Graveworm – Killing Innocence – Album Review

Artist: Graveworm Album Title: Killing Innocence Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 28 April 2023 I first discovered Graveworm via their 2003 album, ‘Engraved In Black’. I bought it blind and, apart from the odd song here and there, I listen to it very infrequently. In fact, after buying this record, their fourth full-length studio Continue Reading »
Saint Deamon – League Of The Serpent – Album Review

Artist: Saint Deamon Album Title: League Of The Serpent Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 21 April 2023 Here’s a band that I know almost nothing about, other than their name. Saint Deamon, as some of you will probably already know, are a Scandinavian melodic power metal band, comprised of four musicians of Swedish and Continue Reading »
Redemption – I Am The Storm – Album Review

Artist: Redemption Album Title: I Am The Storm Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 17 March 2023 It wasn’t love at first listen when I first heard Redemption. In fact, it wasn’t until album number four, ‘Snowfall On Judgement Day’, released some six years after their self-titled debut saw the light of day, that I Continue Reading »
Dynazty – Final Advent – Album Review

Artist: Dynazty Album Title: Final Advent Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 26 August 2022 Who doesn’t enjoy a good old slab of modern melodic metal every now and again? I sure do, and so, with the sun beating down, and a glass of something cold in hand, it feels like the perfect time to Continue Reading »
Fallen Sanctuary – Terranova – Album Review

Artist: Fallen Sanctuary Album Title: Terranova Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 24 June 2022 On paper, this album should be a home run. I’m a massive fan of Austrian melodic metal band Serenity, in particular the vocal stylings of Georg Neuhauser which are always out of the top drawer. I also found ‘Viridian’, the Continue Reading »
Serious Black – Vengeance Is Mine – Album Review

Artist: Serious Black Album Title: Vengeance Is Mine Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 25 February 2022 This is now the third release from Serious Black that I have reviewed within the pages of manofmuchmetal.com and it is safe to say that the results have been rather varied. 2017’s ‘Magic’ scored highly, as it delivered Continue Reading »
Brainstorm – Wall Of Skulls – Album Review

Artist: Brainstorm Album Title: Wall Of Skulls Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 17 September 2021 The catch-up continues after my three-month hiatus, with the latest release from German power metal band, Brainstorm. Entitled ‘Wall Of Skulls’, this is the thirteenth full-length album from the Heidenheim-based quintet, and it was released midway through September on Continue Reading »
Bloodbound – Creatures Of The Dark Realm – Album Review

Artist: Bloodbound Album Title: Creatures Of The Dark Realm Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 28 May 2021 Sweden’s Bloodbound are another of those bands that has always been at the periphery of my knowledge. I have dipped into their back catalogue from time to time since their formation just after the Millennium, and it’s Continue Reading »
Arion – Vultures Die Alone – Album Review
Artist: Arion Album Title: Vultures Die Alone Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 9 April 2021 Over the past couple of years, it feels as if there have been an abundance of bands that I should dislike, releasing albums that get under my skin. Arion are one of these bands, and their third outing, ‘Vultures Continue Reading »
Metalite – A Virtual World – Album Review
Artist: Metalite Album Title: A Virtual World Label: AFM Records Date of Release: 26 March 2021 Oh, I don’t know, I just don’t know about this album. Regular readers will know that I have a pretty high cheese tolerance when it comes to heavy music. I may like some of the farthest and darkest reaches Continue Reading »
