METAL BLADE RECORDS COMPILATION - Metal Hammer Magazine August 2008
I just picked up the new Metal Hammer. One of the CD’s with the mag is a Metal Blade Records spotlight comp. If you don’t know much about MB then fuck off. The longest running (over 25 years now) METAL label in the world is still going strong…

Go back and read my previous reviews of these lunatics here, and you will realize they are not interested in anything but producing EVILMETAL that will make you want to drop acid grab an automatic rifle and hit the nearest mini-mall.
Gregory Lamberson’s low budget horror flick Slime City (Read Review Here) celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2008 with a soundtrack CD…
This my favorite album of the year by far. Necro delivers another masterpiece. I thought it would be tough for Necro to top his previous release “The Pre-Fix For Death,” but “Death Rap” is unquestionably Necro’s best album to date.
Shane: Do you still regularly PUKE onstage?
Lance: HELL YES, I GOT TO PROVE MORE THAN EVER NOW TO ALL THESE YOUNG METAL ACTS COMING OUT WHO’S THE MOTHER-FUCKING MASTER.
“I decided to leave the tour collectively with my manager and booking agent (both tour organizers) because we felt the tour’s demographic was not receiving hip hop well. I was facing hostile, disrespectful crowds and was returning the same energy back ten-fold by being more aggressive than them. It was making a lot of people in the tour crew nervous and there was concern someone might get hurt (NOT ME).
When I started Horror Yearbook, I knew the day would come when someone we knew, someone who may have become a friend of mine and the site, would have a project that would become my job to review. That day has come, and the friend I speak of is a very close one of Horror Yearbook, Greg Lamberson.
The sick fuck known as NECRO is a hardcore hip hop artist who blends elements of horror and heavy metal to create his own brutal genre of music known as “DEATH RAP.” Necro is a worldwide phenomena, currently decapitating audiences on the SOUNDS OF THE UNDERGROUND tour. He is also highly respected in the industry for his many years of hard work as an artist, producer, director, and as the owner/CEO of his own record label, PSYCHO+LOGICAL RECORDS.
To most, this twenty minute fistfukk would be considered ‘anti-music’. To me its like a drug…
“Black Winter” is the second offering of creeping hellfire from the Nevada thrashers BLASPHEMOUS CREATION. Picking up in fine fashion where the debut “Rest in Pieces” left off, this is more heavily German influenced blackthrash with a slightly elevated black metal stance than before.
“Nobody wanted to listen when we said this was for real, sold our souls to horror and then sealed the deal. You laughed in our faces and really pissed us off. Now BLOOD FREAK is still killing while you die weak and soft…”
Back around 1998 I reviewed the debut album from this band. It was a rather interesting album entitled Lost Chronicles of the War in Heaven.” For the time, they displayed a pretty typical style of black metal but a touch more bassludge and a slight doom influence permeated the album and made it stand out. Over the years the band has fought through lineup changes, labels dropping the ball, and even a breakup for a time.
A few months go by, I create a FRIGHTMARE fan page on myspace. One day I get a request from TORTURE GARDEN, I check out the page and see they are a true underground label and are offering up a beautiful 12 inch vinyl version of “Midnight Murder Mania!” And it was only 9 dollars!
I’m sure those who purchased this album on it’s official release date are much like me. We just wanted the new fucking songs! Yeah, Ronnie is back with Sabbath for the time being for a tour and this collection of highlights (thats up for argument) from the four albums these chaps released together…
I’m sure most of you into Metal already know about the reunion of Sabbath with with the fucking godly Mr. Ronnie James Dio. They played a sold out show in NYC (Radio City Music Hall) a couple days ago…
