Buckcherry: It’s Only Rock N’ Roll "As far as rock’n’roll albums go, I think that the first album is pretty perfect"
Turilli/ Lione Rhapsody: A New Rebirth "We have really found an agreement with the sound as the new direction because otherwise we would have both gotten bored"
The (Really) Essential Australian Heavy Music List 42 tracks you need to hear
The Mark of Cain: Standing Alone "It’s always been that loner, outlier, outsider, whatever you want to call it
Dark Angel: Merciless Metal "It takes a moment to get your chops together and to keep your chops in order to keep on playing blast beats"
The Darkness: Live til They Die "I’m so happy I’m in a proper rock and roll band with actual instruments without things like backing tracks and the like"
Opeth: A Sting in the Tail "This one is very different from the other ones and that’s very important. It feels like we’re fresh and we always have new territories to explore.”
Metal Church: Tempo of the Damned "I kind of run into trouble with the Christian rock or Christian metal scene only in the sense that the lyrics are kind of all the same."
Sabaton: The Art of War "I think that we will not see the end of war, at least not in my lifetime."
Cradle of Filth: Reviving the Beast "It was something that grew naturally from first thinking of an idea to the finished, grand over-arcing theme”
Immolation: Harnessing Death "It’s always nice to see the new school of bands capturing that vibe and making their own"
HammerFall: Against the World "HammerFall stands for heavy metal, and nothing else"
