Babylon Fire - Dark Horizons out in November

Heavy metal band Babylon Fire, based in Manchester (UK), are to release their debut full length album "Dark Horizons" on Rocksector Records on 12th November 2012.
 
Built in 2007 on a foundation of Iron Maiden & Black Sabbath, extended into the territories of Stone Sour, Machine Head & Five Finger Death Punch, the band learned, developed & ultimately emerged with a signature sound which has helped them deliver an uncommonly mature & multi-dimensional debut with both hooks & depth.
 

Sicadis - Blood of a Thousand Hearts out now

Kansas City's SICADIS (Si-Kay-Diss) have unleashed their debut full-length, "Blood of a Thousand Hearts", upon the masses.
 
After spending years establishing themselves as Kansas City's premier metal act, SICADIS are poised to break out with a vengeance.
 
The band's tuneful and technically impressive blend aggressive melodic death metal and modern thrash makes for one unforgettable album.
 

Testament - European Tour

Bay Area thrash veterans, TESTAMENT, have announced to tour Europe in support of their most recent release, "Dark Roots Of Earth" in November.
 
Commented guitarist Alex Skolnick: "Our last run in Europe was a blast, with people responding to the new songs as though they're classics. It will be great to return and play a few places we haven't been in a while, such as Austria, Poland and the UK".
 
TESTAMENT over Europe:

Grand Magus - The Hunt

Having been around from more than 15 years… JB (vocals, guitars) & Fox (bass) are faithful to what they love best… and only the drummers seem to come and go while the duo is as solid as a rock. This time the new drummer is Ludwig “Ludde” Witt. Let’s hope he stays with them a lot more than his predecessors.
 

Bullet - new album & tour

On September 14th, the new BULLET record “Full Pull” will be released worldwide on Nuclear Blast Records. 
 
The CD was recorded in “Gutterview Recorders” in Solna/Stockholm, along with Nicke Andersson (Hellacopters a.o.) and Fred Estby (Dismember a.o.).
 
The band announced: “We think this is going to be our best album this far. Expect the hardest rocking Bullet album yet recorded”!
 

Freedom Slaves - Freedom Slaves

Freedom Slaves are are an Italian quintet who began their course as a heavy metal cover band in 2005, while still in school, covering all the classics. A couple of singers and a demo later they met Daniel their current vocalist and begun composing what would become their debut album.
 

Soulfly - Enslaved

I was taken by surprise as soon as I heard (and saw the video) of the first full track of the album, “World Scum”… it was so fuckin’ heavy & brutal that I just couldn’t believe it. I haven’t heard something like this from Max in ages. It’s true that the new Soulfly is more thrash/death metal oriented than any other album before. At times I can’t help but think how amazing a new original Sepultura album would have been like.
 

Gory Blister - Earth-Sick

Gory Blister are coming from Italy and they have been around since the early 90s… but it was only in 2003 when they eventually released their debut album. This is their fourth full-length album, which is being released under a new label.
