an equally successfully second album ‘Aeronautics’.

Giuntini Project

I had never heard of Aldo Giuntini or for that matter of the Giuntini Project yet its seems he’s an Italian guitar Wizardand has released three prior Giuntini Project albums between 1993 and 2006.
