Californian power metal band Helion Prime released their second album, “Terror of the Cybernetic Space Monster”, through AFM Records on 31st August. I’d almost post a recommendation just to get mentioning that awesome title, but in reality this is an album well worth checking out for the nine tracks that it features! The title track is actually a seventeen minute epic, but I still might include it on a Show sometime! Instead, I included “A King Is Born” on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 31st August.

Monte Pittman is probably best known as being Madonna’s guitarist for almost twenty years, but he is also a very accomplished solo artist and on 31st August he released two new albums through Metal Blade Records. “Between The Space” is a heavy album, whilst “Better or Worse” is an acoustic album. Pittman provides the vocals and plays all the instruments on both albums. I included the track “Depth Perception” from “Better or Worse” on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 31st August.

To most rock or blues fans, certainly those on this island, the name Taste is synonymous with the late 60’s and the legendary Rory Gallagher (although the band did reform in the late 90’s). However, in this case, Taste are a Swedish band formed by two brothers in 2009 and “Moral Decay” is their second album, which was released on 31st August by AOR Heaven. The track “Alive” was included on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 31st August.
