Throwback: “Sleigh Ride” from August Burns Red!

Throwing all the way back to 9th October 2012 and the Solid State Records released album “August Burns Red Presents: Sleddin’ Hill, A Holiday Album” for “Sleigh Ride” on Christmas Day is exactly what we’re doing. Why? Because (a) August Burns Red are the Metalcore Kings of Christmas, the three wise men being upgraded to

Throwback: “The Vatican” from Sepultura!

As Brazilian Metal Gods Sepultura announced they were going to embark on an 18 month long Worldwide farewell tour to celebrate their fortieth anniversary, it only seems right that we should be listening to something from the Derrick Green fronted line up. So to that end we’ve gone back just over a decade to October

Throwback: “Unlike Us” from Hacktivist!

It might seem hard to believe but Milton Keynes DJentlemen Hacktivist have been raging against the system for a decade with their debut self titled EP dropping on the 11th November 2013. That announced the band to an unsuspecting World, the Grime vocals mixed with the odd unclean punch that made their offering stand out

Throwback: “Charon” from Shokran!

While we wait for guitarist and composer Dmitry Demyanenko to recover from an accident that nearly saw the loss of his leg and the follow up to 2019’s critically acclaimed “Ethereal“, which will feature returning vocalist Sergey Raev, we’re heading back to 2014 and “Charon” from the almighty Shokran.

Their first record with Century Media as their label home, it is one that

Throwback: “Condemed To Suffering” by Malevolence!

Celebrating a decade of destruction since the release of their 2013 album “Reign Of Suffering“, we’re rewinding the tape to “Condemned To Misery” from Malevolence to blast away those Monday morning post weekend blues. The Sheffield Shredders have of course been around the World… Well Europe, North America and Australia since then but this is

Throwback: “Sculpting The Locust Deity” by Bacterial Husk!

On a wave of Death Thrash nostalgia created by the arrival of “Anthropogenic Ruin” from Boston Death Thrash brigade Bacterial Husk, we rewind the tape to 14th May 2016. The bands debut album wasn’t even a twinkle in their eye back then as they were working on their debut EP “Agnosia of Omens” and from
