Don Mularz: Florida Street (2025)

Massacre: Necrolution (2024)
There is no doubt that Massacre have had a major impact on the death metal scene, with singer Kam Lee credited for inventing the "death growl" first heard on the band’s 1986 demo ‘Aggressive Tyrant’, but over the years the line-up has been quite fluid and the version...

999: Emergency [At The Old Waldorf 1979] (2024)
I was 13 in 1976, so the perfect age to be enthralled by what was going on in the punk scene, and while I was always a metalhead I was intrigued by the energy and enthusiasm of the genre, and when my father told me I was banned from having any punk records in the...

Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band: Still Barking (2024)
What is a review? They may purport to be many things, but at the base all it is, is one person’s (hopefully) objective and informed opinion. We all like different things, and while one person may love Marmite others may well feel it is the most disgusting spread put...

Winterfylleth: The Imperious Horizon (2024)

Atreyu: The Pronoia Sessions (2024)
I first became a fan of Atreyu two decades back with the release of ‘The Curse’, since when they have broken up, reformed, and even lost their original lead singer but Brandon Saller (vocals), Dan Jacobs (guitar), Travis Miguel (guitar), and Porter McKnight (bass)...

Joy Shannon: An Chailleach (2024)
This is the first time I have come across Joy Shannon, who has released multiple albums with her band The Beauty Marks, and to say I am simply blown away is something of a huge understatement. Shannon brings together multiple different styles of folk, from Celtic and...
