Metal/Hardcore Review

Opeth – Lamentations – Review

May 23, 2004

You see the band creating, thinking real hard, in the studio, emulating the old ways, which, unfortunately for the band’s health, included recording in a “classic prog” studio, a process which almost killed the band.

Lamb of God – Terror and Hubris – Review

May 23, 2004

Lots of drunken revelry is placed against the band taking their mission very seriously indeed, through sincere, well-meaning interview footage documenting everything from the band’s origins to their creative process.

Judas Priest – Electric Eye – Review

May 23, 2004

Though it takes nothing away from the majesty of the band’s finest rock, the videos are every bit as bad as I remember. Also included are six rare performances recorded for BBC television, 1975-1980.

Grip Inc. – Incorporated – Review

May 23, 2004

Grip Inc. roars like a warhorse mismatched from three warhorses, the band fit together to make a unique cross between Slayer, Anglo hooligan hardcore, and Egyptian melodies.

Anathema – A Natural Disaster – Review

April 19, 2004

Danny has written most of the record, but Anathema have turned in a fairly single-mooded, periodically guitary record, one that is equal parts Radiohead, Porcupine Tree, and late ’90s Anathema.

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.

Crestfallen – Review

April 12, 2004

Virginia’s Crestfallen surges with a ferocious appetite on this five-song EP. A vibrant mixture of grind/noisecore/metal and punk, the EP sees the band delivering a very “live” vibe.
