Fifth band appearing in Metal Horde #31 has been buried for over twenty years but with the issuing of a box-set with all their 3 albums and demos, I thought it was good to have a chat with Ant Ryan, bass player, vocalist and founding member of UK Death Metal horde Necrosanct.. A blast from the past!!!

2nd full-length album called "Incarnate" released in 1992 via Black Mark Production by the Death Metal band NECROSANCT from United Kingdom formed in 1989.htt...

Time to unveil the second band interviewed in our new issue #31 (look at me, it's like I have my own fest)!!! They arrive from the UK, yes, I stayed in the country where I live now, and they are a hell of a good Doom/Death Metal band!! And very nice as well!!! If you see them in a line-up close to you, go and see them, as they are quite good!!! Here is Consecration!!!

Issue number 31 is in the making and it should be ready in early October. Just finishing some reviews and then out to the printer it goes!! It will bring 8 interviews, and one of them is with this amazing Doom/Heavy band from Czechia called Trahir!! Their debut album is quite good and I'll leave here one of its best tracks: Blakulla!!!

Bem, um pequeno update no artigo sobre a The Birth Of A Tragedy, que tem vindo a sair na Metal Horde como fascículos:

Em principio vai ter 20 paginas no todo.. Quando terminar e visto que nem todos terão os números todos da zine poderei fazer o artigo disponível em PDF para quem tiver interessado.

Para alem de introdução (onde foi usado um artigo escrito pelo Duarte Dionisio para o blog dele), descrição das faixas e bandas na compilação, o artigo traz também um rol de questões que foram efectuadas a membros das bandas da compilação, para já e quando falta cerca de uma/duas semanas para fechar o artigo, estão presentes os Thormenthor, Genocide, Disaffected, Shrine, Lakrau, WEB, Decayed, Morbid God, Descration, Scourge, Afterdeath, Shangai Blue, Silent Scream, Dinosaur e Harum ou seja 15 das 20 bandas. E talvez mais uma outra surpresa.

O artigo esta em Inglês pois essa é a linguagem da zine (e o objectivo de dar a conhecer aos camones um pouco do que foi a nossa cena), mas se houver interesse talvez perca um pouco de tempo e faça também em Português para o mercado interno. Logo se vê.

Although it seems but Metal Horde isn't dead.. It has been only sleeping (and mostly because of my procrastination) but issue 31 is pretty much wrapped up.. 7 interviews finished (and maybe 1 or 2 more), reviews almost done and the 3rd part of the Portuguese stories is also more than 4/5 done.. Cover is pretty much done.. so if I stop procrastinating it will come in October (when the zine does 17 years of life)...

Yeah, I know I'm slow but well with SWR BARROSELAS METALFEST 24 and VIII MASSACRE METAL FEST mini-zines out of the way, maybe I'll be a bit faster!! Or not, my call!!!

Here you have my blurred vision of the 1st day of the very nice Celestial Darkness Festival which happened in the beginning of March brought to us by the fine people of Cult Of Parthenope.

The good people of Cult of Parthenope , the guys behind Cosmic Void , decided to do a fest a bit more eclectic, and not so as much focused o...

Between harassing bands to answer interviews, I still find some time to babble about some concerts we attend!!! This time a great night which involved Deitus, Darkest Era and Necronautical at The Underworld Camden!!!

A bit slow but still trying!!! January did not have a lot of concerts!! One was this awesome one with one of my favourite bands in London, The Lunar Effect in one very awesome bar called Helgi's!! Will try to be more effective on this live reviews but who cares??

After a calm December, concert-wise, January wasn’t too busy as well!! Only had a couple under surveillance and went to both!!! First, a ret...

There was an historical concert in London and as we are fans of both bands (one more than other but that doesn't matter now), we were present in the Paradise Lost and My Dying Bride concert at the O2 in Shepherd's Bush!! We had some fun, and I thought why not write about it??? So here it is!!!

Very special night this one, where we for the first time went to the O2 in Shepherd’s Bush to witness Paradise Lost’s 30 th anniversary of ...

Yes, we went to another show and decided to talk about it!! Are we annoying or what?? Here's to an excellent night which Cult Of Parthenope provided by bringing Hulder, GROZA, The Infernal Sea & Stahlsarg to the Downstairs At The Dome!!!

US band Hulder was performing in Europe for the first time, and we were lucky that Cult Of Parthenope arranged for them to come to London,...

After a restful night, time for the second day of the festival which started really soon with Anakim, which I miss as I had some more famil...
