Bioplan – ‘Epipath & Ocular’ (Layered Reality Productions)

Bioplan – ‘Epipath & Ocular’ (Layered Reality Productions)

Posted by | Jun 2, 2020 | ,

Jonny B is a big fan of the level of effort that bands are putting into special edition releases of their albums these days. Gone are the days where the best you could hope for was a couple of bonus tracks or maybe even a bonus disk, now bands are getting really creative to deliver some pretty unique special editions! The bigger, well established bands have the money behind them to get pretty lavish with theirs, we’ve seen big box editions, sex toy sets (yes, multiple occasions!) and even a bespoke N64 as rewards for those who go all out for deluxe editions. But you don’t have to spend lots of money to get a pretty unique special edition as Bioplan has shown with the collection release of the two EPs ‘Epipath’ and ‘Ocular’.

Wayward may be a new band – they’re a side project of two of the members of German death metallers Deathrite – but they are very much of the old school philosophy, as the title of this, their just-released debut album should very strongly indicate. Yes, these four hallions from Leipzig are seeking to epitomise the punk-fuelled rock ‘n’ roll spirit that Lemmy and his crüe brought to an unsuspecting Überverse back in 1979, with a collection of nine no-nonsense heavy metal homages that neither take no prisoners nor ask for any in return.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK – ALESTORM

Posted by | May 31, 2020 | , ,

Despite the current lockdown, we are still receiving a healthy bundle of submissions for our coveted ‘Video Of The Week’ title. While some artists are trying to find new ways of visually interpreting their songs, others obviously have had the guts of their filming completed in advance of the global quarantine, with the finishing touches being added in isolated post-production. This week’s selection once again sees a balance of these two approaches… although, to be honest, we are starting to run out of the latter, with videos filmed against the backdrop of isolation and social distancing becoming more and more the “new normal”…
