Elettra Storm - Evertale - Album Cover

After all that galivanting about old records and esoteric undercurrents, it’s time to speed our metal up once more. Power Metal is on the menu, and it’s the Italian kind that took our fancy this time. And methinks they make them en masse over there, furnished ready to go with some built-in stereotypes already blearing. Fast, furious, but also easily recognizable.

Elettra Storm is the band’s name, and their 2024 record, Powerlords, must have sailed right past our review pipe. The act seems to be in a rush, too. They came into being in 2023, and already Evertale, … [...] Click to raid more!

Terra Atlantica - Oceans - Album Cover

The album cover talked to us first. Poseidon, are you calling again? Late in 2024, we had you on a banger of a record. Full trident power on stark display. So, here the Olympian Gawd ov The Sea (and other mischief) reemerges from the North Sea. Or something.

Terra Atlantica are on the prowl again. To our chagrin, steampunk seems to be out the door, and Oceans are their theme with a penchant for pirate lore. A fact we kinda guessed when looking at the cover.

But with moving things into the Pirate Metal realm comes big responsibility. Legion … [...] Click to raid more!

Celestial Wizard - Regenesis - Album Cover

Celestial Wizard‘s 2022 piece, Winds of the Cosmos, never quite convinced us. The RMR crew let ‘er roar out of our mighty music machine. But nada, nothing would stick, or at least not enough to unstick it from the sump of the review pipe.

But here, the band is back with Regenesis, their newest concoction. And already the pulp fiction style, kinda oldish album cover got the better of us. Who can resist some sort of Western-style Grim Reaper on a pale horse in a saguaro-infested1 fantastical Arizona desert setting? Well, yours truly couldn’t. Go find … [...] Click to raid more!

Trick or Treat - Ghosted - Review

Ghosted, huh. I wish it not to ye, fans and friends. It usually means someone – and I quote the mighty Merriam Webster – “…abruptly cutting off all contact with someone usually without explanation.”1 Damn. No doubt the creatures on Trick or Treat‘s newest album cover look kinda worried and mighty lost.

Or, perhaps, it’s some sort of omen of what’s to come here. Because the RMR crew did a lot of headscratching on where these Italians are taking their newest concoction. After all, the band’s last record, Creepy Symphonies, kinda landed on our better side … [...] Click to raid more!
