One On One With The GRIM 1

Imagine in Testament and Exodus crash landed on a desert island with nothing but a copy of Zelda, and a Nintendo console that somehow works on a desert island. This describes the youthful thrash styling of Archangel A.D.  Soaring vocals, imaginative lyrics and epic guitars fuel their new single "Eventide," which was released in September on their bandcamp. So, it's not exactly a new new single, but due to the a backlog of horror business, I'm finally releasing this five-month old interview now. Definitely be on the look out for these young bucks, who are eager to play out far beyond the lone star state. Eventide by Archangel A.D. HELL-O thrashers, how's life?  Edward Vera, drums : We’re great! Ready to get back to playing shows after a short hiatus and getting ready for the release of our single!    Tell me about your new single "Eventide". It strikes me as a sort of Testament-stranded on a desert island type of thrash metal song, in the best way.

The Babyface of Black Metal, Hellripper's James McBain James McBain is the birth name of the one man army known as HELLRIPPER, hailing from the Scottish Highlands. This project sounds like the speed and darkness of Bathory collided with Mot ö rhead's punk attitude, glistening with all the glorious satanic sleaze of vintage Venom.   McBain has kept the riffs a blazing on full steam since 2015. He's produced two EPs, one full length, and splits with Barbatos, Bathsheva, Acid Cross and Kriegg in five years.   Hellripper's most recent EP, Black Arts & Alchemy , has turned devil horns with its rambunctious styling. Part of their growing popularity must be due to McBain signal boosting his fans on social media. His Instagram is quick to show off off fan submissions of their Hellripper merch. Take note, up and coming bands! This is how you grow your audience, and win black hearts and twisted minds. Black Arts & Alchemy EP by Hellripper   I recently c
