Slayer – Repentless Review
Dear Slayer,
Member 1235 reporting,
I figured I’d write this to you now that the dust has settled a bit and Repentless is finally in circulation. I know that fans’ letters are usually last if at all these days. I know you’re busy and it’s not like I’m one of those “old school fans” who has been listening to you in the 1980’s.
Deadlock NCHC – Reverbnation Demo Review
Deadlock NCHC hails from the rural county of Rutherford in NC. The band has been around for a long time now. I remember seeing them live in the late 90’s. Mostly dormant the last couple years, they have returned to the scene and are stronger than ever. I have many fond memories of watching Deadlock play to their adoring fans.
Coldwar – Pantheist Review
Dublin based band Coldwar are known entity here in Ireland and have landed some heavy weight support slots in there time. I have personally witnessed them go toe to toe with Suffocation and Hail of Bullets and give both bands a run for their money in their home city of Dublin. Home is where they are plied there trade for years and have more than earned a step up to a bigger label and the world stage.

Of Blackest Oceans – Vultures
OF BLACKEST OCEANS are a little different in this regard and their ability to write interesting tunes while still pleasing the moshcore crowd is something that deserves applause….
