H A W K A I are a hard hitting power trio with an eclectic and detailed sound full of clever hooks and anthemic riffs. These guys work their limbs off in order to produce songs of melancholy, the hard truth and the obvious.

Imagine Thom Yorke hanging out with Cult of Luna, you wouldn’t be a million miles from how Aoria sound. The fact that this record is mixed by Magnus Lindberg (Khome and COL) further emphasises comparability. This Stockholm trio are due to unleash this spellbindingly beautiful debut record on Swedish label Version Studio Records. Originally formed back in 2002, under the name Drive, the group reformed in 2011 with a new name and set about recording ‘The Constant’. Majestically beautiful in their slow building

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.

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,
