Chariot of the Gods - Tides of War (video)

Chariots of The Gods - "Tides of War" Iron Maiden-esque riffage? Check! Time changes? Check! Head banging guitars? Check! Fast and Furious? Check! Stock Guitar Solo? Check! Kinda Emo Interlude? Check! There is a LOT going on in the song "Tides of War". The track is from Chariots of The Gods 2013 album Tides of War . The album emerged in January of this year. The great thing about this is that it is a self release. I give a big thumbs up to Chariots of the Gods for putting together a really good sounding album. I'm not the only one who thinks so. The band have been getting some choice reviews. The first thing you notice about Tides of War is the guitar playing. Dimitri Gervais and Mathieu St. Amour are tight. They are quite the guitar duo.

Immolation - Kingdom of Conspiracy

ahhhhh Immolation Y U so Heavy???!!! I'd like to personally thank those at Nuclear Blast Europe for the new Immolation track "Kingdom of Conspiracy" from the album Kingdom of Conspiracy . It is a symphony of guitars. It is a guttural assault on the senses. Yes you may have heard the runs before. Yes it may seem to sound like every other death metal band out there. But settle yourselves into the ebb and flow of the composition. You shall find that Ross Dolan, Robert Vigna, Bill Taylor, and Steve Shalaty finesse their way thru a classic head banging dirge-like abyss of hell. And let's not forget dear listeners.... Immolation, under the guise of Rigor Mortis , started this trend in the way back machine known as the 80s (in finger quotes). So if you've heard all of this before - you may thank THEM as THEY STARTED IT ALL!!!!  Get the album at: Nuclear Blast Records: http://smarturl.it/imkocnb iTunes: http://smarturl.it/ImmoKiCoTunes Amazon: http://smarturl.it/i
