    The Beat Returns – Axxon

    The South African metal scene is often criticised for being too samey and lacking the innovation that has characterised the (admittedly, much larger) European and American scenes. Trends come and go, with bandwagons often full to overflowing with groups hoping to become the "next big thing" on everyones lips and it takes a certain amount of vision to fly in the face of this to make the music that you want to hear

    VOICE OF ROCK Streaming Radio – SA Metal and Rock

    M4A’s Nitro-Mecha-Penguin recently had the privilege of conducting an interview with Voice of Rock CEO and Founder, Frank Riester.  This article followed: Most metalheads hailing from South Africa are frustrated with the fact that there are no radio stations dedicated to metal and hard rock music in our country.  Long gone are the days of Barney Simon’s

    Rock the River Retrospective

    We set out from Bellville in the heat of day on Friday. Odd, I know, but hell, the gates opened on Friday, and we had nothing keeping us home.

    “The Soaring Underbelly”, Thoughts on the Cape Town Metal Scene

Below he shares his views on the Cape Town metal scene, and more exclusively, bands

    Crow Black Sky – Pantheion Album Review

    If there’s something that the South African metal scene is lacking right now, it’s originality. Most new bands are playing some hybrid of Dimmu Borgir meets Suicide Silence (leaning a bit too far one way or the other usually) and quite frankly, it has gotten pretty boring. It takes guts to push a less homogeneous ”crowd-pleasing” style
