Beware Of The Fakers!!!
It has come to our attention that certain people are disguising their blog site as a “Kosher Metal” blog site. For example “One Of Those Kosher Metal Blogs” - this site has NOTHING to do with us.
This is our ONLY blog site, if we get another one then we will let you know.
Just thought we’d clear that up.

Pick Of The Day: NUCLEAR
Today’s pick hails from Chile (same place as Tom Araya of Slayer)….they are called Nuclear (or NuClear according to some). We play them here on Kosher Metal but we feel compelled to make sure you know about them. These guys are just fucking awesome…plain and simple. We can only hope that they tour the USA at some point. They definitely would gain tons of fans if they were able to...

ANA KEFR: Panama City Beach Show Review
Progressive metal kings.
Ever seen someone play a saxophone during a metal show? Yeah, me neither. But with Ana Kefr anything goes, alternating between beautifully haunting and aggressive musical attacks. The juxtaposition of these two styles serve to further highlight just how talented members of Ana Kefr are as songwriters as every moment is an emotional punch.
It is a little hard to find the...
