KING: Solitaire is my first introduction to Edenbridge, although this is their 7th album since their 2000 debut. What we have here is female-fronted symphonic metal, a sub-genre that seems to have fallen out favour over the past few years, possibly due to the influx of bands following the exact same ...]]></description>

KING: It&#8217;s impossible to listen to  Necronomicon&#8217;s latest album and not draw comparisons to the likes of  Behemoth, Nile and Dimmu Borgir. But Necronomicon are much more than the  sum of those parts. They are certainly their own animal with a ...]]></description>

Release Date: May 13, 2010
Label: Independent
KING: It&#8217;s impossible to explain The Unravelling&#8217;s sound in one sentence. To say it has elements of metal, rock, progressive touches and even an industrial influence that occasionally raises it&#8217;s gritty head doesn&#8217;t even begin to scratch the surface of ...]]></description>

9. Metal Revolution
The problem with most debut albums is that they only gives you a glimpse of what a band could be, but Omega Crom’s Blood, Steel &#38; Fire comes across as a very focused and cultivated effort. This may have something to do with the fact that Omega Crom has been ...]]></description>

When the four member&#8217;s of Obey the Fist headed into Alchemy Recording Studio one November day in 2008, they were quite the optimists.
“We thought we&#8217;d be done in two weeks,” confesses vocalist/guitarist Chris Kreuger, “but it took a hell of a lot longer.”
They recorded the final tracks for their upcoming debut album in December 2009, just over a year from when they laid down the first drum tracks with Alchemy ...]]></description>

“We&#8217;re really big in Germany, you know,” states Dan Houser, bassist for Calgary, Alta. metal quartet Hellrazer. He&#8217;s kidding, but the fact of the matter is, the band does have fans worldwide, thanks to the MySpace universe. With over 24,000 “friends,” Houser cites it as their biggest marketing tool, except when doing “really ballsy things like call up promoters and ...]]></description>

“We&#8217;ve learned to pack bedding, because a lot of times we sleep either in a vehicle or on a floor. We haven&#8217;t made a lot of money on the road, so we have to prepare to just live. And friends are a huge, important things for us, because they usually put us up,” says Marcus Steiner, guitarist and vocalist for Lies From Elysium. The Calgary, ...]]></description>

Calgary hardcore act Stab.Twist.Pull start growing their musical roots in 2007, with vocalist Mike Hoogars joining the group in February 2008. A series of line-up changes plagued the band, even as they were still struggling to find their sound. But that struggle was not in vain.

“We’ve never been that type of band to have some big scheme to write a certain style of music or do anything we could to become these self-indulgent rock stars. It simply began as four guys doing what they love,” explains drummer Nathan Navetto, on Somastate&#8217;s 2006 formation. “It really just started out as us dudes jamming in random basements and a big ol’ woodshop.”
