In Waves
TRIVIUM set the bar pretty high for themselves with 2008's "Shogun". While the band's success elicited several obligatory "sell-out" chants, the album itself packed enough punch to knock the wind out of any argument stating the Floridians had gone soft. An aggressive performance coupled with bold so...August 9, 2011

Surreal Overdose
Is there anyone that doesn't immediately think of three things when the subject of DECEASED is discussed? That trio would be thrash/death icon King Fowley, horror, and the ridiculous amount of supreme riffs. "Surreal Overdose", the first DECEASED studio album since 2005's "As the Weird Travel On", w...July 28, 2011

Communication Lost
It's been a long wait for the new WOLVERINE album. It seems the band lost some momentum after the brilliant beauty of 2006's "Still". That new WOLVERINE album has finally arrived, it's called "Communication Lost", and it one deep, dark, and chilling opus of melancholic progressive rock. At 71 minute...July 27, 2011

Generation Wild
It is totally derivative of a potpourri of '80s glam rock and hair metal bands, including the glammed up look of the band members themselves; the album clearly one for fans of that definitively love-hate era. And it would seem that's exactly what Sweden's CRASHDIET intended with new album "Generatio...July 27, 2011

Bleed
The deathcore express rolls on. There might be a few bells here and a couple of whistles there, but most bands playing a style that has divided the purists from the genre-splitting loyalists sticks to what got it to the dance: super down-tuned chugging guitars, growl 'n scream vocals, and breakdowns...July 27, 2011

A Godlike Inferno
Let's get this straight. Austin's ANCIENT VVISDOM contributed one half of a split with CHARLES MANSON, includes alumni of hardcore head splitters INTEGRITY and IRON AGE, and their style of acoustic-driven music has been called death rock through which Lucifer's praises are sung. That's an interestin...July 27, 2011

It was only a matter of time before INDIAN grew out of Seventh Rule's toxic sludge incubator and found more room to grow and infect on the roster of Relapse Records, a label that has already demonstrated a nose for the finer things in sonic torment by releasing COUGH's last album.
