Because on April 1st, 2022. We witnessed the greatest concert of all-time, with Emily Kavanaugh being the greatest front person of all-time.
Mark Brooks will be this years winner for the best synthesizer player for the year 2022.
And we have moved the 1st 3 Night Club albums to the #1, #2 #3 spots in our objective best albums of all-time. And also will be in our favorite albums stack in the best subjective albums of all-time stack.
Photo above is the 2022 top 150 which will be expanded to the top 175.
Below is the previous recommended best objective albums of all-time list, this way since 1969 Coven, 1983 Mercyful Fate, 1990 Pantera & Deicide, 1994 Cradle of Filth, 1999 Crest of Darkness. But we have given the world 35 years to get all of these, but what has to be in your serious collection above all, is the 1st 3 Night Club albums, Who have awesome coverage all over the planet, buy the way. Just there is no central archives for Night Club’s genre with the disbanding of Vampire Freaks Social Media, which was from 1999-to-2021 . So were trying to fill that void with ElectroZombies webZine.
KICK ASS METAL is a Death Metal-age/ Gothic Metal-age / Avant-Garde Metal-age publication.
And those albums should be repurchased quarterly. We not the only ones with this realization. The Facebook numbers for Night Club is 38,000, but the real number is 320,000 which is the youTube number.
Kick Ass Metal is a Death Metal-age/ Gothic Metal-age / Avant-Garde Metal-age publication.
On April 1st, 2022. Night Club performed the greatest concert of all-time. I never seen anyone, In this case Emily Kavanagh have that much stamina, charisma, talent, stage presence & command of the room.
Emily Kavanaugh is KICK ASS METAL’s webZine/ Cenas Brutais news service’s 2022 KICK ASS METAL person of the year…aka greatest world-class vocalist article.. stay tuned. We chose this photo because Mark Brooks – Synthesizer is in the background. On 2022 April 1st, 2022. Night Club performed the greatest concert of all-time, and Emily Kavanaugh proved to be the greatest live front person of all-time. Night Club they KICKED our asses badly!!!!! This is the real historical fact, that day will forever be the indelible mark on my psyche and soul. For concerts i have a photographic memory, and to see this for the next 20,455 days means the world to me. I am 55 years young and will live to be 100+ to 120 years or more. The heavy genre is only 52/ 53 years young. So there is still room for genre growth that is sure. The concert on 4/1/2022 @ Sanctuary Club in the Detroit Rock, City. Hamtramck has the most citizens in Michigan. 4/1/2022 with Josie Pace/ Holy Wars & Night Club was the heaviest night of my life. Nothing put positive vibes from 2 of the most down-to-earth, most bad ass and kick ass people in heavy music. Emily Kavanaugh and Mark Brooks.

Top 15 before the Die in the Disco Tour
Top 15 after the Die in the Disco tour above. Updated on May 1st, 2022, after the greatest concert of all-time where Emily Kavanaugh proved on the battle grounds to be the greatest live front person of all-time.
Kick Ass Metal is a Death Metal-age/ Gothic Metal-age/ Avant-Garde Metal – age publication.
The 1st 3 Night Club releases. Have ascended from the top 25 of all-time. To the top 15 of all-time. To the top 5 of all-time. With 3 of there albums in top top 5.
It was observed on April 1st, 2022 that Emily Kavanaugh is the greatest front person of all-time.
And Night Club performed the greatest concert of all-time. That i witness on the “Die In The Disco” Spring 2022 tour with Josie Pace/ Holy Wars & Night Club
I started music as a toddler with Led Zeppelin, Coven & Black Sabbath. So those bands are my nostalgia point. My mother was a heavy metal fan. Before this we listened to Elvis, The Beach Boys, The Beatles & a insane amount of classical music.
Night club has had the strongest 10 year run in all of music history.
Zero degradation in song writing, heavier with each release, and the most intelligent song writers of all- time
Night Club “Requiem For Romance”
Night Club “Scary World”
Night Club “Die Die Lullabye”
Coven “Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls”
Crest of Darkness “The Ogress”.
The new top 150 will be relaunched on my 55th birthday on May 17th, 2022.
This editors note is to serve to you if you love the previous list. Print that out.
It is because of bands such as Night Club Kick Ass Metal was founded in the 1st place.
After we have a big problem with delays and started the tour without t-shirts, finally we have everything. But for sure we are providing new designs for t-shirts and in the next few days you can also find some patches.
Stay tuned and thank you so much for all the support!
(editors note, Cobra Spell is classified as Hard Rock/ Heavy Metal, but we know them to be glam metal to the bone and to the core. Nothing will change our mind on this)
– OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT –
We announce that we are parting ways with rhythm guitarist Esmée van Sinderen, and – mutually agreed with him – part ways with drummer Léonard Cakolli.
This decision was taken due to personal indifferences. Their vision does not align to the band’s and the speed rate that the band is evolving. Being part of a band that just started to grow very fast requires a certain amount of effort, time and sacrifice that not everyone can offer/give with their own priorities and job. Therefor we are obliged to take this decision for the well-being and workflow of the band.
We wish them the best in the personal projects and future endeavours and thank them deeply for being part of our epic journey so far!
Very big opportunities are coming into our path, and this means COBRA SPELL needs to have a a strong and stable line-up for what is coming. As we mentioned, COBRA SPELL has just started taking off, and all of us in the band are giving 110% of our energy and input to bring this band to the next level. We all share this musical dream and we want to reach it all together. Therefor we are more than ready to bring stability in the band and find 2 new sisters that want to be part of our rocking crew! We are currently looking for a female rhythm guitarist and drummer that share the same passion and mentality to make it far. Are you the one?! Contact us here: cobraspell@gmail.com
**Our future activities and plans will not be affected and all the shows and appointments schedule will still run as announced:
We will be having the talented Anna Voloshyna as stand-in guitarist for the coming shows! Thank you so much, girl!
Léonard will be on the road with us for the coming tour dates, this will be his last shows — so come to the show and let’s give a rocking farewell to Léo!
12/05 – Weiher, Germany
13/05 – Leipzig, Germany
14/05 – Hamburg, Germany
15/05 – Hasselt, Belgium
16/05 – Kassel, Germany
17/05 – Berlin, Germany
18/05 – Warsaw, Poland
19/05 – Vienna, Austria
28/05 – Haarlem, The Netherlands
03/06 – Alvesta, Sweden
05/06 – Full Metal Cruise IX, UK-DE
06/06 – Full Metal Cruise IX, UK-DE
We would like to remind you that this is just the beginning for us, we just started giving priority to this band and the engine just running. We feel and know the future of the band is very bright! Big things are coming & we have a lot of epic shows and new music on the works!
Extreme Metal Icons 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗧𝗛 Sign Worldwide Contract with Napalm Records!
On Tour in North America with Danzig and Crobot NOW!
European Tour Dates & Summer Festivals Announced
Austrian rock and metal empire 𝗡𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗹𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 is thrilled to announce their exciting new partnership with English extreme metal titans 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗧𝗛, who have just signed a worldwide contract with the label!
Positioned firmly at the top of the extreme black metal genre, 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗧𝗛 – led and revolutionized by iconic frontman Dani Filth – reign supreme as one of the most revered, formative and notorious names in the scene, and are undeniably responsible for breaking ground for many of today’s top metal artists with their trademark mixture of grim blackened heaviness, macabre theatricality and scintillating gothic style. The rule of Filth began in 1991, followed by the unleashing of 1994’s The Principle Of Evil Made Flesh – humble beginnings that expanded into cinematic classics like Cruelty And The Beast and Midian.
The band’s unyielding international touring schedule has garnered them a massive following both in the cult underground and at the top of the mainstream, defying trends while staying true to their roots. More recent offerings such as 2015’s Hammer Of The Witches and 2017’s Cryptoriana – The Seductiveness Of Decay continued to bolster the unremitting legacy of Filth, until the band, along with the rest of the universe, was abruptly halted by the global pandemic in 2020. But, as is evident by the staggering response from their devoted legion of followers, that time was put to good use, spurring the emergence of the band’s latest, breathtakingly heavy offering, 2021’s Existence Is Futile. The album debuted at #20 on the Billboard 200 with Hard Rock Genre, on the Hard Music Albums charts at #4 in the US and #5 in Canada, #9 on the German Album charts, #3 and #5 on the UK Rock & Metal Albums chart and UK Independent Albums chart respectively, #4 on the Finnish Albums chart and many more, proving that 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗙𝗜𝗟𝗧𝗛 continue to own the dark.
Now, Napalm Records is honored to deliver the band’s haunting hallmark to the masses as their musical panorama reaches into the future.
