REVEREND BIZARRE „Harbinger of Metal EP”
Despite its length, Harbinger of Metal is considered an EP. The disc contains six original tracks and one cover of BURZUMs Dunkelheit. If you read my reviews of In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend and II: Crush the Insects then do not change your preconceived notions about what Harbinger is supposed to sound like.
REVEREND BIZARRE „II: Crush the Insects”
This is the second CD Ive reviewed by Finnish doom metallers, REVERAND BIZARRE. The first one In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend was very dark and slow.
REVEREND BIZARRE „In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend”
In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend was originally released in 2002 via Sinister Figure/Low Frequency Records. Low Frequency re-released the album the following year.
SCORNGRAIN „0,05%”
One could rightly term SCORNGRAINs newest album, Futurist Thrash Metal. 0,05% is an amalgamation of Euro-metallooking to their Finnish brethren for inspirationand extreme electronic music.

MOONSORROW „Suden Uni”
SpikeFarm Records is synonymous with Finnish heavy metal. CHILDREN OF BODOM, FINNTROLL, and NIGHTWISHthree of the biggest names in Finland all call SpikeFarm home.
DEATHCHAIN „Deaththrash Assault”
Deaththrash Assault is a most fitting album title for bullet-belted metallers, DeathChain because these Fins play a hybrid style of death metal and thrash akin to Swedish bands like THE CROWN, DEFLEASHED, SWORDMASTER, and WITCHERY. Upon first listen, it is easy to assume this group is from Sweden.

TO SEPERATE THE FLESH FROM THE BONES „Utopia Sadistica”
Cool Songs: Meatbash, The Final Extinction, Amputated Whore, Mutilated Virgin Slut, Condition Dead

HELWULF „Wolves of War & Blood”
Finlands HELWULF makes no qualms about what kind of music they strive to create, and that is ugly, grinding, raw Black Metal with few moments of melody. The two-piece band does not employ the videogame keyboards or extravagant solos played by many of their fellow countrymen.
SONATA ARCTICA „For the Sake of Revenge”
If you have not had the chance to experience the wonderment that is SONATA ARCTICA let me quickly bring you up to “speed” as it were. The band originates in Finland and they quickly became a local favorite and even were often paired with the Finnish juggernaut Nightwish.
TORTURE KILLER „Swarm!”
I've been a fan of Chris Barnes since his beginning and after hearing Torture Killer's first album, I soon became a fan of theirs too. Sure, they copy the Six Feet Under sound and that's exactly why I liked them.
SILENTIVM „Seducia”
Emanated from the gothic act FUNERAL, SILENTIVM around the beautiful singer Riina Rinkinen also play gothic metal. For a few years now, the Finns have belonged to the scene, but unfortunately could not call bigger attention.
