Sis Masis
Exercises in futility don't get much more futile than this one. I'm not talking about "Sis Masis", obviously, because it's a monster of an album with a high rating. But it almost seems silly to write a review for a disc so obscure I had to hunt it down and special order it for $35 ...January 30, 2006

Amped
This band frustrates me. They've got the tools, but consistency is often a problem. While "Amped" has its moments, there is never enough going for it to make it a well rounded, quality album of traditional heavy metal. One can always find some satisfactory Jack Frost riff heft here and there, but wi...January 23, 2006

Come Clarity
After the musical brilliance and Swedish might of IN FLAMES' "Colony" and "Clayman", it would have been damn near impossible for future albums to measure up. Initially unsure of "Reroute to Remain", the infinitely more melodic follow-up to "Clayman" ultimately hooked me and I ended up enjoying it im...January 2, 2006

Out Loud
"Out Loud" by Slovenia's NAIO SSAION seems to be Napalm Records' attempt to make a big splash in the modern rock/pop world. If you're looking for a review of an album representative of the label's more gothic-folk-metal catalogue, look elsewhere (the band's violin-driven folk slivers notwithstanding...January 2, 2006
