[commuter review] REVERENCE – The Asthenic Ascension

Lately, I’ll be honest, symphonic metal has kind of fallen by the wayside for me. So when I got into the first track of this album, the first couple of times, I was a bit hesitant. Then, waiting for the train, I had it playing in my ears with a backdrop of Aussie birds. It …

RELEASE REVIEW: White Wizzard – Flying Tigers (Earache)

Classic metal doesn’t come much better than WHITE WIZZARD. Their latest release shores up their already solid reputation. I get excited when I see a release from White Wizzard, and have done ever since their 2009 EP High Speed GTO hit my desk and simultaneously pressed all the right buttons.
