Misery Speaks
Finding yet another way to work "misery" into a band name, Germany's MISERY SPEAKS lands its Alveran debut (after the independently released full-length "Things Fall Apart" and "Demo 2005" disc) and should make a medium-sized splash in scene waters with this self-titled album. The album's fundamenta...July 17, 2006

The Art of Agony
What the hell is it with New Jersey? REVENANT, RIPPING CORPSE, HUMAN REMAINS, NOKTURNEL… this state has been responsible for some really twisted, ripping death/thrash. And lest you think that era is long gone, another voice from the past has made itself known in the modern day — VICIOUS CIRCLE, form...July 17, 2006

Black Stone Cherry
Got a burning desire to hear a big, loud, slightly twangy marriage of NICKELBACK and BRAND NEW SIN? Yeah, me either. The single, "Lonely Train", has already been tapped as a WWE theme song, which oughta slot these guys right in where they belong – the token new rock band of the year for disaffected...July 17, 2006

The Fall of Ideals
After about a billion shows with a million different bands over the last couple of years, ALL THAT REMAINS has finally kicked out a new album, "The Fall of Ideals". An incendiary live act, the already tight musicianship seems to have been honed further this time. As far as metalcore goes, ALL THAT R...July 10, 2006

Embittered Darkness/Isle De Morts
They don't get much more authentic than this nutter. STRIBORG's sole member, Sin Nanna (wasn't that one of OL' DIRTY BASTARD's aliases when he flipped his lid?),apparently lives in Tasmania, out in the forest, without a computer or telephone, and refuses to do interviews or allow fan contact. How m...July 10, 2006

Enter Deception
First Pennsylvania's PHARAOH knocks one out of the park with the superb MAIDEN-influenced, traditional/power metal leviathan "The Longest Night", and now Omaha, Nebraska's (yes, you read that right) CELLADOR delivers a crushing blow with a speeding power metal tour de force called "Enter Deception"....July 4, 2006

The Chthonic Chronicles
It must piss off BAL-SAGOTH to no end that those puffy-shirted Italian rogues in RHAPSODY get the real Christopher Lee to add narration to their albums. They'd certainly give the old ham more scenery to chew on — a good portion of the vocals on these blustery, unbelievably pretentious tracks are del...July 3, 2006

Wrath of the Norsemen
I think I've had enough AMON AMARTH to last me through the rest of the year, seven hours and 22 minutes to be exact. It is the total running time for this three-DVD set called "Wrath of the Norsemen". Fortunately, the five live performances are worth the time of any AMON AMARTH fan. Rather than ...July 2, 2006
