Back in the ’80s, we had bands that claimed to be, “Loud, Rude and Aggressive”. Today it’s “Lewd, Crude and (apparently) perpetually enamoured”. Makes me wonder what people like Tipper Gore would think about today’s music. Bring it on Tipper, we won back then, we will stand tall for rock once again! Enough of that, […]
Here at CGCM, we love to help promote new and upcoming bands. October 18, 2021, is the day that I first heard of Kardang. Henning messaged me on Facebook asking if he could send me a song to see if I could play it on my radio show. I host the “Power Chord” here on […]
Turborider, the fifth album from the Finnish rockers Reckless Love, on AFM Records will be hitting the shelves and into the hands of the hungry fans on February 25th. Being the first new album since 2016’s InVader fans are wondering what to expect. They did release a single called “Loaded” back in 2020 with an […]
A Little Background: Boss Keloid are a band that released their first record back in 2010 called Angular Beef Lesson. Their latest coming out June 4 on Ripple Music continues the strange and bewildering titles called as it is Family The Smiling Thrush.

The Chronicle Heavy Metal is slowly but surely taking over the world. The latest nook this beloved music genre reared its head is, India. Traditionally, not a place one would expect to see the roots of this style flourish but here it is, nonetheless. Now, for the second time with a purpose. I said second […]
A little Passion Under The Covers One of the things I think everyone loves is a little Passion Under The Covers. Honestly, who doesn’t love that? One other thing these days is a pleasant surprise. A band releasing an E.P. that I knew about is just that… A surprise! It was a great shock to […]
About The Band: There seems to be no end to artists that are new to me. I, like many reading this, think I am well up on bands and artists within the rock/metal/prog genres, yet every few weeks I hear a new name to me that makes my ears shoot up. This time it is […]
Background: ADX are a new name on me. As there was no information with the stream that was sent I had to go googling to try and get some background about them. They are supposedly “speed metal” however on listening to the album they are more varied than that. The band originates from Paris, France. […]
