Black Magician are Olde English Pastoral Doom. Hailing from Liverpool they take their influences from the likes of Hawkwind, Black Sabbath, Celtic Frost, Coven, Saint Vitus + many many more, along with a deep tie with Olde English Folklore.
“Like Atomic Rooster playing early Cathedral.” – Doomlord
Described as Monolithic cosmic-nod-inducing riffs, swirling Hammond organ and dark acoustic passages are the ingredients in this alchemical brew, the resulting concoction a grim incantation, an ode to anti-urbanism, a very English darkness.

Lordi is ready for the release of the sixth studio album To Beast Or Not To Beast. The new album is musically the most aggressive Lordi album yet. The seeds of the new approach in Lordi’s music were originally planted and inspired by the technical and brutal way the band’s former drummer Otus played Lordi songs. For the first time in Lordi´s history, Mr Lordi was not the one, who set up the tone of the upcoming material. Amen wrote 3 riffs in the spring of 2011 inspired by late Otus´ drum patterns. Those riffs were to become the musical guidelines of the new album To Beast Or Not To Beast.
Year 2012 marked two anniversaries for Lordi, both the 20th year birthday since the bands birth and the 10th anniversary of the release of their debut album Get Heavy. However, all the planned celebration was quickly toned down hard, as the drummer Otus passed away on February 13th. After the time of silence, the band played the confirmed gigs and summer festivals accompanied by a musician mysteriously named as The Drummer. Another line-up change became reality in early August, when the long-time keyboard player Awa played at the anniversary show in Rovaniemi. That was her last gig with Lordi.
In late August 2012, the band went again to USA to record the sixth studio album under the production of Michael Wagener. In December, a new keyboardist Hella and a new drummer Mana were officially announced to be the new members of Lordi.
Lordi’s new album “To Beast or not to Beast” will be released on the 1st March. A single, entitled “Riff” will be out on February 8th.

GOTH bio Biography
Gospel of the Horns formed in Brisbane, Australia, in 93 and in late 94 they released their cult demo The Satanist’s Dream on Einstand Records from Italy. In 96 Howitzer moved to Melbourne where he teamed up with Destroyer 666, playing drums for the Unchain the Wolves album. During this period, Howitzer was seeking adequate heathens to reform Gospel of the Horns. ….
Finally emerging in June 97 with Marauder taking over the guitar duties. Their second demo Sinners was recorded in May 98, once again selling well and gaining extremely positive reviews. After much consideration, the band decided to sign a deal with Damnation Records from Holland. …. In November 98,Gospel did a deal with Morbid Productions [Australia] to release the Monuments of Impurity 7″ EP [limited to 300]. It contained three tracks which included Blood, Death, Hatred – a Mortal Sin number taken from their classic Mayhemic Destruction LP. ….
Soon after this, Hellcunt [ex-Bestial Warlust, Anatomy, Entasis] joined the band injecting a more solid edge to the music. Gospel of the Horns debut M.L.P on Damnation was released in February 2000, entitled Eve of the Conqueror. …. Shortly after the release of Conqueror, Gospel of the Horns embarked on their first European assault in July/August 2000. They played with bands such as Enthroned, Primordial, Pentacle, Thus Defiled, Archon Infaustus, Adorior and Hammerhawk. They conquered countries including Holland, Belgium, France, Ireland & England. …. Since returning from their European tour Gospel introduced a second guitarist Masocist (ex-Anatomy, Hellspawn). and unleased their first full length album titled A call to arms which was released on Invictus Productions from Ireland in 02. ….
In May 03 the band toured Europe for the second time with In-Aeternum and Razor of Occam which was a great success. After returning the band has since played extensively around Australia. Gospel of the Horns again became a three piece. …. After completing a successful Australian tour with legendary Swedish Death Metal band Dismember, G.O.T.H introduced another second guitarist, Hexx {ex- Carbon, Urgrund, Trench Hell} to the line-up in early 06. ….
Gospel of the Horns released their second album, Realm of the Damned, in 2007 to promote their third U.S/European tour in 08/09. After the return of the bands tour of the States the band layed down the arms… You bastards know the story..
