Amorphis - The Karelian Isthmus (1992) - The signs were already there... - 80% (27/03/11)

Amorphis - The Karelian Isthmus (1992) - The signs were already there... - 80% (27/03/11)

So this is how it all started. Amorphis deliver a very good death metal album with this first strike but there are already signs everywhere to announce us that this band would go further and be able to do something greater in the future. I think that...

Stratovarius - Visions (1997) - A majestic, dark and gripping atmosphere - 84% (27/03/11)

Stratovarius - Visions (1997) - A majestic, dark and gripping atmosphere - 84% (27/03/11)

It’s done. Here comes my last review for the last Stratovarius record that I haven’t analyzed yet and I’m finishing on a very high note as “Visons” is one of the best records this band has ever done even if it doesn’t beat the brilliant and underrated...

Thor - Only The Strong (1985) - Solid heavy metal and two amazing bonus tracks - 83% (26/03/11)

Thor - Only The Strong (1985) - Solid heavy metal and two amazing bonus tracks - 83% (26/03/11)

In my little discovery of the history of Canadian metal music, I lately heard about this band from British Columbia and gave a try to a couple of their albums. "Only the strong" is probably the most energizing record of the band and presents us ten great...

It's time to honour some great bands from the country where I am living right now, the beautiful maple leaf giant Canada and I want to start the discovery with this rather unknown heavy metal act from the early eighties. The music of "Breaker" is heavily...

Stratovarius - Destiny (1998) - The "neither... nor record" - 75% (25/03/11)

Stratovarius is a very difficult band to me. They have released extraordinary albums filled with majestic ideas; they have released good and solid albums, a few mediocre records and also a couple of horribly awful records. If the description inconsistence...

Ария / Aria - Штиль / The Calm (2002) - A highly interesting compilation for true fans - 79% (22/03/11)

This record is probably the most interesting compilation album the Russian metal legend has ever released. First of all, this record includes many bonus tracks from previous singles or special releases that are mostly hard to find. There are new recordings...

In Extremo - Sterneneisen (2011) - At the summit of creativity - 93% (22/03/11)

Three years after the commercial success of "Saengerkrieg", The German Medieval Rock band In Extremo finally released a new album after many acoustic shows, the departure of their drummer and their first own festival in honour of their fifteenth birthday....
