A Different Kind Of Pain

What happened to the fun of playing rock music, especially when it comes from the sheer power of heavy rock? COLD, which returns with its fourth album after several lineup changes and a label switch, is comprised of talented and solid players, and frontman Scooter Ward can sing and write some freque...

Gold Becomes Sacrifice

CANNAE's third album and the first one I've heard, "Gold Becomes Sacrifice", snorts, snarls, and kicks 90-pound weaklings in the face. As far as sheer heaviness is concerned, the quintet leaves bomb craters in its wake. Except for the brief instrumental, "Collapse", "Gold Becomes Sacrifice" continue...

The New Age of Terror

You may recall that HIRAX released two Metal Blade albums — "Raging Violence" (1985) and "Hate, Fear, and Power" (1986) — before finally calling it quits in 1989.

"Hazardous Mutation", by Richmond, Virgini...

Review

Vendetta

Based on my lukewarm feelings about "Haymaker", I was prepared to give THROWDOWN's "Vendetta" a mediocre review. I seem to be one of the few that weren't knocked on their asses by the 2003 release. The album has its moments, but seems to drag at times; something about those extra thick, breakdownish...
