Grave Digger - Exhumation: The Early Years
Released by: Napalm Records
Released on: October 23rd, 2015.
Purchase From Amazon German band GRAVE DIGGER were never a huge act in terms of popularity - even in the metal crazed mid-eighties. What they were though, was an almost perfect example of the basic Teutonic style of that era. Sort of like a barebones ACCEPT sans that band's neoclassical leanings and occasional lashings of pomp. This was meaty and aggressive stuff with crunchy trad riffs and a rough growling vo... -

Killing Joke - Pylon
Released by: Spinefarm Records
Released on: October 23rd, 2015.
Purchase From Amazon It's amazing that Killing Joke have been around since 1978. Formed in London by Jaz Coleman, drummer Paul Ferguson, bass player Martin 'Youth' Glover and guitar player Kevin 'Geordie' Walker they've put out a steady stream of dark, confrontational post-punk/industrial themed albums. There were lineup changes over the years but in 2009 those founding members got... -

Steve Moore - Cub (Soundtrack)
Released by: Relapse Records
Released on: October 16th, 2015.
Purchase From Amazon
One of the coolest aspects of Jonas Govaerts' horror film Cub was the soundtrack from Steve Moore (he of Zombi fame). Moore played every instrument on every song, so it's very much his music but it isn't so far removed from what he does with Zombi that fans of that act won't appreciate it. The opening track, Intro & Credits, immediately... -

Purchase From Amazon Southern Lord are now going to do for San Diego's Battalion Of Saints what they've been doing for Portlands's Poison Idea for a couple of years now - reach into that back catalogue and get some of that stuff back in print, and bring some new music out as well. At this point in the band's history, stretching back well over thirty years, voca... -

Released by: Solar Flare Records
Released on: October 2nd, 2015.
Purchase From Amazon Pigs are a three piece from Brooklyn. Don't let that stop you from giving them a spin though, because good things can and do come out of Brooklyn on a regular basis. Comprised of Dave Curran (from the Unsane) on guitar and vocals, Jim Paradise on drums and Andrew Schneider on bass, these guys make a lot of weird noise. Case in point? The opening track off of th... -

Black Breath - Slaves Beyond Death
Released by: Southern Lord Records
Released on: September 25th, 2015.
Purchase From Amazon Black Breath hail from Seattle. It's rainy and gloomy there, so it's no wonder that the band - made up of Neil McAdams on vocals, Eric Wallace on guitar, Mark Palm also on guitar, Elijah Nelson on bass and the mighty Jamie Bryum on drums - deal in some pretty dark material. Slaves Beyond Death, their third album, keeps that bleak tradi... -

It's been a while, but NYC's own World War IX are back, this time with a new 10†EP and a new lead vocalist, following up 2015's If One Of These Bottles Should Happen To Fall EP.!

FLOTSAM AND JETSAM have been at this since the early 1980s and are probably best remembered for giving bassist Jason Newstead to METALLICA. Their first two records - Doomsday For The Deceiver and No Place For Disgrace are considered classics of the thrash metal genre but like many other acts that started strong on an indie label and wound up on a major label during the thrash signing boom ...05-25-2021, 10:02 AM -

Hot on the heels of his utterly bizarre We Are One collaboration (also reviewed here at RSP!), everyone's favorite Teutonic Metal ogre Herr Udo Dirkschneider returns with that ubiquitous staple - the live album. For a while now it has been common practice for legacy acts, or pretty much any band with a history over 20 years long, to release a live album...03-05-2021, 01:04 AM -

EXPLODING!†Germany's WIZARD have been at this since 1991 and at this point have pretty much nailed this “true metal†thing down to a science. This, the band's 12th full length offers very little in the way of musical surprises and appears to be purposefully designed that way. WIZARD are catering to a very specific demographic - aficionados of gloriously irony-free...01-28-2021, 10:19 AM
