Anathema – Hindsight – Review

January 1, 2008

Acoustic takes on old and new faves from this influencial UK atmospheric, melodic metal band, plus a newbie, “Unchained (Tales of the Unexpected).”

Alesana – Where Myth Fades to Legend – Review

January 1, 2008

A perfect example of “emo” where singers who can’t sing, and “screamo” where kids scream about life’s injustices from their parent’s homes in the burbs.

Warbringer – War Without End – Review

January 1, 2008

On their debut, Warbringer remind us all that lots of thrash/speedmetal bands sucked and were soon forgotten.

The Gathering – A Noise Severe – Review

January 1, 2008

Double live CD, last with Anneke van Gierssbergen, one of the great female singer of our time. I’ve followed them from metal to pop to trip-hop and back.

Stigma – When Midnight Strikes – Review

January 1, 2008

Brutal, gloriously-produced, and catchy in their straightforward way, but not dynamic enough for me, a fan of melody, breakdowns, and perhaps a few harmonies.

Spyder Baby – Let Us Prey – Review

January 1, 2008

You’d call this razor-sharp punky industrial metal if you hadn’t been listening to Ministry since ’90, cuz then you’d just call it a good genre cover band.

Meshuggah – Obzen – Review

January 1, 2008

Great musicians with riffs like Pantera gone haywire, but they’re often so prog, you can’t headbang without second-guessing their next slippery transition.

Draconian – Turning Season Within – Review

January 1, 2008

Swedish doom, huge and looming, crystal production, sweet female vocals, and trudging guitars supporting the monster roar lamenting deep and sorrowful stuff.

Biomechanical – Cannibalised – Review

January 1, 2008

Of the debut, I said ” Blends tightly-compressed Pantera groove’n’thunder with Halford screeching.” Cannibalised is pretty much the same, only heavier.

Atrocity – Werk 80 II – Review

January 1, 2008

Don’t know how often I’d whip this out, but lots of these songs were sappy and dumb to start, so a mediocre Goth metal version of them is no better or worse.
