No More Heroes 2 – Desperate Struggle – Review

March 1, 2010

When Travis Touchdown fires up his katana and screams “Fuck you!” as he carves up opponents, you’re ready for the gaming equivalent of Never Mind The Bollocks.

MLB 2K10 – Review

March 1, 2010

The visuals are clean and serviceable but lack some of the finer details, and who thought it was a good idea to put advertisements in achievement boxes?

Left 4 Dead 2 – Review

March 1, 2010

It’s the little touches in L4D2 that create an oppressively bleak atmosphere and push the game beyond the realm of just a hyperactive zombie shooting gallery.

Infinite Space – Review

March 1, 2010

You’re thrust into a complex game world with a paucity of guidance, which make future gains all the sweeter, and Infinite Space has a lot to give.

LaLa – Review

February 1, 2010

Used to be that if you wanted to make a half Basement Jaxx, half Cannibal Corpse playlist, you had to pay to make that freakish vision a reality. No more…

Wolf – Ravenous – Review

February 1, 2010

Guitars über alles. As if there wasn’t enough, they recruit Hank Sherman (Mercyful Fate) and Roy Z (who doubles as producer) to pile some solos onto the fire.

The National Rifle – Man Full of Trouble – Review

February 1, 2010

Ever wish Trent Reznor would abandon the whole industrial thing and spit lyrics over some spazzy saxophone?

The 69 Eyes – Back in Blood – Review

February 1, 2010

The 69 Eyes made their mark with unabashedly groovy, impossibly catchy tunes like “Lost Boys,” and that magic isn’t gone, it’s just buried by filler.

My Dying Bride – For Lies I Sire – Review

February 1, 2010

Personal, micro-level approach to doom. More akin to the sound of your life draining slowly from your veins on a bed of black roses (histrionics intentional).

Lita Ford – Wicked Wonderland – Review

February 1, 2010

Lita has forgotten how to write good songs and good riffs.
