Prophets of Doom
I appreciate PRO-PAIN for always delivering what I expect it too: hardcore-based metal that's a swift kick to the teeth. It's a double-edged sword for the band, as folks like myself enjoy the unbridled assault and battery, while others tend to criticize the quartet for keeping it predictable. As muc...April 11, 2005

Hate.Malice.Revenge
Much is made of the mixing of hardcore and death or thrash metal, the term "metalcore" being beaten into the ground by critics and fans alike. At some point, you've got to look at it as nothing more than a band's influences coming together and being realized through the music that is created. I happ...April 10, 2005

Stoned Council
Quite possibly the worst band I've heard this year, and that includes a lot of demo band CD-Rs, DOG FACED GODS seem to have been picked up mainly due to the novelty of their Native American heritage. I hate it when this sort of thing happens — it heaps undue attention upon a band not ...April 10, 2005

Liquid Monster
I remember giving BRAINSTORM's "Soul Temptation" one of those solid-but-mediocre tags in a review I did a couple of years ago, and I'm still not certain why, as it ended up growing on me. I now consider it to be a fine heavy metal album. That review has always bugged me. Needless to say, I ...April 4, 2005
