Pigeon Toe – The First Perception – Album Review

Sunday, April 22, 2012

First of all, let’s get the issue of the band’s name out of the way. It is awful. It just is. Everybody I’ve spoken to agrees with this, so let’s just leave it there. Moving on to the music then, what do we have? Well, we have Goth. And more Goth. With a little bit [...]

For The Imperium – S/T – Album Review

Sunday, April 1, 2012

There seems to be an unwritten rule here at Dawn Of The Deaf that anytime something suitably weird comes through the door it has an uncanny habit of finding its way onto my poorly lit, over cluttered desk, so it should come as no surprise that a copy of For The Imperium’s eponymously titled new [...]

Last Winter – The Heart And The Broken Compass – Album Review

Fans of Morbid Angel, Testament, Death and Slayer would definitely relate to our music! What are your biggest influences? Rami: Lots of [...]

Nervecell – Psychogenocide – Album Review

Sunday, April 24, 2011

No matter what comes to your mind when you think of Dubai (U.A.E) I can almost certainly guarantee that death metal won’t be one of them. Even the most diehard metalhead would struggle name any Middle Eastern metal bands, so it’s understandable that my expectations for “Psychogenicide: Nervecell’s sophomore release weren’t exactly high. This was [...]
