KREATOR: Live at The Forum, London 28th April

KREATOR
 Live at The Forum, London 28th April
   There are very few bands who can kick the door down of any venue, and start up a riot from the second the first songs intro begins. Kreator are one of those bands. And tonight, London is their battlefield.
   With support from SSS and Xentrix, the crowd is sufficiently ready for the UK's rising stars and tonight's main support, Evile, takes the stage. Evile deliver a strong and crowd exciting set, featuring new material from their upcoming new release, Skull. Live favorites like "Cult" and "Thrasher" see the first flying bodies of the night.
  There is no doubt that everyone in the room tonight is here for one, very good reason. Possibly the greatest band to emerge from Germany in the last two and a half decades, and one of the best Thrash-Metal bands of all time. That reason is Kreator.
   They kick the crowd into a frenzy of flailing limbs and spilled drinks, with the opening song of their set, the superb "Phantom Antichrist". Seeing how this is the tour in support of their newest album by the same name, there are obviously a large volume of tracks from the album. All of course, are met by screams and bellowing roars of approval. Newer tracks such as; "Death To The world", "From Floor Into Fire" and "United In Hate", see circle pits emerge like bullet holes in the crowd.
   Luckily, the set-list incorporates material from Kreator's entire career. Classics such as "Flag Of Hate", "Pleasure To Kill" and "Betrayed", and eaten up by the room of adoring fans, faster than hairspray at a Poison concert. Even the less fast paced "Voices Of The Dead" is met with ravenous applause. 
   It will be a long time before a gig as amazing as this comes up, but if it really is better than Kreator's performance tonight, then it will be well worth the wait.

10/10

BEAST IN BLACK: DARK CONNECTION

  BEAST IN BLACK:  DARK CONNECTION     Bombastic, heavy, wild and fun, Dark Connection is everything that any obliging listener can expect to hear from Finnish whippersnappers Beast In Black.      Saturated with synths, electronics and plenty of twiddling guitars, the album has a very European (or more specifically Scandinavian) Pop vibe, more prevalent here than on Beast In Black's previous efforts. That said, there is no shortage of cracking riffs, slamming drums and impressive vocals.     Kicking off in dramatic fashion, " Blade Runner " offers up an seizure inducing blur of riffs and crazed keys. Sounding like a disco injected Judas Priest, " Bella Donna " is bizzare yet undeniably infectious and catchy. With a great sing-along chorus, crunchy Metallic riffs and an abundance of synths and keys, " Highway To Mars " is another groovy staple. Offering a little more heaviness, " Hardcore " pounds and thunders along like a softer Sabaton, befo

No Nonsense Metal: Top 10 Albums Of 2013!

No Nonsense Metal  Top 10 Albums Of 2013!    2013 has proven to be a monumental year for extreme music. We have witnessed the return of some of the greatest pioneering acts Metal music has ever seen, as well as a succession of future legends solidifying their place within our realms. It is fair to say that 2013 holds some of the best Metal releases of all time, but within it also resides some of the most spectacular misfires ever to insult mortal eardrums. Focusing on the positive aspects of the years releases, here is a round up of 10 albums that 2013 shall truly be remembered for. Undoubtedly, this list of albums will (and should) be fairly predictable, reminding you of the incredible strides extreme music has made within the last year. However, it should also highlight just how much can change within a 365 day stretch, and just how much Metal music can terraform within that time. So lets hope 2014 lives up to the achievements of 2013. Bring on the brutality!  10- MEGADETH:
