"... And Death Said Live" is the fourth studio album from the Finnish masters of melodic death metal and one of the best releases in their discography, named in reviews as one of the genre's greatest albums. After a few years of hiatus, the band has returned with material that combines ruthless speed, technical precision, and typical northern melodies. The album is full of razor-sharp riffs, dynamic tempo changes, and excellent guitar parts that build a dark, epic atmosphere. The production is selective and powerful, and the whole album is full of aggressive energy typical for this kind of metal. This material should not be omitted by fans of Children of Bodom, Dark Tranquillity or Wintersun. To sum up: power, melody, and technique in perfect proportions.

By the late 1980s, Nasty Savage were no longer just the wild Florida upstarts who shocked the underground with their feral 1985 debut-they were evolving.Originally released on Metal Blade Records, Indulgence (1987) marked a turning point. The chaos of the early years sharpened into tighter arrangements, darker atmosphere, and more ambitious songwriting. The riffs became more precise. The structures more progressive. The mood more ominous. Yet the theatrical unpredictability that defined Nasty Savage remained front and center, driven by Ronnie "Nasty Ronnie" Galetti's unhinged and dramatic vocal attack.This definitive CD edition unites the complete 1987 Indulgence LP with the 1988 Abstract Reality EP-two crucial chapters in Florida metal history presented together for the first time in this restored format.The band's earlier appearance on Metal Massacre VI helped establish them as part of the American underground elite, but it was this era that cemented their regional influence. Members of Morbid Angel and Obituary have cited Nasty Savage as part of the early Florida foundation, and drummer Curtis Beeson would later perform with Death-a direct line connecting this material to the rise of the Florida death metal movement.Musically, the material balances razor-edged thrash intensity with theatrical flair reminiscent of King Diamond, while maintaining the aggression and technicality fans of Slayer and Dark Angel expect. There is a darker, more refined edge here-less reckless than the debut, but more deliberate and menacing.Remastered by Rob Colwell (Flotsam, Helstar, Geoff Tate, Nevermore), this Metal Icon Series edition enhances clarity and punch while preserving the raw character of the original recordings. Limited to just 500 CDs worldwide and housed in a traditional jewel case with a 12-page booklet, this release stands as a collector-grade restoration of a pivotal era.This is Florida metal in transition.Sharper. Darker. More ambitious.A bridge between thrash chaos and emerging extremity.For fans of King Diamond, Slayer, Dark Angel, Possessed!

Before Florida became synonymous with death metal, there was Nasty Savage.Released in 1985 on Metal Blade Records, Nasty Savage was a feral, unpredictable strike of American thrash - violent, theatrical, and years ahead of it's time. While the Bay Area was refining precision thrash, Florida was cultivating something darker. This debut captured that tension in real time.Fronted by the unhinged charisma of Ronnie "Nasty Ronnie" Galetti, the band fused razor-edged riffing with manic, theatrical vocals that drew inevitable comparisons to King Diamond - but filtered through the raw aggression of mid-80s U.S. thrash. The result was chaotic in the best possible way.Tracks like "No Sympathy," "Gladiator," and "The Morgue" delivered breakneck tempo shifts, sinister melodies, and an intensity that helped lay the groundwork for the Florida extreme metal explosion that followed.The band's appearance on Metal Massacre VI placed them alongside the most important underground metal acts of the era and solidified their place in early American thrash history. Members of Morbid Angel and Obituary have cited Nasty Savage as part of the early Florida foundation - and drummer Curtis Beeson would later go on to perform with Death, further cementing that lineage.Now restored as part of Brutal Planet Records' elite Metal Icon Series, this limited edition CD edition presents the 1985 classic remastered by Rob Colwell (Flotsam, Helstar, Geoff Tate, Nevermore) and housed in a traditional jewel case with a 12-page booklet.This is not polished retro-thrash.This is volatile, early American metal history - captured at full intensity.For fans of King Diamond, Slayer, Dark Angel, Possessed!

With their 2026 album 'We Are The Gods That Tear Ourselves Apart', Necrotted are now taking the next step in their development and marking another milestone in their history. As always, the LP is designed as a concept album and, with it's thought-provoking lyrics, seems even more mature than it's predecessors. The band has grown up and knows exactly what it wants to be. The new songs skillfully move between genre boundaries without this fluidity sounding forced. Death metal, black metal and elements from slam and core are mixed together to create an explosive blend. Thunderous blast beats and oppressive slam parts, crashing breakdowns and memorable guitar riffs - the new album has it all. The lyrics, mostly written in English, are once again accompanied by texts in the band's native German. And this time, there are even Latin passages to be discovered. As usual, these are performed exclusively with inhuman-sounding guttural vocals. 'We Are The Gods That Tear Ourselves Apart' will be released in April 2026 via the label Reaper Entertainment and is almost certain to make a big impact on the contemporary extreme metal scene.

US-American metal band Nekrologus is considered highly successful within the extreme metal underground due to it's immense foundational influence on the "black metal" genre. The debut album is raw, chaotic, and aggressive. The album avoids keyboards and complex song structures, focusing on sheer brutality and intensity. The sound is a fusion of death metal and grindcore with the evil, primitive nature of early black metal.

Brazilian all-female thrash commando unit Nervosa is synonymous with raw aggression and untamed power - a massive punch right in the face both live and immortalized on two records so far! For their third album Downfall of Mankind, the trio joined forces with producer Martin Furia who previously worked with Destruction, Flotsam & Jetsam and Evil Invaders and also toured with Nervosa as a sound engineer. The result perfectly captures the live energy and the old school character that defines the band without neglecting the strengths of a modern, compact soundscape. Riff-fests like 'Vultures' and 'Kill the silence' grab the listener by the throat and succeed with straight-ahead stomp and economical arrangements - it comes as no surprise genre legends such as João Gordo (Ratos de Porão), Rodrigo Oliveira (Korzus) and Michael Gilbert (Flotsam & Jetsam) were thrilled to be studio guests! A highly focused killing machine that will give the thrashing competition a run for it's money.

Cleveland’s unholy denizens of the underground, NUNSLAUGHTER, come slamming out of the grave in 2026 with their BLKIIBLK Records debut, Satanic Chaos Legions. A constant in extreme metal and an unyielding inspiration for generations of black metal and thrash provocateurs, NUNSLAUGHTER’s latest hymnal of brutality kicks off with its track’s call-to-irreligious arms and doesn’t let go to the bloody end. Tracks like the grinding “Peukharist” or the uncompromising “Unsacrament” batter the senses like the bastard offspring of Slayer and Earth A.D. era Misfits, inverting crucifixes worshipping at the hoof of the ibex. Now, having set fire to the international metal scene at festivals across the globe, ritual performances with Acid Bath and tours with fellow Satanic royalty, Midnight, make no mistake NUNSLAUGHTER’s campaign of world-defilement is just beginning.
