An absolute HAILSTORM of heavy power metal, an EPIC album with all the meaning of the word! This is steel, as sharp as it gets - a true undergound gem!
A mightry trio from Belgium playing raw epic heavy metal - you CAN'T miss it if you like Eternal Champion, Megaton Sword and classic giants like Running Wild and Manowar!
Everything you love about 70's influenced heavy rock revival is here! The beat, the vibe, the enregy, the feeling, the sweet Canadian classy style that dominates! Freeways brought out an amazing debut - a gem for the good old sound aficionados.
Absolutely crushing debut! Grozov return after their '20 demo with a nice, thrashy power metal album that sounds VERY promising! Not only riffs but also really interesting ideas in the songwriting, some solid, interesting rhythm-section and ideal vocals!
Absolutely KILLER ep for fans of traditional NWOBHM sound! Coltre bring directly to mind ANGEL WITCH and DIAMOND HEAD and if there’s one US recognizable influence, that is BLUE OYSTER CULT, which makes their deed even greater!
If you’re into honest, unpolished heavy metal, this one will make you more than happy. The album is a fine example of traditional heavy metal with many epic and folklore elements. A really GREAT debut!
Urdôl Ur didn't let us down with their return after their debut, bringing out two lengthy one-song EPs together. Well, I would prefer a full-length album in physical format, but that's another story - musically they deliver blackened dungeon synth full in epicness and it is MAJESTIC!

An ABSOLUTELY amazing prog concept album; flawless, impressive, complex and technically astonishing. A GREAT debut! I only hope it could be released by a record label mainly for better promotion.
Savage Blood's debut, "Downfall" has been a BLAST and thankfully, such is the case with "Wheel of Time" too! This is HEAVY metal uncompromised, flawless and unfailing - one of the best releases in 2023.
