Ba'al - Soft Eyes - Album Cover

I vaguely remember Ba’al‘s Ellipsism floating by on the now-defunct Clobber Records in 2020. But – sadly – the time wasn’t right for their enigmatic wares four years back and we gave the record a pass. And, perhaps, we shouldn’t have done that. But then, hindsight is always 20/20, right?

So, the other day, the RMR Deck Crew got ahold of the band’s new EP Soft Eyes. Especially Ba’al‘s insistence on Blackened Post Metal and visions of those funky wares on offer these days got our curiosity going.

Well, Ba’al‘s style is still as enigmatic as … [...] Click to raid more!

The Neptune Power Federation - Let us begin - Video Cover

Well, holy moly. These age-old rock tunes never cease to excite us, now, don’t they? The deliciously musty smell of ’70s and ’80s Hard Rock assaulting our ears. Those recordings hitting early metal without really going there – yet. The high-pitched wails, and fast-moving rock ‘n’ roll on goddam steroids. Or was it LSD? We’ll never quite know.

So, here the Australian outfit The Neptune Power Federation appeared on our radar ready to pervert our youth with some unsuitable children’s books. On a video, no less. Let Us Begin boasts a lusty fast-moving Hard Rock piece that reeks of good … [...] Click to raid more!

Bruce Dickinson - Rain on the Graves - Video Cover

You gotta give it to him. Bruce Dickinson still has energy to spare at the ripe old age of 65 years.1 Apart from his heavy duties at the helm of the mighty Iron Maiden, he’s off to new pastures on his solo endeavor.

So, here he is with his newest video Rain on the Graves siphoned off his solo album The Mandrake Project. Dickinson in priestly garb, no less, on a journey to sell his soul to you-know-who. He might not be the best of all actors out there. But the cinematography is pretty solid, with a … [...] Click to raid more!

Panzerchrist - All Witches Shall Burn - Album Cover

Panzerchrist‘s Last of a Kind kicked up a ton of dust over here in 2023. To the point that all this brutally vile debauchery landed straight on the RMR Top 10 of that very same year. Somber and terrible – as was the Year of the Dark Lord 2023. Now, we got new beginnings and all, and already we’re looking for the real thing. Like that slab of burnin’-hot metal that will soothe our frayed nerves. Looks like 2024 doesn’t bode well – already.

Well, good that PC didn’t comfortably lean back against their black altar, but sent … [...] Click to raid more!
