WOMEN WHO MOSH WEDNESDAY - JILL JANUS OF HUNTRESS

Going strong since 2007, Huntress is a Heavy Metal band to keep your eyes and ears fixed on. The music is catchy and relentless in spirit. This is evinced by multiple releases, the latest being this year's "Starbound Beast". Having collaborated with legends like Lemmy Kilmister (Motorhead) and appearing on this year's Mayhem Festival, things are only looking up for this band.

Jill Janus makes for one helluva front lady. Her voice is raw and filled with power, even scathing at times. She sings and screams like the pro she is. The Huntress is a dangerous woman, as beautiful as she is lethal. Watch the videos below, give a good listen to the music, and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Her live presence is also strong, commanding the stage with a ringing voice and a flowing cape trailing her every move. The band itself also executes the music with skill. Catch them on their upcoming tour with Danzig this month or with Killswitch Engage in October / November.

NEW MUSIC TUESDAY - JULY 2ND

Another week, another slew of new albums to check out. As usual here are three that caught my attention.

First up is Swedish Melodic Death Metallers/Thrashers Darkane and their newest release. Darkane is back with their 6th release and their second for original singer Lawrence Mackrory. He kinda sounds like Trivium’s Matt Heafy to me with a thrashy clean voice. But whatever this is some seriously solid, seriously intense slice of metal. Pick up “The Sinister Supremacy” today.

Brutal Death Metallers Autopsy have returned again. “The Headless Ritual” is the legendary band’s second album since reuniting in 2009. And as expected, this stuff is heavy. Massive and crushing like a boulder. Oops too much hyperbole. Anyways this is exactly what you’d expect from these guys and if this is your thing, support these guys as they continue to bring the suffering.
