The seventh album from French powerhouse, GOJIRA, is almost like the ‘easy listening’ of metal. It is proggier, relatively upbeat, and more mainstream than previous outings but feels like the natural evolution of one of the world’s most skilled bands.
JUDAS PRIEST’s “Jugulator” album is on the Mount Rushmore of good metal albums not appreciated in their time. This week, we explore why and re-review the hall-of-fame act’s first album without Rob Halford.
“Lifeblood” is the second full-length album from BRAND OF SACRIFICE (BOS) and is both a career and genre-defining album. The heaviest of breakdowns combined with elements from many other genres makes this a fun and exciting listen, while never feeling repetitive or stale as the formula of each song varies and keeps you guessing! Nothing short of a masterpiece in the genre and a contender for one of the best heavy albums of the year.
The debut EP from Switzerland’s JUDGE MINOS is so impressive it’s hard to believe “The Keeper of Imbalance” is their first release. Taking influence from power/thrash bands like METAL CHURCH, SLAYER, and ICED EARTH, the group makes a statement on this album. Incredible vocals, precise musicianship and tightly written songs make JUDGE MINOS a group to watch.
