\r\nAfter many postponements and delays, latinoamerican Ill Nino’s new album is finally out. Enigma is the band’s fourth full-lenghed release and I think this album will consolidate Ill Nino’s presence on Nu Metal grounds. The reason is simple. All the good elements that the band showed scattered through its albums, are brought together in this one and this time inspiration makes the result even more interesting.

\r\nNice band!! Assailant comes from Sweden and the music that they play is very interesting and combines a lot of different elements. First of all, what initially came in my mind when I heard the track that opens Wicked Dream, was Danish, Raunchy. It is obvious that there are a lot of resemblances with them, but the things are not only going in this way. What we hear has its roots in melodic Death Metal, but it is completed from some Nu Metal (- Core) passages, while it is framed into some Hard Rock/Heavy forms mainly regarding vocals.

IC Rex came from Finland and with their second full length release, "Valonkantajan Alkemia”, they provide us with a very good Symphonic Black Metal release.

After the EP, Released Anger’s new effort is their first full-length album taken straight out of the mid 80’s and heavilly influenced by the leaders of German Thrash Scene, Kreator and Destruction.

Come to My Kingdom” is for sure the absolute expression of what we call Melodic Rock. And if this is heard as an exaggeration, I think that a listening is enough in order to convinces you for that from the very beginning. What expresses the whole album during all its duration, is the melody  not only in musical level, but also in vocals.

It was about time for Canada’s Exciter to have a new release after eight years of silence. First of all the main changes from The “Blood Of Tyrants” album is the replacement of vocalist Jaques Belanger by Kenny Winter and the replacement of the bassist Marc Charron by Rob Cohen. The other two members of the band remain the same.

Charlie Dominici needs no introduction. He is the former Vocalist of US based progressive metal band, Dream Theater (When Day And Dream Unite – 1989).
\r\nDespite this fact, Charles Dominici formed back in 2005 his own band under the name Dominici. With Dominici, Charlie has released two full-length albums. So this is the third and last one of the trilogy “O3 – A Trilogy” and is simply entitled “O3 – A Trilogy Part III

\r\nThis demo release is the first effort of Athenians Inmost Ego, that although has been recorded in the fall of 2006, the band released it one year later. The band according to the info promo sheet, is in search of a label and this period are playing some gigs. But let’s move on to the musical part of it

The third full length from Finland’s Behexen, sounds as the most “mature” release of the band. (Just to refresh your memory Behexen has released two albums in the past: “Rituale Satanum” [2000] and “By the Blessing of Satan” [2004])

\r\nMisanthrope is an old band, come out from depths of French cult scene. In 2008 therefore on behalf of also French Holy Records, they release their new album which brings the title IrremeDIABLE. As always, so and now Misanthrope present us a unique music which has as a base Death and Black Metal but beyond them, has also certain other elements which makes it unique. I believe that the term Avant-garde reflects him absolutely. To be honest, I didn’t like the album for two particular reasons.
