Fury UK-VR 2011

now/uk/true music

My first exposure to this band was over a year and a half ago when I heard their “Salvation” EP. Largely this their second full length picks up on the general direction of their previous material. Perhaps they even come into their own even more this time around. The band consist of Chris Appleton on lead guitar/ lead vocals, Martin McNee providing the drums and Luke Appleton playing bass/backing vocals. Certainly they were raised on a steady diet of classic metal including the likes Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and Judas Priest as their sound revolves around. That style makes up the basis of their sound although they (more…)

BOMBARD were founded in 1989, broke away but after a few years with no releases. Now the former members Tom Kretzschmer and Ralf Geschke have reactivated the band. And the first release of the force goes by the title “The Bitch Switch Off”.

In October 2002, several musicians – B-movie fans and appropriate aesthetics formed a group with a shocking title Bloodsucking Zombies From Outer Space (BZFOS).

Miss Crazy’s debut album, “Can’t Get Enough“, back in 2007 really rocked my world with it’s attitude and the punchy glam/heavy/sleaze sound. Their music is a great mix of 80’s, early 90’s, heavy rock sound and their influences are from bands such as Def Leppard, AC/DC, Cinderellaand KISS among others. (more…)
