Obtest – Auka Seniems Dievams

Already in existence since late 1992, OBTEST have a seemingly long discography. Nevertheless, this is my very first contact to the band, hence expect no comparison with any…

Astarte – Quod Superius Sicut Inferius

Quod Superius Sicut Inferius is ASTARTE’s third offering. My surprise came with the very first track: these Greek gathering of female souls (formerly known as LLOTH) seem to…
