PSYCHO CHOKE

'Unraveling Chaos'

7Hard

Greek Groove Thrash/Metalcore outfit Psycho Choke fire up the ballistic assaults with their latest release 'Unraveling Chaos', taking style of music like Bleeding Through and adding Cavalera Conspiracy style music, this quintet celebrate this release with 11 years of existence and with that in mind, they bombard the stereo with fury on all levels, taking the core out of hardcore and replacing it with 'fuck'. Heavy as an anvil, brutal as a mass brawl and musically apt as last night of the proms, Psycho Choke is sure to create 'Unraveling Chaos' amongst the Greek Metal Scene.

CEREKLOTH

'Pandemonium Prayers'

HELLS HEADBANGERS

Denmark has two major exports, bacon and lego... make that three, in 2008 they had their latest metal export in the form of 'Pandemonium Prayers' by Danish Death Metal quintet Cerekloth. Hellbender is one word to describe it, death defying another, but it boils down to insane solo's, ear-bashing vocals and mediocre music, all which combine to create a metal onslaught, an unholy approach to metal, especially when the time comes to give your 'Pandemonium Prayers'.

DEIPHAGO

'Filipino Antichrist'

HELLS HEADBANGERS

Noise, noise, noise, scream, scream, blastbeat, fuck this has gone wrong, what are they doing? If this is Black Metal then im a politician, apart from the visual look which ok is good, the recording is too weak, the vocals are too unnaturally done, blastbeats aren't timed and the guitars are on holiday. Back to the drawing board.

FAR WEST BATTLEFRONT'

'Bridging The Gap'

Australian Melodic Death Metal/Metalcore outfit Far West Battlefront call upon the land down under to shake out some of the heaviest music in the country, the result? A brutal two-track demo massacre in the shape of 'Bridging The Gap', insane drumming with high voltage guitars and a sense to mass murder with the vocals, these burly aussies know how to get rough easily and as they progress further down the road of music, they will find themselves 'Bridging The Gap' between the underground and mainstream Metal scene.

KRISIS

'Death Row'

MUSIC FROM HELL

Honduras' Krisis are a five-piece Death Metal/Grindcore act with vocals that are as clear as the sky during a hurricane, however the band restore faith and hope with some Technical Metal in the composition, it seems the norm with a lot of these Grindcore bands, they just grunt and make no words whatsoever, in contradiction to this, Krisis make it sound catchy and so the diversion is implanted in the album's infrastructure, that with some maniacal drumming concludes one of Honduras' best metal exports, welcome to 'Death Row.

MUERTE POR MIL CORTES

'En El Nombre Del Pánico'

Las Amigos, err-hem. Spanish Death Metallers MPMC (for Pete's sake) deliver their debut album this year with the brutality of 10000 raging bulls in full flight, this is probably the heaviest debut of any Spanish Metal band, not to mention it was released in July so farely recent and unsigned. Singing in their native lingo causes problems for the non-Spanish speakers but as music goes language means nothing. They are not your average Enrique Iglesias nor your typical Eurovision D'Nash but simply a Death Metal quintet skull-smashing their listeners.

TRUSTNO1

'Satan In The Vatican'

TWILIGHT VERTRIEB

Formed in the Alpine land of Austria, Trustno1 features Roland from Darkwell and various other Austrian musicians from which combined they released their debut album this year in May and with it comes ten solid tracks of pure Austrian Death Metal, not your average growling troupe but definitely not the other side of the strudel. Trustno1 are as brutal as the toughest lederhosen on the market, although ironically both the music and leather are as tight as a corset, shame the vocalist wasn't a woman, that would add flair and sexiness to the music, but as hot news came in, we realized it was 'Satan In The Vatican'.
