"They play with death as with other cards ..." The Slaughters

There was a time when I wondered if the French metal scene would finally explode in the face of the world! I think in France we will have to wait a long time! I will not deny that cares a little too much the balls! Yet! Yet in our country there is talent! Many talents just waiting to be known and recognized! Since the time I listen to metal bands French I think it's time to put the record straight. Yes, in France we have a good big sound to our ears of metalheads! This is not Metal Zone that say otherwise ...

After re-issuing the self-titled debut 2009 release as “Svölk 'Em All” in 2011 through Napalm Records, Norway’s own “bear metal” act Svölk has returned for more reefer blazing debauchery with “Nights Under the Round Table.” Now before you go thinking that Svölk is all about fun times getting high, the new album, more so than its predecessor, presents some seriously impressive riffs that catch you "on guard," especially if you have come to know the band. While the album is no trailblazer, it is worth a listen for those that need to satisfy that Sabbath sweet leaf....er, tooth!

NOW!

Formed in 1999, was previously shown SHOEILAGER rather quiet ... Yet the author of a 4 tracks demo (2003) and their first album, Gladiator, released in 2006, with the means at hand, the name was SHOEILAGER ever happened to the ears of your servant is so with this Dark Pact that we discover the Marne, and I must say it would have been a shame to miss such a great achievement this album as the powerful scent Heavy 80's is a success, it is thought in turn to KILLERS, H-BOMB and all these groups made in France that have rocked our youth (I'm talking about a time that less than twenty years may not know!). Everything about this Dark Pact breathes authenticity and sincerity, we feel that these guys are fun and break out to play their music ... Extremely efficient nine compounds presented here are equally unstoppable as each other, ranging from mid-tempo and fast songs ("In The Position", the aptly named "Metal" ...) SHOEILAGER offers us a solid album direct and unadorned that will delight fans of the 80's and the French Metal scene ... Moreover PMFF organization does not make a mistake and invited SHOEILAGER for its fifth edition to be held in Paris in January 2013 ... a good opportunity to see firsthand the good performance of this excellent live album provided.

In 1994, Kosta Bayss founded APVTH in Montreal Canada and recorded the 'Motorcrash' demo later that same year (with R. Chicoine and Doug McIntosh helping out on vocals). Hating the sound of his own voice, Bayss elected Chicoine to do vocals and play bass (up until 2005's 'Resurrection' CD) but would still sing one song per album himself. Chicoine would stay on board as APVTH's singer/bassist until 2006 when friction between the two made continuing impossible. Bayss searched for a new singer, recording new songs and re-recording earlier songs but was not happy with what he found out there, and so it was decided that the only logical course was to do everything himself. The end result was 2010's 'The Goetic Sessions: Gateways to the Necropolis', a collection of old and new songs which varied in styles (as Bayss wrote for various potential new singers). APVTH operates on a budget of $0 and everything is done at no cost. Bayss is currently working on the followup CD, 'The Necropolis' which is set for a 2011 release... .

NOW!

California based duo of Jeff Lane and Jim Nahikian. Jim handles all the percussion and Jeff everything else. Its amazing how these guys are able to channel the sound of 70s classic rock. They've come up with a perfect balance of prog and hard rock. From the band's name you would suspect a Rush influence and its quite apparent. Its obvious these guys spent a lot of time dissecting Farewell To Kings. Lane's vocals are quite similar to Steve Walsh but with a touch of Geddy Lee in the upper registers. Kansas is definitely an influence. I'm not sure I hear the often referenced Iron Maiden and Queen feel but I'm sure its in there somewhere. If someone told you this was a long lost album from 1977 you'd wouldn't give it a second thought. Highly recommended.
