Battlemaster - Spells, Boots, & Portals (2010)

This quick and most recent offering from Battlemaster is a faster, heavier fondling session and the foreplay before the penetration that is the full-length album that will come. Soon. A crowd hit, "Cursed Boots Of Perpetual Dancing," will have you kicking up dirt like a pit bull and ready to crash into the next JNCO gorilla with long hair over and over. It has a rumbling guitar that goes into a frenzied tornado of black thrash and rolling drums to keep you dancing for four straight minutes, if you can stop there. "Total Aboleth Funeral" has you envisioning an ocean of dead squid-like beasts laid out to be cast into the wind, and "Portal Escape" keeps the speed at the tops while those dancing boots follow you closely. It's short, sweet, and probably the best thing you'll hear for a long while.

Battlemaster - Warthirsting & Winterbound (2007)

Richmond, Virginia has become a hotbed of shining gold heavy metal in the last few years with bands like Inter Arma, Bastard Sapling, Cannabis Corpse and Battlemaster. The years-anticipated full-length this band put out lived up to everyone's expectations and blew them away quite easily; it's got speed, it's got heavy, it's got funny (if you pay attention to the lyrics, vocals or both there's great payoff), the drumming is out of this world and you'll feel like you're hearing Enslaved, Withered, Immortal and Deströyer 666 trying to come up with a supergroup formula but Battlemaster's already got what you want the way you want it. One of the best metal releases of 2007, Richmond metal history; it is the record this band needed to get out there. Get this, buy it if you can, and for the real experience, of course: see them live.
