The third year of our blog has been running for a few weeks now. And we still haven’t posted an interview with James Delbridge, singer and guitarist of the Canadian metal band Lycanthro. That has to change as soon as possible – especially since there is new music from our friend’s camp. André: Hi James, […]

English version below Es ist immer wieder schön, wenn neue Bands quasi aus dem Nichts auf der Bildfläche erscheinen, um einen gleich mit ihrem ersten Release komplett zu begeistern. Dies ist vor einigen Wochen Æternia aus Siegen gelungen – ihre Debüt-EP The Quest gehört meiner Meinung nach zum Besten, was in diesem Jahr in unserem […]
We are very happy to present you for the second time an interview with the Croatian epic doom metal band Elusive God on our blog. The first time we talked to them was in January 2021, followed by two more contributions from the band for our big Manilla Road Special and an obituary for Eric […]

When Aidan and I founded the Epic Metal Blog in 2020, there were three main reasons: We wanted to establish a platform where we could offer our favourite music a small stage to introduce bands close to our hearts to our readers without any commercial ulterior motive. We wanted to have the freedom to decide […]

That’s because this blog would never have come into being without the music of some bands. One of these bands is undoubtedly Spell from Canada, […]
English version below Bereits vor gut einem Monat haben wir euch auf unserem Blog BIWO vorgestellt, eine Newcomer-Band aus dem Ruhrpott.
