Третий сольный альбом Slash - бывшего гитариста Guns N 'Roses и второй студийный альбом с Myles Kennedy и The Conspirators был выпущен 16 сентября 2014 года.

Musically SHADOWBANE’s „Post Apocalyptic Power Metal“ is positioned between melodic US power metal und raw teutonic steel with dystopic lyrics. Definitely outgrown the demo sound, the mostly fast songs profit from a contemporary production – without leaving any doubt in the musical rootage within the power metal of the 80s and 90s. Besides the powerful yet melodic vocals the sound is dominated by two notable and equally shaping guitarists with a lot of thrashy riffs and harmonic melodies.

Jeff Scott Soto - one of today's premier rock frontmen and vocalists - and a union of hotshot young musicians bring you a slamming blend of melody and muscle in some of the freshest power metal to surface in years present. Together they are SOTO, and their debut album, "Inside The Vertigo", will blow your mind away. SOTO is comprised of Jeff's most current solo band: Jorge Salan (lead guitar), BJ (keyboards, guitars), David Z (bass) and Edu Cominato (drums). Soto adds: "These guys come from different parts of the world and bring their own influence to make this band very special. From the U.S. to Europe to South America, we have an exciting mix of style and prestige that keeps us all on our toes."

Two of hard rock’s most notable figures have partnered up for a new project. Iconic vocalist /guitarist Michael Sweet of Stryper and legendary guitarist George Lynch of Lynch Mob/Dokken have teamed up to form a new supergroup Sweet & Lynch. Joining them on this new musical adventure is bassist James Lomenzo and drummer Brian Tichy. The band will be releasing their debut album Only To Rise on January 23rd 2015 in Europe and January 27th, 2015 in North America via Frontiers Music Srl.

This is possibly on the list of best rock albums of 2014, and that's no exaggeration. Starset sure has come a long way to making their first debut album. They sure got noticed very well on the radio with songs such as "My Demons" and "Carnivore", which boosted their popularity very vastly. Two of the best radio songs of 2013 "My Demons" as well as Gemini Syndrome's "Stardust" sure helped both of these bands out, as botch showed off their album.

"Edge Of The Earth" второй полноформатный студийный альбом британской метал-группы из Рединга SYLOSIS, выпущенный в 2011 году на лейбле Nuclear Blast.

SYLOSIS are a forward thinking UK thrash metal band. Hailing from Reading, SYLOSIS set out to create a modern, epic new take on the old school thrash metal blueprint. The bands sound is comprised of fast, aggressive riffing, thunderous drumming, intricate guitar lines, shredding solos, fierce vocals and haunting ambience.
SYLOSIS’ debut album “Conclusion Of An Age” - set for release October 24th via Nuclear Blast - is a mammoth display of how modern metal should be done. The album twists and turns in every direction, one moment brutally aggressive, then blissfully epic the next. Lyrically, the album deals with many subjects but although this is by no means a concept album, the most prevalent theme is the idea of a struggle between mankind and the planet and how inevitably, nature will reclaim the earth. With climate change being a growing concern for all, the album really strikes a nerve.

A mere four years have passed since Sylosis' inception and they’re already on the cusp of releasing their third record – Monolith; an ambitious concept album from the young English quartet.
The almost 20 minute epic closer may very well be the jewel in the crown of Monolith; imagine the sound of the four horsemen of the apocalypse meets the undead spirit of 80’s thrash. Here’s a composition that weaves energetic and progressive technical chapters with delicate and emotive melodic tangents; complete with a two and a half minute interval, naturally. Beautifully innovative and covertly stylish, this truly is balls-to-the-wall metal in 2012. If you’ve never heard of Sylosis, you’re very, very late to the party; this is one of the greatest British metal bands of our time. For Christ’s sake.

Hailing from the UK, SYLOSIS is back with their fourth Nuclear Blast album “Dormant Heart”. It comes in with 12 tracks and is just under an hour of brutal and aggressive listening time.
“Dormant Heart” is not dormant by any stretch of the imagination. It is hard, it is aggressive, and it is a truth. The melody, the harmony, the impressiveness SYLOSIS has as a band; it is all here in “Dormant Heart”. This is without a doubt one of the best of the year.

Word Gets Around is the debut album by Welsh rock band Stereophonics. The album reached number six in the UK Albums Chart and is one of three Stereophonics albums not to reach number one.

Just Enough Education to Perform is the third studio album by Welsh rock band Stereophonics. Released on 11 April 2001, the album topped the UK Albums Chart with 140,000 copies sold.

UK vocalist Shaun Escoffery, whose classic hits "Space Rider" and "Days Like This" are enjoyed by club goers worldwide, is back with a stunning new album which combines sheer gospel-tinged power - as on the single "Nature's Call" - with soulful subtlety. With an impressive career in musical theatre - from the Lion King to Tommy and Les Miserables - Shaun has won many critical accolades, including an Olivier Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. But he now returns to his own solo recording career with what many critics consider to be his finest album, "In The Red Room".

Второй альбом метал группы, объединившая под своим таинственным названием Soen известных талантливых музыкантов. Альбом открывает очень короткий инструментальный трек "Komenco", в котором звучат в основном этнические ударные инструменты и плавно переходит в "Tabula Rasa", где группа раскрывает себя с более тяжелым риффами и эмоциональным исполнением вокальных партий. Треки "Ennui" и "Void" пожалуй самые тяжелые с ярко выраженными басовыми партиями.

Японское издание дебютного альбома прогрессив-метал группы, состоящей из различных громких экстремальных музыкантов этого направления: шведского барабанщика Martin Lopez (ex-Opeth, Amon Amarth), американского басиста Steve DiGiorgio (Sadus, Testament, Death, Iced Earth), вокалиста Joel Ekelof (Willowtree) и гитариста Kim Platbarzdis. Альбом получился ритмичный и мелодичный, соединяя инструментальное мастерство каждого из членов группы.
