The world of groove metal is almost always an odd one since I feel that many people don’t give the style enough credit since it almost always feels like a “safe” route for metal since it’s not too fast, not … Continue reading The Black Hounds – Colossus
For the last few years, there have been bands popping up all across the world that sometimes defy classification and just play straight metal. Oftentimes, a band will make a very complex sound that makes it hard to pin down … Continue reading Omega Diatribe – Trinity

If your band isn’t going to do an amazing amount to really set your sound apart from the rest when it comes to the sound itself, then you better be damned sure it’s intriguing to start off with. Otherwise, it’ll … Continue reading Byzantine – The Cicada Tree
