REVIEW: Amorphis – Under the Red Cloud (Musicalypse Archive)

AMORPHIS hasn’t been exactly amorphous in recent years, as the band seems to have adopted an “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” mentality...

REVIEW: Bullet for My Valentine – Venom (Musicalypse Archive)

I know I’ve been going on and on about how great the new releases in 2015 have been, but let’s face it – those...

REVIEW: Helloween – My God Given Right (Musicalypse Archive)
