The Black Dahlia Murder: Everblack


THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER: EVERBLACK            
   
   In a time where repetition and lack of originality is rife within the Metal music world, it really is life affirming when a genuinely great album comes along.
   Everblack is full to the bursting point with a expansive array of screams and growls from vocalist Trevor Strnad, and the riffs are as merciless as you would have come to expect. In fact songs such as the peculiarly named, "Phantom Limb Masturbation", display some more relentless Thrash infused riffs.
   There is certainly no short supply of the brutal stuff here on Everblack. The Black Dahlia Murder have been rapidly gathering momentum and popularity over the last few years, resulting in a large amount of expectation awaiting the album. Realistically, within the first few seconds of the barbarous opener, "In Hell Is Where She Waits For Me", any trepidation of how the album will sound and how it stands up to previous releases, is completely relinquished.
   "Control", "Into The Everblack" and "Blood Mine", are just a few of the many brilliantly amazing tracks on this album. At the very least, Everblack is a brilliant album. At the very most, Everblack is the bands best album yet. Whether you're a fan of The Black Dahlia Murder or not, this album should find a place in every Metal-Heads collection.

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...

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 Sab...
