Hellring

 This band is a true guarantee when it comes to doom, particularly American doom.

 'Adagio' brings nothing new under the sun... but reconfirms them as one of the best entities in the genre.

Solitude Aeturnus' 'Adagio' confirms the band's consistent excellence in American doom metal. The album features solid compositions, existential lyrics, and strong vocals by Robert Lowe. While it lacks experimentation, it upholds their signature heavy and melodic style. Highlights include 'Days of Prayer' and their Black Sabbath cover 'Heaven and Hell'. Overall, a respectable addition to their discography. Dive into the haunting melodies of Solitude Aeturnus' 'Adagio' and experience classic American doom metal at its finest.

 Malefique flows well until the discovery of the aforementioned book, from this moment on, strange 'events' begin, which will cause most of the film’s credibility to be lost.

 A film certainly superior to many things seen recently, with good moments, but that loses credibility and strength in the plot twists.

Eric Valette's Malefique is a notable French horror film that blends prison drama with psychological tension. The film excels in character development and atmosphere in its first half but loses credibility toward the end due to weak plot twists and a rushed conclusion. Despite its flaws, it remains stronger than many recent horror efforts though it falls short of becoming a thrilling classic. Discover the dark depths of Malefique—explore this French horror classic with a twist and decide if it earns its cult status.

 At the Edge of Time fascinates with its completeness: it is certainly not the band’s masterpiece, but perhaps never before have we found various influences not present in previous records.

 Blind Guardian re-emerges on the music market with a release worthy of their name, giving birth to an album that will surely make an impact.

Blind Guardian's At The Edge Of Time reaffirms their status in power metal by blending classic speed metal with symphonic elements. The album balances experimentation with familiar sounds, delivering fresh, engaging tracks. It surpasses their previous work, reconnecting with older masterpieces and offering diverse musical influences. Standout songs like 'Sacred Worlds' and 'Road Of No Release' showcase the band's strengths and innovative spirit. Overall, the album revitalizes the band's appeal while attracting new fans. Discover the epic world of Blind Guardian’s At The Edge Of Time—listen now and experience their powerful new journey!

 An intentionally exaggerated bad film, where the aliens seem 'normal' and the 'normal' seem alien.

 The positive aspects of the film are completely nonexistent, which I consider one of the most aberrant things to hit cinemas in the last 15 years.

The review harshly criticizes Robert Rodriguez’s 1998 film The Faculty for its laughable plot and lack of entertainment value. Despite a decent cast, the film fails due to poor jokes, unclear storyline, and weak alien effects. The movie is described as an excessive bad film appealing poorly to younger audiences. Ultimately, it is recommended to be avoided. Discover why The Faculty is considered a cult bad movie or skip this sci-fi teen flick for better alien invasion stories.

 After a not-so-exciting start, the light turns back on and here returns the group of old.

 The concluding "The Books of Skelos" takes us back in time... a pure spectacle, like their metal.

Manilla Road’s 1990 album The Courts of Chaos marks a return to their epic and psychedelic metal roots after a less inspired previous release. Though it begins sluggishly with less engaging tracks, the album soon redeems itself with powerful compositions reflecting historic and dark themes. Standout songs like “Into The Courts Of Chaos” and “The Books Of Skelos” highlight the band's compositional skill and influence in the American heavy metal niche. Overall, a strong and important work confirming the band's legacy. Dive into Manilla Road’s legendary epic metal journey—listen to The Courts of Chaos and experience a true metal classic!

 "The album is enjoyable to listen to, without grand apotheosis except in two/three cases."

 "Virgin Steele maintains a level of adequacy that doesn’t quite suit the band."

Virgin Steele's 1982 self-titled debut album showcases a raw hard rock sound with early hints of their epic metal style. While not fully inspired, standout tracks like "Still In Love With You" and "Children Of The Storm" reveal the band's future strengths. The album remains enjoyable but reflects a band still finding their unique artistic direction. Discover the roots of Virgin Steele’s epic metal journey—listen to their raw 1982 debut now!

 "Roots of Eternity represents the roots of Manticora’s sound, still closely linked to Teutonic bands like Brainstorm and Gamma Ray but also influenced by Iced Earth."

 "Nothing new under the sun: stylistic choices already seen and heard in the past but arranged with quality, ensuring over 55 minutes of appreciable music."

Manticora's debut album Roots Of Eternity delivers well-crafted, melodic power metal influenced by Teutonic bands and Iced Earth. Despite lineup changes and some vocal shortcomings, the album showcases solid guitar work and strong compositions. Though stylistically familiar, it offers enjoyable melodies and notable experimentation in its mini-suites. Overall, a promising start with room for growth in future releases. Listen to Manticora's Roots Of Eternity and experience a quality melodic power metal debut with promising energy and musicianship!

 This great ability is still present in My Blueberry Nights, released in 2007.

 A film built on small scenes, sometimes even trivial but capable of moving with their simplicity, due to the excellent performance of the protagonists.

My Blueberry Nights marks Wong Kar-Wai’s first English-language film, featuring Norah Jones in a simple yet emotionally resonant story set in contemporary New York. Though less refined than some of his earlier work, it delivers heartfelt moments through strong performances and relatable characters. The film reflects a more commercial approach without sacrificing the director’s signature lyricism. Overall, it offers an enjoyable cinematic experience blending modern settings with classic Wong Kar-Wai sentiment. Discover Wong Kar-Wai’s heartfelt transition to Hollywood—watch My Blueberry Nights and experience a modern romantic journey.

 "Suffer no guilt is a great album, which could have been a masterpiece if the band hadn’t wanted to overdo it."

 "One of the few doom albums that truly manages to annoy with its six strings."

The Gates of Slumber’s 2006 album 'Suffer No Guilt' continues the raw, slow, and psychedelic doom metal style established in their debut. It features heavy, distorted guitar riffs and atmospheric instrumentals. While ambitious in length and scope, some tracks feel overly long, affecting overall pacing. Despite this, the album is praised as a great, selective masterpiece within the genre. Listen to 'Suffer No Guilt' to experience a raw and epic journey through authentic doom metal!

 Only wind, silence, lights, colors fading into the distance.

 Music in space, explorer of dreams, journey of a lifetime.
