“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
Right, chaps, seeing as I will soon be on summer vacation, let us try to class things up a little around here. I was scrolling across TEH YOOTOOBZ earlier today, when a rather curious video popped into my recommended viewing list. After listening to it for a little...
The latest POWERWOLF album dropped at the end of last week, and of course, I jumped on it pretty much immediately. Having listened to it pretty much continuously for the past week or so, I have to say, it is – to use the highly technical term – SUPER AMAZEBALLS...
Canadians do not get much love around here, and with pretty good reason. When I lived in the FUSA, all the Americans I knew, essentially looked at Canuckistanis as the effete, probably gay, far too polite, French-speaking, very confused cousins of the Free and the...
Surprisingly, this year I did not listen to much by way of really new heavy metal – nor did I listen to all that many metal albums. But the ones I DID listen to, were in many cases really damn good. Here are the top albums I heard in 2023. 1. VISION DENIED...
It is Christmas Eve – or, as my Russian Orthodox brethren would call today, “yet another Sunday, what’s the big deal, comrade?”. Seeing as this is the case, I think it is worth setting the scene for the day of joy and celebration that follows...
This is the news fans of Bruce “The Dyslexic Voice of Dog” Dickinson’s solo work have been waiting, no joke, TWENTY YEARS to see. He will release his first solo album since Tyranny of Souls early next year, and will go on tour with his solo band as...
It is that time of year again, when the rest of the (Western) world celebrates October 31st with people dressing up like idiots and going to wild parties, while I celebrate by playing the music of the true granddaddies of European power metal: They did rather more...
The Great Heathen Army by AMON AMARTH (4.2/5) Cyan Night Dreams by PARASITE INC. (3.8/5) Curse of the Crystal Coconut by ALESTORM (3.0/5) Seventh Rum of a Seventh Rum by ALESTORM (3.4/5) Warfront by WINDROSE (3.4/5) The War to End All...
This year was a pretty big one for new music, judging by what I saw of various bands that I follow across YouTube, but oddly enough, I didn’t really listen to a whole lot of new metal albums. I tend to be pretty snobbish when it comes to metal, mostly because I...
I don’t spend a whole lot of time looking for redheads, in general. Unlike many of my fair readers, I do not suffer particularly badly from gingervitis. My preferences go to brunettes, blondes, and raven-haired types – as Any Fule Kno who keeps up with the...
