Powerplay 177 July 2015
INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
Rapidly rising to the top of the power metal pile, German riff masters Powerwolf prove that they are 'Blessed & Possessed'. Symyphony X blast us into the 'Underworld', while Joe Satiani hits us with a 'Shockwave Supernova' and we take a stunning ride with Virgin Steel on their first new album in five years, 'Nocturnes Of Hellfire & Damnation'. Also this month we talk to the reformed Rock Goddess and the returning Frank Dimino, plus the delightful Caterina Nix tells us all about working with Timo Tolkki on his fantastic new project, Chaos Magic. There are also interviews with Art Of Anarchy, Triaxis, Wilson, Graveworm, Burning Point and youngsters Next To None.
