Dutch classic rockers Golden Earring are to release their first studio album in 9 years. The album ‘Tits 'n Ass’ will hit stores on May 11th. With this collection of driving rockers and passionate ballads it's obvious why George Kooymans, Barry Hay, Rinus Gerritsen and Cesar Zuiderwijk are still on top of the Dutch rock scene after 50 years.

After the success of last album in Germany and the United States, the Russiangothic-metal band Dark Princess raises the bar with yet another magnificent album "The World I ve Lost" and exciting new singer Natalia. Symphonic grandeur and gloomy atmosphere intersect with deafening riffs and catchy melodies in a breathtaking, dramatic hymns, and the charismatic singer Natalia, quite possibly, the heat will set many of the recognized stars of the impressive range of voice, which easily takes the octave - the classical soprano, Russian pathos and temperamental rock singer.

As a music reviewer, I am lucky enough to be in a situation where bands, artists and record labels alike actually care about, and want to know what I think if their music. This puts me in a great spot where I am constantly flooded with new music to listen to and get to discover a lot of up and coming talent that most people haven’t heard of yet for one reason or another. Okay, so I get stuck listening to some crappy stuff sometimes, but every now and then I get to hear something really great too. I must admit though, It’s been a long time since I’ve been genuinely excited about hearing a band for the first time. You know that kind of excited when you hear something and you immediately know it’s one of the best things you’ve ever heard? Yeah, well that’s exactly what happened to me when I first listened to TO HIDE HER, the first full-length album release from Melbourne-based art rock group TOE HIDER.
The Scottish heavy metal scene is well known for being heavy as hell – bringing the world some of the finest death metal and grindcore bands around. From Cerebral Bore to Achren the musical calibre from Scottish musicians is superb, and it only seems fitting to introduce who break free of this typical scene and go for a more traditional approach to metal. Presenting Ascension, a melodic power metal band from Aberdeen who has so much flare and style in their music, they give the likes of Power Quest, Freedom Call and Blind Guardian a run for their money. By combining lightning fast guitar riffs, powerful melodies and superb, sing along chorus’s, Ascension have created one of the finest power metal albums of the past ten years with Far Beyond the Stars, and hopefully we will see the eventual rise to power of this Scottish five piece within the next few years!
Hangfire's claim to fame if you will is that former Tigertailz drummer Matt Blakout is a member of the band. Although if you are looking for the type of outrageous glam that Tigertailz are known for you are going to be extremely disappointed with Shoot The Crow. If anything, Hangfire is closer to the post-grunge sound that helped destroy the careers of countless '80s glam bands -- Tigertailz included.
