IN REVIEW: Moshpit, Pushing Onwards, Blue Eyed Devils

Moshpit: Mirror Of An Unbroken Faith
(2007 OPOS records)

Awesome hardcore/ metalcore debut album from this German outfit. Very professional recording quality, heavy instrumental assaults, and intense/ passionate lyrics are what propels it into my favorite top 10 releases within the past few years. This is one of those albums that will hold it's replay value and eventually be in the "classics" archive. If you don't have it, pick it up. ~Steve Skam

Pushing Onwards: demo
(Promo 2007)

Really good 5 track demo of this Hungarian metalcore band. Three songs in Hungarian and two in English i found this to be a highly enjoyable listen. If you like heavy music and don't mind a language barrier then maybe you should grab a copy. ~Steve Skam

02- Media Valyu
03- Felebredes
04- Breeding The Swine
05- Eastern Plague


Blue Eyed Devils: We'll Never Die
(2003 V7 records)

My personal all-time favorite B.E.D. album. This album delivers the goods and i believe was intended to be a "safe" release composed of all the songs that weren't considered "over the top" and could be sold in Europe. With brutal in your face lyrics without being too blatently obvious this a vulgar display of raw hardcore talent at it's finest. 10/10

  1. I have just ordered the Moshpit album from a place called Sverigebutiken, I am looking forward to listen to it, the samples that I have heard sounds really great.

  2. This really is a superb release, which made waves in mainstream circles; all of which were positive responses. I anticipate seeing a sophomore release by the band.
