INTERVIEW TO SACRILEGE! (WITH PAUL MACNAMARA)


Hey brutal bangers,
after reviewing "The Court of the Insane" by Sacrilege in full quarantine period, I asked to their manager Valeria Campagnale if I could interview them. Her answer was positive but, for some reasons, I found the time to prepare the interview only the last month, in August. As the saying goes: "it's better late than never"! And, anyway, it was even since Cripple Bastards that no interviews were featured on these putrid pages!
So, enjoy this interview to an historic (but unlucky at that time) NWOBHM band, that is now living an explosion of creativity since their reunion happened in 2012!
Thanks to Valeria for sending me the beautiful band pics for this interview!

Honorable Mentions from the Abyss #25: Mastemey/Sandbreaker/Железный Поток

Hey brutal bangers,
welcome to a new episode of "Honorable Mentions from the Abyss", that is totally focused on some albums that I received many months ago by Mythrone Promotion. To say the entire truth, it sent me recently a new pack of albums that I initially received in digital format during the fuckin' quarantine. But, for the moment, discover the albums (and their bands) presented in this article. Ranging from death/doom metal to thrash metal, I am sure that they will not disappoint you!

Go! Fest: la decima edizione si farà!


Hey brutal bangers,
nonostante l'assurda situazione che stiamo vivendo, gli organizzatori del Go! Fest hanno voluto comunque salvare la nuova edizione del "festival più veloce d'Italia" mettendola su per il 3 ottobre presso il solito Spartaco, salvo nuove disposizioni per scongiurare una possibile seconda quarantena (ma speriamo proprio che non ci sia!).

Regressive - "Born in the Grave" (Defense Records/Mythrone Promotion, 2019)

Band: Regressive
Title: Born in the Grave
Genre: Black/Speed'n'Roll
Time: 33.39 min
Release date: 19th October 2019
Vote: 85/100










As the Cuban thrash metal sensation Infector, also the Regressive is a band that I featured in the "Metal in the Box #1". Now that I have the occasion to talk about them in a more specific way, they are a trio from Lithuania founded in 2008 but, after two splits and a curious release shared with the brutal deathsters Infestation covering an Exhumed's track, they published their debut full-lenght album "Born in the Grave" (Defense Records/Mythrone Promotion) only last year. Fortunately, the wait was not in vain because we are in presence of three guys that perfectly know what they are doing and... but it's still too soon for the conclusions, so let's see because they deserve your consideration!

Hey brutal bangers,
welcome to the 9th episode of "Come on, burn my ears!", the Timpani allo Spiedo's playlist that, this time, is a bit particular, as you'll see soon.
