FATAL IMPACT – Esoteria 2012
now
Esoteria album by Fatal Impact metal is scheduled to be released Dec 11, 2012 on the Nadir label. Esoteria CD music contains a single disc. After a few years in search of the perfect line-up, Fatal Impact as we know it was born in 2005. The band hit stages all around Norway with their forceful, pounding, dark yet illuminating music. The solid rhythm section Sondre (drums) and Freddy (session bass guitarist) serves the perfect structure for the melodic and grinding guitar of Per Anders Olsen. With Jørns vocals and guitar in the mix – y

now
Siegen is located in North Rhine-Westphalia, and has about 100,000 inhabitants. Four of them are Steve, Tobi, Felix and Valentin. They form the band BROKEN BLAZE. Just released their debut album “Dose of Self-Destruction” was released.
And what the young Germans are presenting here has what it takes. Alternative rock with a large pinch of psychedelic on a very varied album. The gang of four shows the high school intelligently composed and arranged music.
Janus Experiment – Michelangelo 2012
now/great
One may accuse the band what you want, just do not think they would fear complex projects. Make a historical theme, to make it a psychological interpretation and the whole thing einzuspielen as power metal concept album – respect!
However, it is thus in danger of being measured with considerably large scale.
Ripe – The Eloquence Of Silence 2012
now!!!
I figured that an album warranting a name that deals with expressive measures of silence would actually have something to do with actual stillness. Nonetheless, I forgot that in Metal music, nearly everything is a paradox, silent conundrums you may call it, but no so silent after all as it would seem to be. The Danish RIPE, formed back in 2000, has something going on with the elements of silence but with their powerful Metal doctrine, silence is just a noun written on paper as they blasted through yet another wall with their new

now /from Italy/wow
Rock melodic band The Fire have just released their new album “Supernova”!
In the music world they used to say that the third album for a band is the big one. Nowadays though only few bands survive until their third album, so it would be more correct to consider it the album of the miracle…. The miracle of still finding record labels that want to invest on a new project, the miracle of playing in sold out clubs…

now
From the start, you can stay two things about Australia’s Mechanical Organic: they have vivid imaginations and create some interesting progressive metal. Their fifth release, This Global Hive, Part One, like previous offerings, is a concept album, and a strange one at that. The first sentence from its description gives you a taste: “This Global Hive Part One explores the black awakening, satanic ritual abuse, the creation of satanic super soldiers, multiple personality disorder and demonic mind control program used to ensure the global chaos that beckons.” Can you say ‘conspiracy theory?’
