Fatality … The Axis Of Metal Interview: Part Two – Indiegogo

First off, if you’re wondering why I did a second interview in such quick succession with this phenomenal band, ask yourself this question: “is the underground important?” If you don’t think so … get off this site, because we here at Axis Of Metal are warriors of the underground. Our ethos is one of support [...]

Ass Of Spades – Sleep When You Die – Review

Truth be told, some of the best memories I have as a child are listening to tunes with my dad. At the young age of eleven years old, my Dad would take me fishing a lot on the weekends and on the fifteen minute drive down to the pier he’d crank all the tunes that [...]

Kalmah – Seventh Swamphony – Review

Melodic death metal is just one of those genres for me. I don’t listen to a lot of it. Not out of any strong dislike for it, but because I get what I want from it from so relatively few albums out of the incredibly overcrowded field of players. Give me a handful of early [...]

Sodom – The Epitome Of Torture – Review

Well, this album and band make me sad. It’s not because I don’t like Sodom, or anything like that, but it makes me sad in the sense that I long for the Sodom of old. The Sodom that destroys everything. You know the Agent Orange or Tapping The Vein Sodom. That Sodom.  With that said, [...]

La Chinga … The Axis Of Metal Interview

Posted  May 2, 2013  by  Paul Ferritto [Fritz]

So who else is sick of reading bullshit introductions to interviews and articles? I know I am. Plus, I’m sick and tired of writing them because “you have to”. So, I’m taking a stand here, and laying it all on the line. What do you need to know before you read this interview? Well, La [...]

Death to All- Silver Spring, MD- Review

Posted  April 27, 2013  by  ThePitGoddess

I guess I get the distinction of writing the first American show review for Axis of Metal, most excellent.  Since this is the case- let me preface this review by saying that I’m sort of a live show snob.  Being technically proficient and playing your music flawlessly is one thing, and that’s cool, but I [...]

The Ferret Interviews: In Vain

Posted  April 27, 2013  by  Thomas Bawden

First off, let me thank you for taking the time to conduct this interview. Your work has always seemed somewhat distinctive compared to a lot of others in the Progressive scene, but for those less aware of your decade long career, do you mind briefly explaining the band’s history up to this point? Thank you [...]
