ALESTORM Black Sails At
Midnight CD/DVD Limited Edition Digi
"The Scottish buccaneers stand ready to capture the wealth of the Seven
Seas by offering a treasure chest of sweeping Scottish Pirate Metal
worthy of any loot-loving corsair. Irresistible growling choruses from
the port side and lively keyboard melodies and heavy metal riffs from
the starboard side form the basis of this highly explosive rum-induced
metal mix. The catchy tales of life on the high seas, including
"Keelhauled" or "The Quest", use authentic instruments (violin, horns)
to give these maritime jewels their final polish. Producer Lasse Lamert
(LSD Studio) has given "Black Sails at Midnight" a unique and powerful
sound, which earned him many a wench and much wealth from Captain
Morgan's personal stash, while James Murphy, known for his outstanding
work with Death and Obituary, took over the mastering responsibilities.
Alestorm have hoisted the black sails...Let the raids begin!" For fans
of Running Wild, Turisas, etc. DVD is is the Live At Wacken Open Air
2008' concert.

ALTAR OF OBLIVION
Tim says "A brand new Epic Heavy Metal band with Doom touches has
emerged from the great Denmark. I received their Demo in 2007 and was
blown away by the potential this band had. Martin
(guitarist/songwriter) has a really unique riffing style that I love.
The riffs are really catchy, heavy, and choppy (for lack of a better
word). When you finally get used to his guitar playing you’ll find out
it’s a signature sound that he developed. The combination of the Epic
styled songwriting with some really subtle Doom-y sections mixed with
the very young, talented, and uniquely distinct Mik on vocals puts this
band to the top of the Epic Heavy/Doom metal scene. If you liked the
demo at all (by the way “Wrapped In Ruins” is again featured on this
new album) the new album is definitely were you would have wanted the
band to be by this time because the songwriting has exceeded the
expectation. This album is a full-on conceptual, emotional trip about
the pain, suffering, and horrors of war. With that in mind, expect
nothing but crushing riffs filled with sorrow, despair, and with
powerful vocals with so much emotion, depending on your mood might
bring a tear to your eye. ALTAR OF OBLIVION are keeping the Epic Doom
torch a flame that was started by the great and well respected bands
like CANDLEMASS, SOLSTICE, SOLITUDE AETURNUS, REVELATION, TROUBLE, etc."

ARGUS Argus
Tim says "With those of you familiar with Butch era PENANCE (USA
Classic Doom), you already know how great his vocals are and those of
you who aren’t will learn soon. ARGUS, a new and hungry band from the
USA are very well versed with the Maryland Doom Metal and Epic Heavy
Metal scene. They released a very well written Demo in 2007 on John
Brenner’s Bland Hand Records as a download. For those of you that loved
the Demo like I did, this is what you would expect their full length to
sound and then some! THE LORD WEIRD SLOUGH FEG fans are going to go
absolutely nuts over this album for the sheer volume of twin axe guitar
shredding alone!! There are a lot of catchy, layered riffs on top of
many hooks and sing a long choruses. On top of all these well-written
Epic songs, there are TROUBLE-eque Doom Metal break downs to die for
feathered throughout the album. Shall I say “instant classic”? That’s
for you to decide. Look for them to release a 10” EP on one of my
favorite labels, The Miskatonic Foundation in the near future as well."

ARTHUR FALCONE’ STARGAZER The
Genesis Of The Prophecy
Primo says "Arthur Falcone has been acclaimed as “one of the BEST
guitarists coming out of Italy” by Japanese, U.S. and German press; his
previous musical experiences have been in Hard-Rock bands like
HALLOWEEN, DEVILS CLAWS, FOXY LADY and LAROXX. Falcone is guitar
teacher at “The House Of Music” in Trieste since years now, and LUCA
TURILLI of Rhapsody-fame has been one of his students!!! Arthur
Falcone’s style has been strongly influenced by 6-strings masters like
Ritchie Blackmore, Michael Schenker, Eddie Van Halen, Yngwie Malmsteen
and Steve Morse as well as bands such as Rainbow, Deep Purple, Loudness
and Rush. Falcone shared the stage with artists like artists like
Deep Purple, John Lawton Band (Uriah Heep), Kiko Louriero, Ian Paice,
Vinnie Moore, Andrea Braido & more. After his first solo-album for
Virtuoso Records, he returns now with an AWESOME new album featuring
-as special guests- great singers like GöRAN EDMAN (Yngwie
Malmsteen, Madison, John Norum, Brazen Abbot, Glory, etc) and TITTA
TANI (DGM, Daemonia, etc), plus well known musicians like Manuel
Staropoli (Rhapsody of Fire) on flute and the keyboard-player Mistheria
(who played with Bruce Dickinson band, Rob Rock and George Bellas) “The
Genesis Of The Prophecy” is a great Hard Rock / Melodic Metal album,
with many neo-classical influences, with a style that might be
described as a mix among Rainbow, early Yngwie Malmsteen’s Rising Force
and Symphony X! Great production and a fantastic artwork with a
full-colour 16 pages booklet."

BETOKEN Venom Empire
Primo
says "Venom Empire" is the new and fourth album for these italian
Power-metallers and it will feature 13 powerful tracks, influenced by
the Classic US Power Metal and by bands like Queensryche (Operation
Mindcrime/Empire – era) and Vicious Rumors with some harmonies and
technical guitar-parts that might recall mighty Megadeth. All lead and
backing vocals on the album have been recorded by Antonio Pecere (ex
Sigma, Rapid Fire) and the album has been mixed and mastered by Giulio
Capone (Bejelit). Another jewel of pure unadulterated Power Metal
coming from Italy!"
