After their debut EP in 2010 which received great feedback and a strong reputation that the band has build around its name from their live performances Deceit is ready to release their first full length album with the title "Nine".
Their sound is a mix of catchy melodies, cool riffs with an early 90's alternative rock sound. I think that this band have must grown up with bands such as Foo Fighters and Alice In Chains to name a few. Most of the songs here are solid with strong arrangements and very good performances. This band has plenty of talent and that's a thing reflects to their music. "First Father" is Deceit's first video-clip and it's about a very good modern rock song with powerfull performances and attitude. A good sample of what this band is capable to offer! Other highlights here are the 'darker' tune of "Around The World", the aggressive "The Fall" and "Last Song".

Lead singer and guitarist, Dennis Kasten, says: "Our debut was a folk-rock-album marked by an extremely dark view on life. On Phosphor Anthems our perspective on life is still pitch-black - we just took away the folk and added more guitar." He continues: "Phosphor Anthems is a gloomy and noisy rock ´n´ roll album, that will appeal to all lovers of rock ´n´roll".

Angband are a PowerProg Metal band, formed in 2004 in Tehran by Mahyar Dean a classically trained musician and author who is well known in the metal world for writing two books about Death and Testament.

Saved from the Truth is Angband’s third album in a relatively short space of time and you would think they should clearly be in their groove.  Seasons of my Pain starts with a beautiful acoustic intro that shows Dean’s classical roots and promises so much before we’re introduced to a horribly muddy slice of riffs and double bass drumming that lead to some fairly lifeless plodding vocals.  The whole song just feels flat after such a wonderful intro and I’m already fearing what lies ahead for the remainder of the album.  The recording quality of the track, intro aside, is pretty poor with the vocals and drums sounding very empty and flat while the guitar tone is lacking definition.

NOW! From Sweden

They may look like wizard-van hippies, a trio of high school dropouts livin’ the free and easy, but The Brimstone Days are really white suit preachers selling a groovy Sunday sermon. They’re dancing up and down the crowded aisles under an outdoor tent — red-faced, gripped by fever, dripping with sin, clutching their chest — convincing you to forfeit love, money, and testimony for a chance to kiss their hand. This makes the Swedish band’s second full-length, On a Monday Too Early to Tell, a smoky, lascivious, moto-soul show, and if you’re the kind of cat that takes his righteous garage-funk cool and on the rocks with a Scandinavian twist, like The Sewergrooves,
