2023-06-29 : All Hell's Breaking Loose - Raven 6 / 10
  All Hell's Breaking Loose Raven, like Saxon, Satan, and Iron Maiden, were part of the NWoBHM that conquered the world in the early 80s.(...) Some 42 years on and they’re still functioning and releasing new albums on a regular basis, making them part of an increasingly exclusive NWoBHM Survivor Series.(...) Now the angry birds are back with their 15th album, All Hell’s Breaking Loose and it’s Yours Steely tasked with analyzing their latest migration patterns.(...)

2023-06-02 : But Here We Are - Foo Fighters 6 / 10
  There’s something fascinating about Foo Fighters’ place in the musical zeitgeist. After all, this is a band reliably churning out unremarkable (if decent) radio rock, with their best work almost exclusively decades in the past, that still manages to attract a substantial friendly audience (...). Still, though, it’s kinda weird - after all those years, and all those middling records (...), there’s still a crowd willing to jam Foo Fighters’ latest effort(...) The album title is notably ambiguous.(

2023-05-30 : The Dark Tower - Burning Witches 7 / 10
  New Album of Burning Witches was released in early May. This is group's fifth studio record and is called "The Dark Tower". If you ask what it brings then I say - good heavy/power metal.

2023-04-23 : 72 Seasons - Metallica 6 / 10
  Having spent two decades making progressively worse albums, Metallica finally came good again with 2008’s Death Magnetic and 2016’s Hardwired... to Self-Destruct, both of which harked back to the inventiveness and sheer energy of their 1980s material.(...) 72 Seasons,(...) feels like a step backwards. While the 12 songs here are indisputably as heavy as anything they’ve ever recorded, across 77 long minutes the tempo is far too often set to “chugging”, except on a couple of(...)thrashier numbers

2023-04-12 : The Awakening - Kamelot 7 / 10
  In March another Kamelot's studio album - "The Awakening" was released. Music of the band is labeled differently - symphonic metal or progressive power metal, depending on where you look for the information. Anyway, on the Album you can find both styles, because the record is very varied but also tracks are of equal quality.

2023-03-27 : Dark Waters - Delain 7 / 10
  The future of the veteran Dutch symphonic metal band Delain was unclear after the lineup disbanded in early 2021, leaving only keyboardist Martijn Westerholt. After initially considering making it a project with rotating members, he decided to rebuild the lineup. He brought back drummer Sander Zoer, who had been in the band from 2006 to 2014, along with former guitarist Ronald Landa, who was previously a member from 2006 to 2009.

2023-03-07 : Lighting Up The Sky - Godsmack 7 / 10
  On 24. February 2023 Godsmack released their eighth studio album called "Lighting Up The Sky". As Sully Erna, group's leader, said - it is to be group's last studio release. So it is good goodbye as the album contain good music. It's not fantastic but good for sure.

  It's been almost a year since the The Hellacopters' last album "Eyes Of Oblivion" was released, but it fell into my hands quite recently. The albume is very good and below I quote parts of some reviews from other sites to support my words.
