Inanimus Theory is a four-piece metal band from Suffolk that settled into its current guise in the autumn of 2010. 'Unarmed Power' is their recently released debut and the product of a band who "love to try and be creative and are not afraid to bring something new to the table".

The band is made up of Syz on vocals and rhythm guitar, Bidley on lead guitar, bassist Matt and drummer Gibby. With a look to match the aggressive riffs of their music, Syz told us that it is the live performances that the band really live for. "We write our songs with the live show in mind, not the studio. In other words, what you hear on the CD is what you're going to get live. We don't add effects to the album that we can't replicate on stage."

Country: Germany
Genre: Power Metal
Bitrate: 320kbps
Total Size: 173 MB

DAWN OF DESTINY hatten in den letzten Jahren immer wieder Besetzungswechsel zu beklagen, was vor allem die Position an den Drums angeht. Nach Veröffentlichung des letzten Albums "Human Fragility" verließ leider auch die langjährige Sängerin Tanja Maul die Band. Wer nun meint, dass die Jungs rund um Songwriter und Komponist Jens Faber das Ganze ad Acta gelegt haben, der liegt komplett daneben. Mit Jeanette Scherff konnte man eine neue Konstante an den Vocals finden, die auch mit ihrer Performance ein riesiger Gewinn für diese Band ist, so bringt sie doch einiges an Vielfalt mit.

BLACK WIDOW, the ground breaking, occult, orgiastic progressive hard rock group who were banned by the BBC and besieged by religious nutters when they originally emerged in 1970, return to the Sabbat in 2011 with a brand new studio album, Sleeping With Demons, released on October 31st, distributed by Cargo Records.

Sleeping With Demons, which marks a massive return to the black magic roots Black Widow know so well, is packed with anthemic rock songs, huge chants, soaring hooks, and a story line with a host of new black magic stories to tell. Written, performed, and produced by Clive Jones and Geoff Griffith, Sleeping With Demons also features special guests Tony Martin (lead singer with BLACK SABBATH from 1987 to 1997), Kay Garret and Paolo ‘Apollo’ Negri.

4 Sleaze Now...

After working in the music- and entertainment business all their lives, Steven, Kim, Johnny and Joe Sleaze decided that it was time to fully commit to the sleazy, glammy, punky rock n' roll that they had grown up with and that they love. With influences such as Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, AC/DC, Kiss and the Ramones as well as Green Day, Foo Fighters and the Backyard Babies the band focuses on energetic live performances and strong, hooky choruses. On their very first gig they supported Hardcore Superstar and their third gig was at the Sweden Rock Festival! Sleazy Joe released the debut EP "Rock Star" in 2007, and now the fullength live CD/DVD "Close Enough For Rock N' Roll... LIVE!" is finally here

Here's another first for April, Juggernaut is my first experience with Texas metal band All Too Human. It appears that this album has been sometime in the making. We last heard from the band in 2002. The core members remain: Clint Wilson (g), Maurice Taylor (b), and Chris Lucci (d). They've borrowed Gordon Tittsworth from Images of Eden on vocals. (Lucci also plays drums for Images of Eden.)

With one spin I'll admit I was skeptical. Juggernaut is a rather diverse and dark album. To the former, you'll hear a variety of influences informing the prog, including traditional heavy metal, power metal, and modern hard rock. As to the latter, the heaviness unleashed here gives the album a weighty brooding quality. The best pieces are the bookends of the title track and the revamped instrumental Arrythmia, from 2002's Entropy.

Now !From Sweden...

This is blues rock guitarist Sannetorp’s third album. Mats is a really good blues rocker with songs in the vein of Bo Wilson, Gary Moore (the blues era), at times with a southern touch. Sannatorp is a Les Paul guy, so no Hendrix comparisons here. The music is quite classic blues rock with dark and quite depressive lyrics, half in English, half in Swedish. If his guitar playing is quite flawless, the vocals are unfortunately not. The voice is decent, but the English pronunciation makes me cringe, I’m afraid. Even though most blues players have a hard time letting anybody else interpret their lyrics, Mats would really benefit in doing so. It’s actually way better when he sings in Swedish, even though it’s all quite straight ahead with no real bluesy feeling in the vocals. As I said, the guitar playing is way more

Italian rockers Ratzmataz have uploaded the title track from their upcoming debut album 'Global Revolution', due to come out on April 2nd via logic(il)logic Records.
Ratzmataz was founded in April 2006 by the great passion for rock 'n' roll shared by Martino Pighi (drums) and Loris Marchiori (guitar and vocals) over the last ten years. With the addition of Diego Franchini (bass and background vocals), the trio worked hard on song-writing, unwilling to be labeled as a cover band, and the first eight tracks were finished in less than one month.
