HELLBOUND’s TOP 10 CANADIAN METAL ALBUMS OF 2012
Since Hellbound.ca is a Canadian-owned and operated metal publication, we do things a little bit different than most.

Toronto’s most outrageous, over-the-top live band usually has something special up their sleeves around this time of year, and this year is no exception. Mind you, they’ve scheduled things a week later this time to…
