THE WAR IS OVER… IT IS DONE!

With sadness in our hearts, we hereby inform you that we have decided to pull the plug on Hail of Bullets. The patient had been suffering from illness for a few years already. We thought we had cut out the disease a few years ago, but apparently the tumor was more widespread than we had expected.
There are no immediate plans to resurrect the corpse…

PS: personal messages/questions about this situation will not be answered. This is it, and both you and us will have to deal with that...

Review + Exclusive Track Premiere | Echelon - The Brimstone Aggrandizement

For an album steeped in old school death metal tropes, there is nothing here which sounds forced or false. Yes, there are obvious homages, but these are done on purpose. Echelon have delivered an album which is unashamedly old school and it works wonderfully well. - By Martyn Coppack

The news has been spreading around, but on the off chance it's been missed, as of Thursday 8/11/16 Brutal Existence Radio has gone off the air. This show was born onto that station and I have no idea if I will ever consider bringing it back on a different station. In the mean time, I will keep this page up and running and continue to post about bands I love, or bands I discover or just music news and stuff in general. A huge thanks to everyone that has ever listened, interacted or just liked the page and/or show over the last 6 years. It means the world to me. ~ The Heretic
