“They play punk-infused arena rock like retarded hillbillies.” Like porn-obsessed faves the Dwarves, their carnal cravings and musical leanings seem the same.
Jonesin’ for prog metal? The new concert DVD from Anathema should do the trick. Like Dream Theater fronted by Gavin Rossdale, with all of the pros and cons.
For all their rock’n’roll swagger, this four-song EP only teasers a tune worth remembering, and still-unknowns The Bones has a CD full of memorable singalongs.
Goth is rarely funny intentionally. Voltaire is always a good time, with humorous songs about zombies, dancing skeletons, and all kinds of ghoulish goodness.
Vintersorg’s Andreas Hedlund offers vocal duties to Borknagar. His warm, passionate, folky vocals add depth to any band he’s in, and Vintersorg is his band.
Hard punk/near-rockabilly/greaser rocker rock isn’t exactly where the paycheck’s at these days, so you can bet these poolhall hooligans are in it for the tunes.
Dense in production, complex in arrangement, thick and churning. “Death-Grind Powerhouse” is an apt description, as much as I dislike lifting from bios.
It’s mind-boggling how many sugary-sweet pop punk tunes Dan Schafer (Dan Vapid) has penned or played. Screeching Weasel, Riverdales, and now The Methadones.
Recommended for anyone looking for rap that’s more interesting and creative than the thug-life morons using hip-hop to start another unnecessary clothing line.
