Christian was a reviewer here at Metal Express Radio, based out of Würzburg, Germany. His brother introduced him to Heavy Metal. Ronnie James Dio’s Holy Diver made a big impression on him right from the beginning, and he has kept bangin' from the age of ten. He also plays the guitar from time to time.

October 23, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
Let’s begin this review with a little question and answer thing. Where to start – where to end? Uh, ah – that’s not easy! First of all, what’s the name of the artist? Seree Lee. …READ MORE

ELVENKING – The Scythe

September 14, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
Like Paris Hilton might say, “This is HOT.” Pardon Ms. Hilton (you’re a ‘#*’!), and this is hotter than hot — extraordinarily hot!!! Elvenking from Italy combine Folk, Hard Rock, and Heavy Metal like it …READ MORE

GRAVEYARD – Graveyard

September 10, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
Wow, wait a minute this must be some kind of time warp – the seventies and early eighties not dead yet at all?! Graveyard recently heaved up their namesake debut and Psychedelic music may not …READ MORE

SHATTERPOINT – Dead Precedence

September 4, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
This might be a very one-minded point of view: Thrash Metal is a genre dominated by “dinosaurs” like Slayer, or the never dying (seemingly never minding which lineup climbs to the stage) Sepultura these days. …READ MORE

BROKEN DAGGER – Chain Of Command

July 17, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
After a few minutes of lending your ears to this production, you might come up with the following thought… Somebody must have treated this production like an “unwanted child”! Take some care of it, but …READ MORE

AWAKE – Illumination

June 15, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
With Illumination, British Prog-standouts Awake are in for their first album under a whole new moniker. From the years 2000 to 2006, the band was known as Humanity and offered an internationally well-acclaimed debut in …READ MORE

MTB – How Long [Reissue]

June 8, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
To say Michael Thompson has been around, would be an understatement of truth. The guitarist, hailing in from New York, has been a six string sidekick for various legend-like musicians such as Joe Cocker, Celine …READ MORE

BLOODBOUND – Book Of The Dead

May 25, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
“Book of the Dead”, “Sign of The Devil”, “Lord of Battle” … these track titles may tell you a lot about the whole record. In essence: You might expect no surprise at all here. On …READ MORE

ENGINE OF PAIN – I Am Your Enemy

January 26, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
Anybody up for some Thrash? Engine Of Pain, a surging band from the Netherlands, promise tons of moshpit sounds on their most recent long player I Am Your Enemy. The likely named opener starts off …READ MORE

Album Reviews

ESSENCE OF SORROW – Reflections Of The Obscure

January 10, 2007 Christian Mannsbart Leave a comment
What’s the face of Power Metal these days? A seven foot muscle-packed guy with a fancy hairdo (irocesian style, maybe?) wielding a battle axe shaped guitar on stage, the skin of his ham-like shoulders bearing …READ MORE
