Alkaline Trio – “This Addiction”
Alk3 return to us with their first album since 2008’s “Agony and Irony”, an album which, as previously mentioned on the site, divided a lot of fans with its pop rock heavily weighted on the side of pop. The band promised back in 09 that the new album would be a return to their punk [...]
Download announce new bands
The time of year has arrived where festival headliners ruffle their feathers and show their cards to wet people’s appetites. Until last year it would be fair to say that Download had the lions share of attention with the rock and metal fans, however the success of Sonisphere last summer has led to a lot [...]

Necromag has had its eyes and ears firmly set on London band The Defiled for quite a while with track “The Resurrectionists” on heavy rotation in our offices.
In September The Defiled released debut EP, 1888 based around the time of Jack The Ripper’s bloody reign in Whitechapel area of Victorian London (which has [...]
Bayonetta
Recently I had the pleasure of being in control of a leggy cat-suited brunette beauty in the shape of gun wielding witch Bayonetta.
The fast paced combat against wave after wave of monstrous angel creatures hits a curious note wherein the game essentially looks like a total negative image of Devil May Cry series which was [...]

Necromag Recommends: Katatonia – Tonights Decision
