Majestica – A Christmas Carol
Year: 2020Total Time: 41:05 Label: Nuclear Blast It is prevalent, especially in recent years even more intensely, that as the Christmas’ holidays approach, many bands are going to release a song, an EP, a video, some covers of well-known songs or carols celebrating the festive spirit of the days.

Pyramaze – Epitaph
Year: 2020 Total Time: 01:01:42 Label: AFM Records The Danes PYRAMAZE are a melodic power metal band with some progressive influences and many (many) choral and melodic elements in their music.

Aeolian – The Negationist
Year: 2020 Total Time: 51:14 Label: Black Lion Records 2020 has left a few days ago and most people are probably relieved for this fact. At THEGALLERY.GR (and everywhere in the world, let’s not hide it anyway) we are preparing for our lists regarding the best (in our humble opinion) Extreme Metal releases of the […]

Cadaver – Edder & Bile
Year: 2020 Total Time: 31:30 Label: Nuclear Blast I have the small impression that the Norwegian death metallers CADAVER should not be that familiar to the younger viewers of our page and metal music, but believe me, in the years 1988-1992 when they released their demo and the first two albums, they were one of […]

Year: 2020Total Time: 19:50Label: Malignant Voices Polish Black Metallers DEUS MORTEM last year caused “earthquakes” with their excellent second album “Kosmocide” and “forced” us to deal with them.

Drengskapur – Was Der Morast Verschlang
Year: 2020 Total Time: 57:00 Label: Self-Financed What’s “true” (black) metal? Well, here’s a difficult one and there isn’t a universally accepted answer. And even if there was, regarding some characteristics of the genre, its application on different groups and artists would be largely diverse and therefor meaningless. So, would it be that “true” means […]
Ecclesia – De Ecclesiæ Universalis
Year: 2020Total Time: 46:40Label: Aural Music On the one hand we have the mainstream “satanic” side with commercial juggernauts GHOST and on the other hand ” the poor but honest children of Christ”, bands like ECCLESIA and WYTCH HAZEL with new albums out respectively.

Evildead – United States Of Anarchy
Year: 2020 Total Time: 38:35 Label: Steamhammer One band I remember from my youth with nostalgia is Evildead.
