If you are a fan of classic metal, you need to check out these underdogs from Arlington, Texas. Slaves Wage has been honing its craft since 2004 and it really shows on their latest album Heaven or Hell. As a teen, I loved experimenting with the speed on my record player, noticing that my favorite Saint vinyl still sounded great sped up on 45 rpm mode (other than the chipmunk vocals!) In the same way, if you took a Place of Skulls record and sped it up, you would still get all

In late 2018 Roxx Records silently dropped a beast of a melodic metal hard rock album by Through the Clouds. Not familiar you say? It was entitled Blinded Minds; perhaps you saw the lyric video? No? I thought not and I’m not quite sure why. Powerful vocals with melody, grit and muscle; delivered by Paulo Lima (who has a voice somewhere between Graham Bonnet (Rainbow, UFO, Impellitteri, Alcatraz), Gary Barden (Michael Schenker Group) and early John Fogerty… there is video of

Primal is an LA band that may be of interest to our readers due to the involvement of Vengeance/ Deliverance shredder Glenn Rogers. They play straight ahead classic heavy metal, no apologies, occasionally straying into speed metal or thrash, due to the dual guitarists spontaneously bursting into fiery solos. Drummer Jorge Iacobellis used to play with Rogers in Hirax. (V8, Logos) Argentinian singer Alberto Zamarbide's melodic, almost hoarse vocals fall somewhere between Swiss

2019 CD/LP Reissue 1985. Philadelphia. It’s hard to believe Search & Destroy is almost 35 years old. I suspect for some of the early fans of Christian metal this may have been an album that held a special place in your heart, but may have been one you have not visited often since those early days. Some will remember the Magdalene Records Limited Edition re-release on CD back in 2000, but until Warlord was released in 2016, most of us probably hadn’t really spent much time wit

Roxx Records is very excited to announce our next and very special Limited Edition pressings this time coming from classic Christian rockers Philadelphia. Philadelphia were one of the premiere Christian rock bands in the 80’s releasing 2 classic and long out of print albums (Tell The Truth and Search & Destroy) before calling it a day. Then once again reappearing in 2016 to release a rerecorded version of their never released third album (Warlord) We are very excited to

Those familiar with Heaven's Metal magazine over the decades know we've never been content to sit in our church pew and not interact with the world around us. The fact is that the world out there is hurting and needs christians to show love to them. You may even remember our series "What So and So Says," where we conversed with many a mainstream band about matters of metal and faith. Our fearless leader Doug Van Pelt published a couple volumes of those interviews in Rock Star
