MOCH OF DOOM @ Gaia Em Peso, 2010/10/23

Now this was an even bigger surprise. Can’t describe exactly what they play, but whatever it is, it’s fast, full of attitude and well performed. Singer Jorge is very expressive, guitarrist José the typical headbanger, bassplayer João is a natural … Continue reading

ADAMANTINE @ Gaia Em Peso, 2010/10/23

I don’t know what I was expecting from a band with such a name, but I definitely didn’t count on such a good thrash metal band. Sure, diamonds are the hardest stones, but still, I find it hard to relate … Continue reading

BLOWSIGHT’s “Dystopia Lane”

Original Portuguese version here: http://backstageforum.hot-me.com/releases-f65/blowsight-dystopia-lane-review-t3876.htm » What most caught my attention the first time I’ve ever listened to BLOWSIGHT was Nick Red’s voice – melodic, clean on both high and low tones, and catchy.

Original Portuguese version here: http://backstageforum.hot-me.com/live-music-feedback-f73/2010-10-16-dagoba-panoias-t3798.htm » DAGOBA went beyond all my expectations.
