In recent years we’ve seen a resurgence of classic heavy metal, so why not reach further and go back to the days of hard rock? This was the assumption made by the Richmond, Virginia-based Hagstone members. Anyway, the musical DNA of this newly formed group is very diverse, from the classics of hard rock precisely, […]

Review: Τέλμα/Telma – Ανθρωποβόρος (full length, 2024) | Doom Metal
When it comes to debut albums that come out smashing seemingly out of nowhere, you won’t easily find a stronger one in recent years than Telma‘s Ανθρωποβόρος. The Greek band has been slowly forging their album since 2017, when their track Ξίφη Στραμμένα στο Φοίνικα appeared in the Art Against Censorship compilation, definitely turning some […]
Review: Grendel’s Sÿster – Katabasis into the Abaton / Abstieg in die Traumkammer (Full album, 2023) | Epic metal
The long-awaited debut full-length album from Grendel’s Sÿster is finally here and we’re beyond proud to present it to you. After two fantastic EPs that build up anticipation in the epic heavy metal scene, the three-member band from Stuttgart reminded us to “love metal and hate fascism” (a statement that needs to be heard strongly […]
Review: Cipó Fogo – ‘Born Enslaved’ (Full album, 2024) | Crossover
After having an exciting peak at their latest work (although it was already uploaded by the band at that moment in full to listen) with the Distopia single featured at ABMN early this month, today we are happy to also present the rest of this mini album comprised of 5 songs by the crossover thrash ensemble […]
Review: The Dirty Looks – “Second Guessing” demo & two live extracts| Proto-punk
Manchester has recently welcomed a new proto-punk project devised by five femmes: The Dirty Looks. In May they released their most recent demo, and we have been meaning to introduce you all to them ever since. The day has come, and we thought to bring not only Second Guessing, the above-mentioned one-single demo, but […]
Review: Ammonoid – “Pierce The Veil” (Official animated video, 2024) | Doom, prog.
One of our main functions at AFS and ABMN is to help foster, nurture and reveal new bands under our specific musical purviews that take a stand in the battle against oppression and exploitation. And it is a great pleasure when one of these is of such high quality as today’s feature, the US project […]
Review: Lowen – Najang Bah Divhayeh Mazandaran (Single, 2024) | Progressive
Time and time again Fortune shows itself to be a fickle and harsh mistress, but also a very sarcastic one. When we contacted the incredible Lowen a few weeks ago for permission to upload their amazing new single, “Najang Bah Divhayeh Mazandaran“, we never expected that the day of the upload would be precisely the […]
Review: Hilary Hutchinson – Morningstar (Full EP, 2022) | Rock, alternative metal
At Antifascist Steel (and ABMN for harsher music) we are proud of the broadness of artists we bring. Fighting gatekeeping and helping artists experiment as much as they want with their work are part of the struggle against oppression that we stand for, after all. And it’s in this spirit that today we bring Morningstar, […]
