KREYSKULL – YEAR OF THE OCTOPUS 2012
NOW!!!
Quite funny that such a fervent hater of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe as me gets to review Kreyskull, because the first thing that came to mind upon seeing the band name was… yes sirree ‘By the powers of Gereyskull’ aaarrggghhhh. With something such as that as code of reference I was expecting moronic He-Man like over the top Manowar Masturbatory Metal which has less power than Celine Dion who sinks the Titanic.

FERROMANIC – Precession (2012)
I have to confess that I look a lot at work on the covers, and almost always hit in the music that I find on the disc.
But for everything there is an exception, I’ve noticed a lot in this cover, I returned to notice, but ignored the little big band album and I just discovered, is breathtaking quality of music have achieved with their debut “Precession” .
Skillfully combined the classic Heavy Metal, with a touch of power metal and an amazing speed that make each song, a hymn, simply spectacular.
James Heaton – A Reason to Fall 2012
NOW!Gremmo…
James Heaton has been playing guitar since 1984, inspired at first by Eddie Van Halen and Steve Vai, he later discovered Joe Satriani and finally Jimi Hendrix.
James has a passion for Hendrix’s fuzzface sound as well as an infatuation of cello’s and violins. Combining the two he developed a unique sound that mimics the cellos throaty singing voice and the dirty feel of an overdriven Marshall amp.
A self confessed effects addict, James utilizes all the sounds he can find from slides, to ebows, to guitar synths, even chrome steel guitar picks. All mixed with the haunting melodic minor scales that James so loves.
ENCHANTYA – DARK RISING 2012
NOW!
The history of Portugal’s female-fronted metal band Enchantya is a bit confusing. The promotional material states they have been around since 2004, but then list a back catalog of three albums between 2001 and 2003. What? The material then announces that Dark Rising is their debut album for Massacre Records. Confused?
If I would have known Enchantya included death vocals in their arrangements I probably would not have downloaded the digital promo pack. Nearly every song has moments of this horrible growling. It’s nearly pathetic, some of the worst death metal vocals I’ve ever heard, even as accent. It’s notable in the press material that no credit is given to the person responsible. That’s good as whomever this is should be canned immediately, and the band should think twice about this direction for the vocal arrangements in the future. It simply does not become them.
