BEYOND THE DREAM
'In The Heart Of Nothing'

Storming Finns Beyond The Dream abseil the waterfall of improvement to deliver their best work yet, their third album 'In The Heart Of Nothing', with a toned down recorded sound, the atmosphere takes over, unleashing the wintry blast of Lapland and sleekness of Jyväskylä, mixing the Melodic Death Metal fuel which seems to have glued to Finland with the dark Gothic Metal feel Finland exhibits, Beyond The Dream are Poisonblack and Wintersun merged together, from the ashes of something came the result of being 'In The Heart Of Nothing'.

BLASPHEMER
'Devouring Deception'
COMATOSE

Italian Brutal Death Metal merchants Blasphemer unleash gore and gut-rotten infestations with their first EP released last year, 'Devouring Deception' captivates grunts, growls and gurgling but limited vocals, whilst the drum blastbeats and guitar riffs do some salvage, the overall EP has it's own level of brutal insanity, regardless of the vocal wonders, Blasphemer are proving that Brutal Death Metal is always underground and is best kept deep underground to avoid the 'Devouring Deception'.
