The heavy metal world has produced quite a few legends. But none is like Mat Sinner. So much conviction, lifeblood and self-sacrifice, so much pure heavy metal spirit, so much dedication is usually not found bundled in a single person.

Since 1982 he fronts the band named after him, with which he now triumphantly returns in the form of “Brotherhood”: a massive album, whose title is as self-explanatory as the mission of its creator. Self-produced and mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen (VOLBEAT, among others), it is a record that carries the band’s internal brotherhood under its heart as much as the br

Charlie Griffiths, guitarist for British Progressive Metal band Haken, proudly presents his debut solo album ‘Tiktaalika’. With musical roots still firmly in the progressive realm, Charlie draws from his love of old-school 80s thrash, 90s tech-metal and alternative rock.

“The God Machine” marks another pinnacle in Blind Guardian’s impressive discography by not attempting to pretend it is still the nineties yet instead successfully relying on the muscle memory of this period.

“The God Machine” represents the heart and soul of Blind Guardian’s timeless metal in the here and now, unifying the bards’ past, present and future secrets in one consistent, well thoug
