Music reviews, thoughts and personal music compositions
spotify:album:4SiZSq9igWhpJoMzjxE1xE Recap: So, we're back and it's time to take a look at disc 2 from the Iron Maiden Rock In Rio gig. As I mentioned at the end of the first post this is my favourite of the two because it features some great performances of classic tracks like Fear Of The Dark and... Continue Reading →
Rock in Rio by Iron Maiden is one of my all time favourite live albums, a double disc helping of pure unchecked metal awesomeness. The classic Live After Death (1985) is often sighted as Maidens best live release, chronicling their epic World Slavery tour, and while there is no doubt that album rocks, for me...

Had to get a post out about this. I'm currently sat in my fiancees mums living room in Slovakia, chilling out watching some Metallica YouTube videos as you do. And I come across a video, a video that blew me away. It's Metallica live in Oakland CA in 2016 playing Creeping Death and Blackened, Creeping... Continue Reading →
Sorry it’s been a few weeks since the last post, work has been mental! So, onto Atlas, Rise!, track number 2 on Metallica’s Hardwired to Self-Destruct. This track I’ll admit, didn’t really catch my attention to begin with and it certainly didn’t get the repeat plays that Hardwired and Moth Into Flame got when I... Continue Reading →
Well, hasn't this been the biggest gap between reviews! 6 months since I wrote my overall thoughts on Hardwired To Self Destruct (HTSD) I've finally got round to writing my thoughts for the opening track. Better late than never? We'll see. As the album opener it has some pretty big shoes to fill if we... Continue Reading →
Well it was 8 years in the waiting but as mentioned in my last post it's finally here, Metallica's brand new album Hardwired... To Self-Destruct. I'm going to to review each track individually in separate posts as I think that just makes it more manageable for myself! So before I start on the album opener Hardwired to... Continue Reading →
It's here, finally after 8 long years! Metallica have released their new album Hardwired... To Self-Destruct. Is it worth the 8 year wait? Of course it was! 🙂 I'm still getting into all the tracks but I will be writing a full review this weekend as well as the rest of the Transformers soundtrack review... Continue Reading →
Volbeat are something of unique band within the world of Heavy Metal music, well they are in my opinion. Formed in 2001 in Copenhagen, lead singer Michael Poulsen had been the vocalist in the Death Metal band Dominus but after 4 albums he decided he wanted to break away from the scene and so he pulled together...

It's been a while since my last post, mainly due to the fact I have been super busy visiting family, going for a weekend away in Gdansk Poland and just get back into a song writing groove. I wanted to drop a quick post about my favourite albums of all time though, which is Metallica's... Continue Reading →
Aah St Anger, an album that divided Metal fans like no other. An album that sparked debate and provoked very strong opinions. It's an album that has spawned hundreds of articles debating it's merits and its foibles. Here though is my personal experience of this most polarising of metal albums. Released way back in 2003 (is... Continue Reading →
