 BNR Metal Pages -- Holocaust   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Holocaust is truly one of the stalwarts of the NWOBHM era, as their debut album, The Nightcomers, featuring the anthemic "Heavy Metal Mania" and the classic "Death Or Glory", remains an all-time NWOBHM classic.
But the popularity of the band (quite high during those early days) was short-lived, and internal friction between the band members developed.
Moreover, with a lot of NWOBHM bands either sticking to their old style (or reforming just to cash in on old glories), it's great to see a band like Holocaust both embrace the past and venture forth with new ideas in metal.

 Gendercide Watch: The Jewish Holocaust
The holocaust inflicted upon European Jews by the Nazi regime was arguably the most systematic and sadistic campaign of mass extermination ever mounted.
The gendercidal dimension of the holocaust against the Jews was evident during particular phases of the campaign of extermination.
As with the Armenian case, the Jewish holocaust was launched with an initial genocidal outburst that targeted overwhelmingly males -- partly as a means of acclimatizing the genocidal agents to their tasks.

 [No title]
Debra Band's exhibition, The Song of Songs - The Honeybee in the Garden, showcases a contemporary illuminated manuscript illustrating The Song of Solomon's lyrical love poetry, expressing sensual yearning, the beauty of nature and the land, and an allegorical interpretation of the relationship between bride (the people of Israel) and groom (God).

 Spielberg and the Eleven Million
Although Polish Holocaust survivors in speaking roles are likely too WASPish for the purposes of contemporary anti-racism, and although Jews hate Poles even more than they hate Germans, their visible presence would be a reasonable concession to the historical fact that most of the inmates at Dachau were Gentiles, many of them Poles and Catholics.
Jews have successfully figured Jewish Holocaust survivors and Jewish Holocaust deaths into synecdoches for the results of "racism," one part standing for the rest, so that other victims become semantically superfluous and need not be exhibited.
The Holocaust has increasingly become, for the democratic world at least, a symbol of all the other Genocides, for racism, anti-Semitism, hatred of foreigners, ethnic cleansing, and mass destruction of humans by humans generally.

 African Holocaust album
For the band and their music, the album is definitely a step in the right direction for many reasons and the listener, once again, can experience some of the classic unparalleled trademark 'Pulse sound' that the band delivered from 1979 to 1984...
The group’s latest release, African Holocaust, is evidence of their continued fight against injustice, education of the masses and promotion of both political and social messages through the flair of spirit-lifting music.
African Holocaust comes closer to Pulse's roots (still noticeably British reggae in tempo; the influence of their local, also highly rebellious, local punk scene as children is not denied) than anything recent, obviously urged by the times for another powerful message.
