Elis – Catharsis – Review

January 1, 2010

Three releases and an EP, and they still let the guy “sing”? Third-rate female-fronted Goth metal (on Napalm? Gee, really?) with pro-production by Alex Krull.

Dialis – Precatic – Review

January 1, 2010

Organic Gothic rock. Simply dark, brooding, somber rock. From Italy, two guys with friends and 11 songs to contemplate.

Dangermaker – Review

January 1, 2010

Reminds me of INXS. Slick yet kinda dark, ’80s pop rock with some keyboards, but enough slithering guitar to keep it rock.

Informatik – Arena – Review

December 1, 2009

Type O Negative vocals with smooth synths and programming more like New Order than Skinny Puppy, Informatik writes electronic arena rock as well as club hits.

Funker Vogt – War Zone K17 – Review

December 1, 2009

War Zone K17 is a double live CD, and my favorite parts are the songs I already love performed live. To me, the band’s best songs are from the Navigator days.

Exciter – Thrash Speed Burn – Review

December 1, 2009

As far as Exciter are concerned, time stopped in 1983, when thrash was ascendant and song titles like “Massacre Mountain” would’ve been greeted with a warm nod.
