Disconnected Souls – Fragments Of Consciousness
I'm speechless. Fragments Of Consciousness is very complex and very varied. It is certainly not an album for easy listening on the motorway. I imagine turning off the lights, leaning back and closing my eyes. Dream away and lose yourself listening to this outstanding album.
Chatting with Sonia of Cobra Spell
As promised, here is the second interview with Cobra Spell, this time with founder and lead guitarist Sonia Anubis. Most of you might also know her from her fantastic work with Burning Witches and Crypta. We will of course talk about Cobra Spell and the album "666".

Mysterica and Major Overdrive
What could be better than having your own birthday concert if you're a true metalhead? Especially if you have your own band? Exactly, giving your own concert for your friends!

SerapiS Project -Palingenesis
Some weeks ago, I interviewed Cobra Spell’s vocalist Kris Vega.

This conceptual progressive metal project released its first album in autumn 2023. I gave it a listen. I liked it, so here we are with the belated review of “Palingenesis”.
