Hackman – The New Normal – Review

May 4, 2007

Lineage-from Milligram and Lamont, placing them in Boston’s gulping hardrockcore and whoop-ass drunk-speed-rock by the 40 oz. It rumbles exactly right.

Clouds – Legendary Demo – Review

May 4, 2007

A spin-off of Cave In. Sick in the same way as the early, super-distorted Hellacopters records and Life of Crime/You Can’t Pray a Lie-era Laughing Hyenas.

Rogue Galaxy – Review

May 4, 2007

A fantasy RPG set in an age of space pirates. A universe equal parts Pirates of the Caribbean grime and the sleek, futuristic vision of Ratchet and Clank.

April 27, 2007

April 27, 2007

The Charms hit signifiers (organ, chintzy brat vocals) more than the thing itself. The “rock me shock me” guitars flop on the bass/drums rather than ride’m.
