Re-issues are a hit or miss affair, but Poland’s Metal Mind have generally been spot on with their re-issue catalog (Godgory, Annihilator, Artillery, Atrophy, Believer, Brutality, Defiance just to name a few) but when the source material is as oddball and divisive as the 2002 release from Disharmonic Orchestra, they are a bit hamstrung. I […]

As part of the second tier of melodic death metal in the mid to late 90, Sweden’s Godgory never got the international acclaim or attention of their more energetic peers despite a solid four album catalog from 1996 to 2001. Partly mired in the middle of Nuclear Blast releasing endless mediocre stuff like Agathodaimon, Crematory, […]

Throughout their career they went through name, line-up and style changes, constantly developing their musical formula in every possible way. Metal […]

How often do you meet a band that ties together brilliant songwriting, flawless technique, mad intensity and a thought-provoking lyrical content to boost? When it comes to extreme metal, it’s really difficult to find the complete package. Maybe that’s why “Retaliate” by Misery Index is such an important album. It shows that the impossible is […]

Sinister is perhaps one of the most underrated death metal acts ever to emerge on the 90’s metal scene. In 1988 they begun their quest for metal annihilation, recording several demos and EPs which slowly paved the way for future success. Today, after releasing eight LPs and one DVD, Sinister can proudly stand next to […]

Acid Drinkers are to this day the best and the most spectacular thrash metal band in Poland. During their long and eventful career they played over 500 concerts, including still well remembered gigs at Jarocin festival, Metalmania, Węgorzewo, Przystanek Woodstock or Odjazdy. They supported such metal giants as Deep Purple, Megadeth, Bruce Dickinson, Sepultura, Paradise […]

Metal Mind Productions will release Opprobrium’s newest offering entitled “Mandatory Evac” on 10th November 2008 Europe / 20th January 2009 in USA along […]

They became members of the UK thrash metal and death metal scenes through four albums, three of which were on major labels before finally disbanding in 1993. In 2006, the band announced its reformation. They have an album’s worth of new material, but […]

Metal Mind Productions presents the re-release of fifth studio album from 2000 by Pitchshifter – the British metal/industrial metal band. “Deviant” may be considered their softest album, with some very radio-friendly content. “Microwaved”, “Genius” and “Disposable” include some of the noisy sound parts common in the band’s previous songs, but the “Deviant” sound is completely […]

Withered Beauty -A  hidden gem waiting to be rediscovered!  The modern metal scene holds many secrets, many of them buried so deep they’re impossible to find. But every once in a while one a secret gets revealed and returns back to glory – Withered Beauty is certainly one of those hidden gems waiting to be […]

Back in the 80’s Artillery were one of the biggest European thrash sensations on the scene characterized by intense, energetic riffing and unique vocals of Flemming Ronsdorf, somewhat reminiscent of Slayer and Megadeth from the same era. “Terror Squad”, their second full-length album first released in 1997, is definitely Artillery’s shining moment with lots of […]

Defiance – thrash metal band formed in 1985 by Brad Bowers (guitar), Mike Kaufmann (bass) and Matt Vander Ende (drums) belonged to the San Francisco thrash fraternity of the late 80’s, along with bands like Testament, Exodus or Forbidden.

What happens when a group of people strongly devoted to the death & black metal scene decides to join forces and form a band together? You might say it depends on the people, but when you’re talking about ex-members of the Swedish juggernaut Dissection you can be sure that this newborn formation will deliver some […]

No Return is one of the most original and inspiring modern bands on the French metal scene. Blending traditional 80’s thrash and progressive death metal with futuristic industrial metal, the group delivers a truly phenomenal mixture of power and passion. “Machinery“, the band’s fifth full-length release, remains one of their finest offerings, bringing a heavy […]

For as long as anyone can remember, Las Vegas – known also as ‘Sin City’ – has always been a home to various lounge artists, cabarets and musical shows. Not much room was left for other genres, especially those from the extreme bunch. Nevertheless, four brave men decided to form their band nowhere else but […]

Afflicted debuted when the Swedish metal scene was crawling with Entombed and Unleashed clones, all far from any originality. The Stockholm five-piece had a different approach towards death metal – they offered complex and intriguing music, reaching far beyond the typical Swedish school of metal. Their first and most acclaimed album – Prodigal Sun – […]

The 80’s and early 90’s metal scene was known for being overcrowded with thrash metal acts, one more repetitive than the other. But despite this generic flood, there were a few names back then that gave new meaning to the word “thrash”. One of them was the Louisiana-based Exhorder, a band who had a massive […]

For some bands it’s the place of origin that determines their music, and Brutality is certainly among them. The group hails from Tampa, Florida – the capitol of American death metal. Unfortunately, being overshadowed by death giants like Cannibal Corpse, Obituary and Decide, Brutality never managed to get the proper acclaim for their work. Metal […]

Metal Mind Productions is proud to announce its new signing. Believe, a fantastic art-rock band, is a new addition to the catalogue. The band, created by guitarist Mirek Gil, should be known already by fans of Collage and Satellite. Not only was Mirek a founding member of Collage, but he played with Satellite as well. […]

Hailing from Poland, Delight is yet another name to take a bite of the female-fronted gothic metal cake. And in the light of the recent listening experiences I’ve had with groups of such nature, I couldn’t avoid the emotions of extreme prejudice and skepticism. For the bands benefit I was sure that their third album, […]

Here’s an interesting one, Polish death metal ala Behemoth and Lost Soul, mixed with Nocturnus-like futuristic “spacey” synths. The result isn’t all bad, which is mainly due to the merits of convincing death metal played under all the superfluous keyboards. The mix is a little odd but the synth/death mix never is as engaging or […]

My familiarity with Asgaard extends only back in time to 2001’s Ex Oriente Lux which I picked up on a whim, having never heard the band before. Before I get too deep into my opinions on the new disc, let me say I didn’t look to find their three previous recordings. Some background, then, is […]
