Audrey Horne – Youngblood Review
Members of Enslaved and Sahg don’t always do hard rock side projects, but when they do, it fucking kills! Norwegian rock hasn’t sounded this good since….well, ever. Audrey Horne is the real deal and Steel Druhm is here to give you the spiel.
Nightfall – Cassiopeia Review
Greek genre benders Nighfall are back and this time, they really mean business. METAL business! Be it doom, black, death or power, they try to cram it in this here album like 60 cats in a suitcase. This is almost as fun as that suitcase too!
Paradox – Tales of the Weird Review
Paradox has been knocking around for ages, with few albums resulting. Steel Druhm is here to fill you in on the latest from these Germanic mavens of melo-thrash. Can one of metal’s least prolific bands sway the nostalgic metal heart of the Steel One?
Flotsam & Jetsam – Ugly Noise Review
Flotsam & Jetsam is back to follow up their fairly successful 2010 opus, The Cold. Steel Druhm wanted to see more of the same, but he may have to learn to live with disappointment. Lots of it! At least the title is accurate.

Things You Might Have Missed 2012: Nightmare – Burden of God
Steel Druhm will never be your beast of burden. Bourbon maybe, but never burden! Anywho, you might have missed a pretty nifty power metal album called Burden of God by French act Nightmare. Steel doesn’t want that to happen.
Things You Might Have Missed 2012: Oceans of Time – Faces
Even the mighty Steel Druhm needs help sometimes and without the help of you, the loyal AMG readers, he would have missed out on this little power-prog gem. Steel Druhm hates being helped!!
