Metal Massacre 14 – Review

April 29, 2016

34 years and 13 volumes later, Metal Massacre 14 compiles a new wave of artists all sharing a true metal mindset. Strictly old-school denim and leather stuff.

Seattle Noise Vol. 1 – Review

July 4, 2014

Good to Die has been putting out dirty, heavy and straight-up “authentic” sounding rock and metal for a few years, and this 14-song comp is a great sampler.

Intended Play 2012 – Review

May 25, 2012

In January, Matador released Intended Play 2012, a sampler LP of new and classic songs from various artists for the outrageous sum of $1.98.

Johnny Cash Remixed – Review

June 1, 2009

Snoop Dogg’s slaughter of “I Walk the Line” is unforgivable. Other remixes are cool, simply because they’re left alone, just beats and flourishes added.

Thrashing Like A Maniac – Review

February 1, 2009

16 cuts of shredding metal. It has names ya know and names ya don’t, plus little photos, a blurb, a web link, and “courtesy of” credits if not on Earache.

I Killed Punk Rock – Review

February 1, 2008

Ex-Ransom member and serial blogger Mikey Von Ransom shows his off his collection highlighted by Turbo A.C.’s, Lower Class Brats, Clit 45, and The Sleazies.

Pop Punk’s Not Dead – Review

January 1, 2008

Ramones-inspired ditties stemming from ’50’s prom songs and juvenile delinquent movies are present, but these diverse bands show a wide range of vocal styles.

Cover Your Tracks – Review

July 20, 2007

New Deep Elm artists covering old Deep Elm classics… ooooooh boy, this is gonna get ugly. Cold, hard proof that the glorious ’90s are long, long gone.

Play – Review

June 22, 2007

Play can be enjoyed by anyone between one and 101. It isn’t aimed to placate children “just for the time being”: It’s meant to stay with you as you grow up.

Metal = Life 2 – Review

March 2, 2007

Exclusively from Hot Topic, Metal = Life 2 features some of the best and worst metal and hardcore acts of today. The two CDs pack a bulky 38 tracks.

Give ‘Em The Boot – V – Review

December 15, 2006

A good round-up of Hellcat bands ranging from psychobilly to ska and all manner of punk. No real surprises, and no real highlights, just like the last time.

The Dark Psyche – Review

December 8, 2006

I like Hellhammer and Venom more than Cradle of Filth, and a good number of bands on this comp play that cool, old school, broken down, punk-influenced style.

Rock’n’Roll Blvd Volume 1 – Review

December 1, 2006

Very cool two-disc comp of up and coming biker, swagger, and stoner rock bands, all of whom are sure to please if you’re a fan of whiskey, weed, and women.

Threat – Music That Inspired The Movie – Review

September 1, 2006

It’s not until you hear one of these digital hardcore artists rip apart a metalcore song, string it back together with horror movie screams, bong water bubble, and skittering breakbeats that ya realize how dull it was to begin with.
