Kariti: Dheghom (2024)

Kariti: Dheghom (2024)

Back in 2020 I reviewed the debut album by Kariti, ‘Covered Mirrors’, and she is finally back with the follow-up. Kariti (карити), which means 'to mourn the dead' in church Slavonic, is a Russian-born artist now based in Italy and this release sees her moving away...

Just One Fix: Submit or Death (2024)

Just One Fix: Submit or Death (2024)

One of my favourite NZ metal bands in Just One Fix, and it is way too long since they released an EP. We have been getting tasters with singles, but at least we have six tracks, 26 minutes in length and the only real issue is that it is not enough, where is the album?...

Fiffdimension: Acoustic [Yin] / Electric [Yang] (2023)

Fiffdimension: Acoustic [Yin] / Electric [Yang] (2023)

What we have here is a double CD set from Dave Edwards to celebrate 25 years of Fiffdimension, with one disc acoustic and the other electric, both housed in the same digipak so by turning it over one has the correct artwork and track listing for one style and by...

Dronestool: DeathHawk (2023)

Dronestool: DeathHawk (2023)

Distressed: Nothing For No One (2023)

Here we have the debut album from Finnish quintet Distressed, and anyone expecting something of the melodic rock or progressive genre, given the label they are signed to, are going to be in for something of a surprise. Nick Katona just said to me that the band were...

Miranda Sex Garden: Velventine (2024)

Miranda Sex Garden: Velventine (2024)

To say I was surprised when I was sent this EP by Katharine Blake was something of an understatement as I was under the impression that MSG had broken up years ago. Turns out that is indeed the case, but they reformed for a gig in 2022 and are now set for a full tour....

Lazy Fifty: One Last Time (2024) single

“One Last Time is the third single off Lazy Fifty’s upcoming EP ‘Neighbour of the Beast’ which is a collaboration between Adrian Athy and producer Greg Haver (Manic Street Preachers, Catatonia, The Feelers, Devilskin etc.). On the EP Adrian wrote all the songs, sang...

Aborted: Vault Of Horrors (2024)

Aborted: Vault Of Horrors (2024)

The Belgian death metal act are back with their twelfth album, and they have taken a somewhat unusual approach to this one in that singer Sven de Caluwé, who has been at the helm since the band’s formation in 1995, has brought in some mates to perform with him on each...
