Interview with Moments

Belgian hardcore bruisers Moments are soon to release their latest EP Outlast. If you haven’t heard the band before, then now is a great time to get acquainted with their emotive brand of melodic heaviness.

With a passion and an energy that can’t be denied, Outlast is the kind of short, kick-ass release that you just want more of. Denied, all you can do is play it again and lap up the extremely moreish modern music that they make. The band know how to write a good tune.

Want to know more? You’ve come to the right place. Read on… Continue reading “Interview with Moments”

Interview with Haze of Summer

Haze of Summer’s debut album Znoi is a refreshing take on the current over-saturation of the worldwide black metal scene. This is an album that revels in corrupting black metal’s dark, grim base with lighter, summery moments, all the while staying surprisingly true to the originating style, while also going its own way down post-black metal pathways.

Do you know what? It works a treat, and Znoi is an extremely enjoyable listen.

Intrigued, and wanting to learn more about this enigmatic project, I caught up with the head man behind the band… Continue reading “Interview with Haze of Summer”

Interview with Behind the Sun

Progressive metallers Behind the Sun’s debut release Post Solis has impressed with its diverse portfolio of metal content and generally kick ass material. If you haven’t yet familiarised yourself with the band I heartily suggest you read the below and give Post Solis a spin – it’s well worth it.

Enter the deathless shells… Continue reading “Interview with Behind the Sun”

Interview with Jagged Vision

Jagged Vision’s second album Death Is This World contains 10 tracks of tightly compressed rage and aggression. This is the type of violent metallic hardcore that can strip paint at 100 paces. Heady stuff. It’s also, however, not without its atypical moments; added stoner rock and sludge groove? Yes please. It’s all subsumed into an essentially heavy and nasty piece of work; Jagged Vision have created something quite special on their second album.

So, without further preamble, let’s find out some more… Continue reading “Interview with Jagged Vision”

Interview with Vorzug

Vorzug play ripping death metal that’s worth giving a listen to. They’ve recently released their latest EP Three, so have a listen and learn all about how it came together seemingly quickly and easily…

Interview with Craven Idol

Craven Idol are the real deal. Their latest album The Shackles of Mammon is an absolute scorcher. As with the best of releases; the more you listen to it, the better it gets.

As I said in my review of their latest creation – this is old-school quality with new-school fury and bite. It’s partly this combination that gives Craven Idol such a distinct personality, one that definitely sees them stand out from the hordes.

The very amicable Vrath went into detail about what makes the album so special, and what makes the band tick… Continue reading “Interview with Craven Idol”

Interview with Ghost Season

Greek alternative metallers Ghost Season have produced a strong debut album in Like Stars in a Neon Sky. Full of engaging melodies and more than enough hooks for the listener to get caught on, it’s an album full of passion, aspiration and personality.

So let’s meet Dorian and Helen and find out what makes Ghost Season the band they are… Continue reading “Interview with Ghost Season”

Interview with Woe

Woe’s latest album Hope Attrition hits like a truck and is chock full of so many aggressive riffs you’ll wonder what the Hell has just happened.

Get ready to drown in blast beats and fiery rage. Get ready for Woe… Continue reading “Interview with Woe”

Interview with Palmer

Palmer’s latest album Surrounding the Void is one of those albums that takes you on a journey, and once you’ve been once you definitely want to go again. It’s an album that slots into the post-metal landscape easily, and reminds me of some of the classics from the earlier days of the style.

Intrigued? You should be. Let’s find out a bit more… Continue reading “Interview with Palmer”

Interview with Nova Collective

Nova Collective are one of the more scintillating, exciting examples of progressive music to appear of late. They’re instrumental, but don’t really seem like it, as the music they create is so engaging and thought-provoking that the lack of a singer is barely noticed.

The Further Side is a great example of musicians coming together and producing something they really love. Luckily for the rest of us, they’re about to share it with everyone. Continue reading “Interview with Nova Collective”
