From Canada to Ukraine, with this virtual travel we do a step back in Europe with the Rivne based Death/Funeral metal band Amilyband that debuts on Solitude Productions with the album “To All in Graves”. Our dear Vard Aman took the chance to review it and seems that he quite enjoyed this release insomuch as to rate it 90 out of 100. The main singer is the growler Growllemin Amor but on only one song, “Fading Image of My Own”, features the enchanting female vocals of Amatielle. In conclusion, if you love Death/Funeral metal you MUST check out this release. Read more @  (via Amily – “To All in Graves” (2012) « Femme Metal Webzine)

Independent Release

Review by Tony Cannella

From Helsinki, Finland, Shear plays melodic Power Metal.Their debut EP goes by the title of “In Solitude” and features 4-songs and 20-minutes worth of quality music. “In Solitude” starts with the energetic title track. Heavy, chunky guitar riffs highlights this song and the instantly likeable vocals of Alexa Leroux are also on display here. “Scorched” is next and is more of a mid-tempo number but is highlighted by a great chorus and some more solid riffing and a cool solo as well.The final two tracks “Trapped in a Shell” and “Mistakes” brings “In Solitude” to a satisfying conclusion. Not a bad way to end things and it just accentuates the fact that “In Solitude” manages to be consistent throughout. Shear is another solid metal band to emerge from Finland. The songs are just straight-forward, powerful and addictive. The band certainly makes the most of the 20-minute playing time on “In Solitude”.
