Kemilon are a six-piece band formed in late 2007, that first saw the light of day in Sherbrooke, QC with founding members guitarist Chris Geoffroy and his brother Carl on keyboards. After a few member changes along the way, the band settled on their permanent line-up and recorded their debut album, Twisted Storm, in 2011.
Twisted Storm is produced and recorded by Kemilon guitarist Louis Jacques at Shreds Up Studios in Magog, QC, and the mix was handled by Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood (PERIPHERY, RED SEAS FIRE) under the direction of Louis. The album was mastered by Peter In De Betou at Tailor Made Productions in Spånga, Sweden (AMON AMARTH, DARK TRANQUILLITY, MESHUGGAH, OPETH, etc.) last October.

“Ein” is the debut album of the Norwegian band RUDHIRA that has came to life in 2010. RUDHIRA plays a progressive kind of Dark Metal as stated by them and I have no reason to disagree with that. RUDHIRA in Sanskrit means blood but I didn’t manage to confirm that the band is named because of that. Starting from “Ein”’s cover, it reminds me of Dune but other than that I think it is mediocre. Concerning the record there are six songs that go on for approximately 40 minutes. The songs have lots of tempo changes and structures with blast beats, calm parts, sitars, galloping riffs and even some core elements. The vocals are usually clean but there are occasional Death grunts here and there. The production of the record is appropriate and enhances the overall effort of the band. The compositions have some very nice ideas but there are parts that are dull and have no reason of existence. The clean vocals are not fitting and don’t help the songs as there is no emotion within. I have mixed feelings about this record and I think in the end that the band has nothing fresh to offer. Even the ideas that they borrow could be used better. They should work more on their next release if they want to go further and not be just a local live established band.

2012, Fads and fashions may change on a yearly basis but class is timeless. The Danish boys have been delivering their brand of Progressive Power Metal for twenty years and this ´Best Of` compilation takes us on a journey through the 1990's era of recently restored vocalist D.C. Cooper, an era which arguably saw the band gain their best commercial success and possibly produce their finest work. Remember albums such as CLOWN IN THE MIRROR and MOVING TARGET and not to mention the almighty opus that was PARADOX all represented here. It's easy to forget how big these guys were in the 90's especially in Japan and mainland Europe, with album sales in excess of one million units these guys certainly know what they're doing.

Shock absorber were formed , by George Matikas (guitar,ex-W.A.N.T.E.D., ex- LAST ROUND) and Kostas Tsagaris guitar, ex-SICKS DAZE) at February 2006 . Kostas and George started working on some songs of their own when Antonis Kanaras (drums,ex- LAST ROUND) join the band in July 2006, and right after a month the line up was completed with the addition of Tasos (bass) and Bebis (voice, BULLDOZA, PANX POUTANA). Since they were all fans of bands like Black Sabbath, Pantera, Slayer, Entombed, Crowbar, Candlemass and stuff like that, the material that came out of the rehearsal was very aggressive and heavy. The band kept rehearsing heavily until November 2006 when they got at mix studios to record their promo. The promo recordings was completed at the end of February 2007. After that the band started and playing live in several stages in Thessaloniki and got remarcable critics for their live perfomance. The promo CD was out at May 2 2007 and the band still distributes it for free (besides mailing costs). On january of 2008 the recordings for a the first full length album of SHOCK ABSORBER started at Mix studios in Thessaloniki with Sound Engineer Fotis Demertzis.The album will be constisted from 11 songs and at the moment is being on the stage of mixing. At the same time the band hit a number of stages around greece (Athens,Thessaloniki,Volos,Trikala,Aridaia ..a.m.m)

HEVISAURUS!Now!

"Dinosaurs playing heavy metal to the kids". That was the concept that Mirka Rantanen (drummer of Thunderstone) came up with a few years ago, and HEVISAURUS was born. Two highly successful albums were released under that name, but last year things went sour between Rantanen and the band's label Sony. Lawsuits, dirty dinosaur suits and insults were flying all over the internet and media, and as a result, things are a bit complicated now. There are actually two dinosaur bands now touring and recording in Finland: Sony-owned Hevisaurus which includes the orignal vocalist and production team/songwriters and SAURUXET, Rantanen and the original live band with a new vocalist. Sauruxet were the first to release new material, and apparently the new monicker didn't alienate them from their audience - the band went straight to number two on the Finnish Top 40 chart this week. Without diving any deeper into the waves of controversy (or is it too late already?), let's take a look at the album...

Besides the ordered EP of Caroline, the label Hyena Records has also sent us the latest album of Isäntä Meidän. The album entitled "Toinen Tuleminen" [The Second Coming] represents, logically, the second release of the quintet from Kokkola/Finland. The album cover promises Metal and even though the press release specifies the genre with Heavy Metal and Heavy Rock, in the end it`s rather Power Metal than anything else - and thus it isn`t really my taste. BUT, the opener "Vapise Vanha Valta" has a nice intro, starts in a strong way and the chorus knows how to please even a non-Power Metal fan like me. The guitar sound on the second track "Mies" is intoxicating as well. The dramatic shouts - which are typical for this genre and appear besides "Mies" amongst others on "Mestarin

Candlemass is one of the pioneers of doom metal, releasing one of the seminal albums in the genre back in 1986 with Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. A quarter century later the band has recorded what they say will be their final studio album, Psalms For The Undead. They still plan to play live and be around for their 30th anniversary in a couple of years. If this does end up being their swan song, it is a solid farewell. Reviewer Natalie Zed describes it as "unquestionably the finest of their most recent three releases, the work of seasoned musicians, with experience and craft now in place of raw talent and drive. The album is aware of itself, in the context of classic doom metal, seems to know exactly where it fits."
