ARKHAM WITCH -Legions of the Deeper Depths CD Metal On Metal 2024

Time is flying by, ain`t it? “Legions…” was released 12 years ago but this album still holds up, no doubt about it. It seems safe to say that ARKHAM WITCH, over the years, has gotten us accustomed to the fact that their music is, if not overly innovative or original, yet it does, […]
EREB ALTOR Blot – Ilt – Taut LP Cyclone Empire 2016

Alas, for a long time, despite my numerous efforts, I hadn’t managed to see EREB ALTOR play live. Finally, at my third attempt, I succeeded in doing so. And to tell you the truth, their show wasamazingly good, indeed. Interestingly, as a rule,apart from their own tracks,the said Swedesperforma number of immortal BATHORY […]
MYSTIC FESTIVAL 2024

Well, well, well…. another edition of Mystic Festival at Stocznia Gdanska, in Gdansk, Poland is over. That was a truly exciting experience. Over the years, the festival itself has expanded considerably, that’s for sure. Some more venues were added, such as vendor booths, a relaxation zone with reclining chairs and food stands. One could literally […]
Black Silesia Open Air Fest VII 14.06 – 16.06.2024

Well, each and every visit to Black Silesia Open Air is utterly exciting, to say the least. I simply got to like this event a lot. Not only because of amazing bands but the very venue too. The wooden fort located in Byczyna, Poland is a perfect venue for festivals like Black Silesia. […]
NEW INTERVIEW NASTY SAVAGE

I am sure that people who are as old as me can still recollect the famous NASTY SAVAGE show which took place at Spodek, Katowice, Poland, back in 1988.

IN AEVUM AGERE- Darkness Then Light CD Metal On Metal 2024

“Darkness Then Light” is IN AEVUM AGERE`s fourth album. What these Italians offer on this full-length recording is top-notch doom metal; just like their other, very original albums are so full of!

SHAYTAN- Chapter One CD Metal On Metal 2023

SHAYTAN hails from Germany. Their debut album is suffused with obscure, classic doom metal. The sound is very filthy and jet-black to the bone with some oriental mysticism peppered here and there. All this makes SHAYTAN`s music appear very majestic…many are of the opinion this genre is sort of over-explored; therefore, to come up […]
STUKA SQUADRON “Zeppelin” album details. CD Metal On Metal 2023

Before I put the cd into my stereo, I wasn’t too sure what to expect from these guys from London, UK. Sure, I was surprised by this album`s crazy concept idea; on the flip side, it took me some time to properly “submerse” into its content and appreciate the fecundity of these songs. Because, […]
