Kamelot may not be the band that everyone is talking about. Their existence has been one of relative obscurity up until now. At least as far as I am concerned. This warrants a closer examination however, considering that it is their seventh studio album.
Having picked up this disc “by accident”, I am sure you can [...]

Freedom Call is back with a new metal creation that will surely please as well as upset a lot of people. Freedom Call is just that kind of band. Too much cheese and cliché for some.
But the songs are usually fun and melodic and usually stick. It’s the trademark of German power metal, and Freedom [...]
The hammer falls again with “Chapter V: Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken”. It’s good to see they haven’t changed much in terms of outward appearance. Still a bit high and mighty. Still doing their true metal thing, they certainly are unbending. The good news is that this albums is more even in composition and on average better [...]
Masterplan is back with a follow-up to their 2003 debut and milestone self-titled album, “Masterplan”. “Aeronautics” is an overall pleasant experience though it can’t quite compare to the debut album. Then again few albums ever will. It is, by many, considered one of the best power metal albums of all time. All in all a [...]
Judas Priest is back and so is Rob Halford. “Angel of Retribution” is easily one of the most anticipated albums of 2005. After all it’s Judas Priest’s first album in 15 years.
After having given it a spin, and even though I can’t count myself as a true Judas Priest fan, I must say I’m very [...]

Just like last year I’m gonna revisit the metal scene and do a retroactive sweep to see what came through and what I might have missed.
And just like last year, I’m using the excellent best of 2003 staff poll over at Metal-Rules.com. I’ve been scouting around a bit and their list is as good as [...]
These guys never seem to give up. Even though their glory days ended some 15 years ago. For some reason I can never really let go. It’s nostalgia again I suppose. Iron Maiden was after all my introduction into metal. And strangely a lot of other genres as well.
Anyway. The new album is out 2003-09-08. [...]
I should really do this every weekend. Too bad I don’t have the time or patience. I browse through a lot of new (and old) music every week and once again there is an album worth promoting. This week I will briefly mention two albums, one new and one old. Both heavy on vocals and [...]
