Words That Go Unspoken, Deeds that Go Undone
England's AKERCOCKE are in a class by themselves, one of those bands that remains rooted in a death metal style without ever being limited by it.

Dead Rhythm Machine
Here we have a fairly effective fusion of punk and rock 'n' roll. The most appealing part of "Dead Rhythm Machine" is how quickly any one of these 13 up-tempo tracks makes you want to move, even if it's as simple as getting the 'ole noggin moving to and fro. It's not at though these ...October 31, 2005

10 Steps to Hell
What in the world is going on this month? Lately, it seems that every other CD coming my way is a gem, the latest two beasts from Candlelight. The first, the Hell-born rage of 1349's "Hellfire" and now the deathly fire thrash of GRIMFIST's "10 Steps to Hell". Whereas 2003's "Ghouls of Grandeur" debu...October 23, 2005
