Review: Overkill – The Grinding Wheel

It’s fair to say that New Jersey thrash legends Overkill have been on top form in recent years. Their past triple threat of releases - Ironbound, The Electric Age and White Devil Armory - have been heavy and energetic and reminded the world why Overkill hold their rightful place in the upper echelons of thrash … Continue reading Review: Overkill – The Grinding Wheel

Review: Deserted Fear – Dead Shores Rising

I first came across Deserted Fear back when I first joined the jolly team at Moshville. They were one of the first reviews I ever did for the site back in 2014.

When the fateful day came, I whacked it straight … Continue reading Review: Xandria – Theatre Of Dimensions

Review: Kreator – Gods Of Violence

"Holy Cliche Batman! Kreator veröffentlichen ein neues album!" (German readers please let me know if tense is incorrect, been a couple of years since I studied your language...) Ok, I'll stop joking around now. With it being almost 5 years since Kreator's last album, Phantom Antichrist, I'd been wondering what the band had been up to … Continue reading Review: Kreator – Gods Of Violence
