Brainscab Diagnosis=Annihilationmancer: The Involution Philosophy


Pure Steel Records
Metal as a challenge is what I say. Annihilationmancer has challenged the threshold of modern metal as we know it. Thrashing to a sound not unfamiliar of days past (Megadeth, Metal Church eg: 80’s era.) but with a freshness of originals in “The Involution Philosophy”.  “Antimateria”, “Etereo”, “The Involution Philosophy”, “Apolide”, “ Impoverishment God Existence” , “ Corner of the Answers”, “ Reflected in her Life”, “ Mind Surrounds the Cavities of Fear”, fills the mind, the soul and the blood with pure METAL that is familiar enough to catch your attention, but original enough to keep searching for more.

Steamhammer/SPV Music
Here is a band that has been around for a while and has not lost their passion for doing up a great slice of metal for the fans. Virgin Steele has lead the way in epic, sword and sorcery metal for over a decade. Brining the message of pagan gods and the wars fought for the salvation of man. “By The Hammer Of Zeus”, “Pagan Heart”, “The Bread Of Wickedness”, “In A Dream Of Fire”, “Nepenthe”, “The Orpheus Taboo”, “To Crown Them With Halos”, “The Black Light Bacchanalia”, “ The Torture’s Of The Damned”, “Necropolis”, “Eternal Regret”, all weave a masterful tale blended with classic sound of a “True Metal” band. Iron Maiden, Manowar and Manilla Road are already in your collection! Now is the time to add Virgin Steele!!!
Oh! There is a bonus disc also with “ When I’m Silent”, “Silent Sorrow”, “From A Whisper To A Scream”, that will just keep you listening to “The Black Light Bacchanalia “ for a long time to come in the future.
