LIVE REPORT: Jinjer - Irving Plaza, New York City (2017-04-07)
Hailing from Ukraine, Jinjer embarked on their first US tour in early spring of 2018 with extreme-metal act Cradle of Filth. While most would say this is kind of a jarring mashup of metal genres, it kind of worked - sorta. I don’t think Cradle of Filth fans are necessarily fans of Jinjer, and vice-versa.

Alghazanth - Eight Coffin Nails (Review)
Alghazant, the well known symphonic black metal band that has been active for more than 20 years has given birth to ther new (and apparently last) album "Eight Coffin Nails." It is therefore a "swan song" of a band that, especially in the recent years, has been able to give us masterpieces such as "Vinum Intus" (2011) and "The Three-Faced Pilgrims" (2013), albums that I’ve loved so much, giving fresh blood to a subgenre considered by many to be nearing a dead end. However, wi
