Justice is done. This gem of US Epic / Progressive Metal that was originally released back in 1992 as cassette album
Not long after the huge success of ‘Allegiance’, Firewind return with an outstanding follow up album. ‘The Premonition’ is nothing but an extraordinary reincarnation of classic metal/rock.

Primal fear is one of the few bands playing Heavy Metal in the traditional way nowadays without being graphic.

Psycroptic – The Inherited Repression
There is an island in the south east end of this world called Australia. In my mind it is known for kangaroos and AC/DC.

Their latest album, “Requiem For The Indifferent” has gained some really good reviews, and Epica are now touring the world for its promotion.
