Engel – Threnody – Review

January 26, 2011

Sweden’s Engel barrels down the road at a great clip for the first four tracks of Threnody, bashing through some modern metal with incredible energy and polish.

Gwar – Bloody Pit of Horror – Review

December 31, 2010

It’s the McDonald’s ball pit of metal, a gloriously fun and dirty pile of sounds with a solid undercurrent of good songwriting and metal knowledge beneath.

Kylesa – Spiral Shadow – Review

December 27, 2010

A sad record. Not in a boo-hoo way, it’s more of a hands-in-pockets, head down, kick the can as the weight of existence slows your movement kind of way.

Dimmu Borgir – Abrahadabra – Review

December 10, 2010

Riotgod – Review

December 8, 2010

30 seconds in, singer Mark Sunshine has already belted out a “whoo” and a “yeeaah,” signaling the coming flood of big, fuzzy riffs, sky-tearing solos.

Liz Phair – Funstyle – Review

November 26, 2010

Atheist – Jupiter – Review

November 24, 2010

Jupiter zips and crashes around the room, its sharp edges colliding with surfaces hard and soft, hurling itself constantly forward with impossible energy.
