Last fall, British metal legends PARADISE LOST exorcised the demons and ghosts of a dreary dry spell without concerts and thrilled the world with their stunning livestream "At The Mill". Today, the band is proud to announce the captured testimony of this special night to be relaeased as live album…

In 2003, Mystic Records issued Just Popped Out/Redneck in Babylon, which contained two complete albums, Just Popped Out from 1980 and Redneck in Babylon from 1981, on a single compact disc.

Die Krupps are fairly unknown in the UK, but this album illustrates why their brand of industrial metal deserves some serious respect…

Along with Front 242, the German group Die Krupps stands as one of the innovators of the subgenre of Euro-rock dubbed body music, a sound characterized by its dense electronic makeup as well as its harsh, visceral execution. Die Krupps came together in 1981 as a duo comprised of vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist, and mouthpiece Jurgen Engler, formerly of the German punk outfit Male, and ex-Propaganda member Ralf Dorper. Over the course of the group's first three records – 1981's Stahlwerksinfonie, 1982's Volle Kraft Voraus, and 1984's Entering the Arena – Die Krupps continued to refine its lyrically bleak, synth-based sound. (A two-record retrospective covering these three LPs, Metalle Maschinen Musik: 91-81 Past Forward, appeared in 1991.)…

Beginning in the early 1970’s and continuing until 1980, this relatively unknown band from Houston managed to record a stunning collection of songs that are the musical expression of the word Chameleon…

Here’s a question: Is it possible for death-doom to be fun? One word describes dying and demise, while the other suggests condemnation through acts of destruction, rack and ruin. While it’s not exactly an upbeat descriptor, it does appear to track for an extreme metal subgenre that takes pride in a morose funeral aesthetic and riffage that feels glacial and lugubrious…

Being a relic off one of the promising Black / Death Metal bands in Brazil, DESDOMINUS, didn’t seem to be a part of the game when multi-instrumentalist, Douglas Martins, decided to start over on his own. Emerging as DEEP MEMORIES, helped to reintroduce some of the key elements and talent that made the early days of DESDOMINUS colorful along with a new vision of extreme Metal…

SYLVAN is releasing its 10th album 'One to Zero' on a lifelong concept of artificial intelligence in an attempt to save the world from humans. Sylvan is the Teutonic metal prog with a voice, melodies, rhythms, epic, sensitivity and a birth since 1998, neo prog between Arena and RPWL, further a little from Pink Floyd, Marillion or Eloy. A variation of keyboards, a melodic guitar, Marco in the voice and surges of adrenaline to give in sophisticated rock art far enough from instrumental flights…

Former Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour is not prolific. Rattle That Lock is only his fourth solo studio album (though it follows his late band's final album, The Endless River, by only ten months). Gilmour recorded some 35 songs for this set, some dating back 18 years. Trimming them to ten couldn't have been easy. Titled for John Milton's second book in Paradise Lost, Rattle That Lock is structured as an informal song cycle to reflect the sometimes random, sometimes weightier thought processes of a typical person in a single day…
