Due to several reasons our website (www.izegrim.nl) has been under maintenance for some time.

During that time our focus shifted towards our Myspace-site. However, judging the amount of hits we get on this .NL-domain, we've put it back online with a new design !

As from today this site will be updated again, to keep you informed about our schemes, propaganda, our upcoming campaigns and many more.

Immediately after our adventures in Eastern Europe (gigs in Roemania and Bulgaria) we went into the studio with producer Arno Zuidgeest to shoot the first official videoclip in the long history of Izegrim. Its a clip of the song "Point of no Return" taken from our MCD.

NECKBREAKER (DE)
Die holländischen Thrasher von IZEGRIM wollen wohl trotz Line-Up Veränderung ihre Fans nicht allzu lange auf ein neues Werk warten lassen und schieben so immerhin eine EP in die Verkaufsregale.

Nach dem Weggang von Sängerin Krisz hat die Band es sich einfach gemacht und Bassistin Marloes das Mikro vor die Nase gestellt. Nun darf sie also zeigen was sie aus ihren Stimmbändern herausholen kann ... und das ist nicht wenig. Vier Stücke haben den Weg auf die EP gefunden. Mit dem Titelsong "Point Of No Return" und den Stücken "No Place Like Home" und End Of Time" gibt es drei Neukompositionen die es durchaus in sich.

Giftiger Thrash Metal wie man ihn von IZEGRIM kennt. Beruhigend ist vor allem die Sangeskunst von Marloes die der von Krisz durchaus ebenbürtig ist. Als viertes Stück hat es der Klassiker "Angel Of Demise" vom "Guidelines for Genocide" Album nochmal zu Veröffentlichungsehren geschafft und in dieser Neueinspielung kommt das Stück deutlich intensiver rüber.

Gute EP die Appetit auf mehr, sprich auf einen neuen Langspieler macht. Der Weggang von Krisz konnte gut aufgefangen werden und so stehen die Ampeln für IZEGRIM weiter auf grün. (Tutti) Bewertung: 7,5 / 10

QUINTESSENCE (NL)
Zutphen’s Izegrim continues their tradition of alternating full lengths with EPs with the release of “Point Of No Return”, their second release on Rusty Cage Records. My last exposure to the band was at the time of the release of their debut “Guidelines To Genocide”. Apart from changes in the line-up and the 2 releases that came out since, the band still sounds pretty recognizable. The Thrash Metal still thrives, although it’s clear that time has strengthened the band sound and song-writing ability.

Excellent groove and rhythm are joined by cool melodies, and in ‘End Of Time’ and ‘Angel Of Demise’ one can even detect traces of the epic influence of a band such as Bolt Thrower. All four tracks on the EP are cool Thrashing anthems, though the structure of the songs is somewhat predictable. Still, if you value the band for their ability to groove, “Point Of No Return” will not disappoint you!

Net nadat ’Tribute To Totalitarianism’ in de winkelschappen kwam te liggen, stapten zangeres Kristien Dros en drummer Joep Van Leeuwen uit Izegrim. Gelukkig is de Zutphense band er niet een om bij de pakken neer te gaan zitten en zo werd Van Leeuwen vervangen door Ivo Maarhuis en nam bassiste Marloes Voskuil de plek achter de microfoon over. ‘Point Of No Return’ is het eerste levensteken van de nieuwe line-up (die wordt gecompleteerd door de gitaristen Jeroen Tichgelaer en Bart Van Ginkel) en wat is dit een vet schijfje geworden zeg! De wisselingen in de band hebben Izegrim in elk geval geen windeieren gelegd.

Deze mini CD bevat drie nieuwe nummers en een herbewerking van de track ‘Angel Of Demise’ die oorspronkelijk te vinden was op de niet meer verkrijgbare ‘Guidelines For Genocide’ CD uit 2002. Het constant “on the road” zijn, heeft haar vruchten duidelijk afgeworpen want Izegrim is een (h)echte eenheid geworden en ‘Point Of No Return’ is dan ook een flinke stap vooruit. Het vele touren bracht de band reeds een hoop welwillende zieltjes, maar dat aantal zou zo luisterend naar deze MCD wel eens flink op kunnen gaan lopen. Izegrim is een vette deathrash act die met dit precisie bombardement alle concurrentie opzij vaagt. Ik kijk al uit naar een nieuwe langspeler.

Besides the very well-known thrash combo's out of Holland, there are also some others that will be knocking on the door; Izegrim is one of them. Former vocalist Kristien left the band and Marloes (also bass) picked up the vocals and she does that with style. With this blond grunter at the wheel there is similarities with Arch Enemy. To let the world know they are still alive, they release this 4-track mini CD.

I must say that I'm impressed. Not only by Marloes's vocals, but also by the songs. Good balanced thrash songs, well arranged and sometimes very catchy. The mini CD starts with "Angel of Demise", not a new written song, but a re-recorded track from their album 'Guidelines for Genocide'. I must admit that the song sounds better and has more balls. The three new songs are leaving nothing to be desired; Izegrim is back and I'm looking forward to a new complete album.

This Dutch band - Bart (guitar), Ivo (drums), Jeroen (guitar) és Marloes (vocals, bass) – was formed back in 1996. They have quite a lot of releases - „1997” promo 1997, „Most Evil” demo 1998, „Bird Of Prey” EP 1999, „2002” promo, and „Guidelines For Genocide” CD 2002, „New World Order” EP 2005, „Tribute To Totalitarianism” CD 2008- and gigs behind their back. They’re playing on the field of thrash/death metal, and the female vocals may strange at first. Take a listen to it.

The title track opens with heavy crushing, the technical parts fit the typical base well, and Marco brings raspy, growling vocals to the dynamic drifting of rhythm instruments. The structure is well-built, it has dynamics all the way, and the themes do not either turn to too empty or stereotyped. No Place Like Home is rather built on thrash metal, at least it’s reflected by the whole track. The metal-oriented music here and there shows signs of progressive elements, but the determined vocals coming on the heavy, hard themes make the armada of riffs even more enjoyable and destructive.

End Of Time isn’t any lighter either than the previous tracks though the pace is a bit slower but it’s no problem. It’s also an energetic, unique track composed in the vein of oldschool thrash and death metal. Here, as previously, progressive parts come up again among the themes and this mixture makes the whole unique. Every instrument plays its best. The last song is titled Angel Of Demise. It opens with a marching theme, and with prolonged guitar sounds, and the demonic nature of the vocals brings forth even more the dark mood. The playing is technical, with well thought-out parts, heavy, morbid rhythms, as the song crushes everything with its killing rage. Recommended for the fans, especially for those into progressive thrash/death metal.

Hinsetzen, anschnallen, Ohren auf und CD Player gefüttert mit IZEGRIM..s neuer Mini CD POINT OF NO RETURN!
Hier kommen IZEGRIM mit ihrem ersten Futternachschub für die ausgehungerten Fans, die sich 2008 schon an „TRIBUTE TO TOTALITRIANISM“ (DAWN Radio stellte vor) nicht satt hören konnten.
Eigentlich gibt es nur 3 neue Tracks und ein Re Release vom Album „Guidelines For Genocide“ aus dem Jahr 2002. Aber immerhin gibt es ordentlich in die Fresse und das volle Riffbrett an den Kopf geknallt. Schönen Gruß an die Welle, sozusagen!

Lauscht man dem Gesang glaubt man es kaum, soviel Brachialität aus weiblicher Frontschnauze, öhm, Schnute. Marloes ist eine der wenigen weiblichen Shouterinnen in
diesem Bizz und Genre, die nicht versuchen unnötig zu growlen, sondern pure Energie mit Ihrer Stimme versprüht. In bester Tradition mit Sabina Claasen von Holy Moses geht die Frau ab wie Schmidts Katze und zeigt manchem Kollegen wie Thrash aus der Röhre zu klingen hat. Bravo!

Jedenfalls sind die 4 Stücke ein guter Auftakt zum nächsten Longplayer der sehnlichst erwartet wird von IZEGRIM, und hier kommt kein Schaf im Wolfspelz. Hier gibt es die amtliche Vollbedienung in Sachen Thunder Thrash Metal.

Fazit: Klein aber fein sollte eine Mini CD sein. Das Ding geht ab wie Hulematz und reisst einem den Schädel ab.
