To the Grave

Five full-lengths into an unremarkable career, it's hard to get too worked up one way or the other about IRON FIRE.

Not that I don't appreciate what they do; I just kind of lost interest some years back, but still cherish golden 80s albums like "Fighting the World", "Hail to England", and "Kings of Metal". As such, I was marginally in...

It is not a question of ROSE FUNERAL's inability to write decent songs and play a fairly convincing form of modern down-tuned 'n chunky death metal. It is just that the continual aping of a beaten-to-death style makes it difficult to appreciate an album like "The Resting Sonata", if only because you...
