Klaymore - Justifiably Pissed (2014) - Heavy metal done right - 85% (15/03/15)

The young heavy metal quartet Klaymore from Penssylvania claims to be justifiably pissed. Apart of the off-puttingly boring cover artwork, there is no reason for them to be unnecessarily frustrated because their new EP is convincingly great. The band...

Twisted Sister - A Twisted Christmas (2006) - A relief for rock and metal fans around Christmas - 60% (30/12/14)
