Hammerfall – One Crimson Night – Review

April 19, 2004

Offering everything you’d want out of a live album, Hammerfall make this thing look and sound like Live After Death. The set is spirited throughout, one show in the band’s hometown of Gothenburg, Sweden.

John Vanderslice – Cellar Door – Review

April 19, 2004

On his fourth solo album, Vanderslice pushes the limits of analog recording to its threshold, saturating tape and overdubbing a plethora of instruments without losing the warmth of the human touch.

The Sweethearts – L.U.V – Review

April 12, 2004

Teenie boppers looking for the next No Doubt need look no further. Super cutesy vocals over moderately aggressive guitars that stay crunchy in milk.

Crestfallen – Review

April 12, 2004

The Crumbs – Last Exit – Review

April 12, 2004
