First Hammers....now Crescent Shield and Antiquus. I am very impressed with the latter two as of recently.
Obviously, enough has been said of The Hammers.

Yeah it really is a cool pure blooded metal album. This review did the trick for me.

I know people around here tend to be a little less enthusiastic about the Pharaoh album than I am, but I dig the hell out of it. A definitel top 10 entry.

Yeah, me too. Getting there anyway...Spent an assload of money on ridiculous beer for the new year. Going out with a bang.
Currently drinking a Southern Tier Unearthly Imp IPA...one of my favs.
Great review. I agree with most of it, including the production part. It does tend to be a bit low - but the sound itself is fine...just the volume. No complaints other than the next album sounding loud as fuck, lol...but I have PLENTY of albums that are a lot worse.
Not to mention their signing of While Heaven Wept.
I forgot about that.....jesus fuckin krist.
Amazing.

Guys, check out ONWARD- Michael Grant of Crescent Sheilds former band.
I'll upload some samples if no one has heard them.

Crescent Shield is pretty good. I think JayKeeley would spooge himself over this band, but I've been wrong before.

Crescent Shield is a solid band, nothing more. Although I like where their heads are at, the songs just aren't that memorable (and I've listed to the disc a half dozen times).
Antiquus, after one listen, doesn't seem to warrant a second.
Pharaoh is another band whose songs fail to really grab hold. I own both discs, but can't say I reach for either one very often.

Be still, O wand'rer!
Cruz del Sur is easily the best label for 2006 (in metal, of course)
Antiquus and Crescent Shield are in my personal top 3, the new Hammers of Misfortune is a descent album (although I think is not better than August Engine) and I am waiting the new Pharaoh to check it out.
