_{“Morph” is the third album from KrashKarma and it was released on 7th September by Splitnail Records. KrashKarma is a duo based in Los Angeles and it features Ralf Dietal on vocals and guitar and Niki Skistimas on drums and vocals. The band fuses a number of genres into a great sound and initially started as a four-piece but quickly shifted to the current format. The track “Stranded” was included on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 21st September.}

_{Satan were one of the iconic group of early New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) bands and possessed a name that no doubt did a great deal to endear the metal genre to the so called moral majority! Their 1983 debut album “Court In The Act” is often referred to as one of the pivotal records of the era – perhaps more in hindsight rather than due to its impact at the time. “Cruel Magic” is the band’s third album since reforming in 2011 and it was released on 7th September by Metal Blade Records. The track “Death Knell For A King” was included on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 7th September.}

_{“Purgatorio” is the third album from Swedish band Manimal (not to be confused with the French death metal band of the same name) and it was released on 7th September via AFM Records. The band name always reminds me of the awful TV series from the 80’s, but thankfully the music is of a much better quality and this is actually the second album recommendation that I’ve posted for this band. The single “Manimalized” was included on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 17th August and the title track is on the Show this week.}
