Totimoshi – Milagrosa – Review

August 1, 2008

The sound, approach, structure remains intact, but a relaxed sway has infiltrated. From strangled screaming to articulating why they were so goddamn cranked-up.

Torche – Meanderthal – Review

July 1, 2008

The plainspoken vocals aligned with the semi-doom crush via melancholy sparkle is mid-90s AmRep, so I see Helmet and Slint more than metal qua metal as rootage.

Iota – Tales – Review

July 1, 2008

Quality power trio heavy-rock/space-rock interface for those raised upon Monster Magnet and the mung those drugged peddle hopper stompers dosed on.

Turbonegra – L’Ass Cobra – Review

June 1, 2008

A Turbonegro cover band, from San Francisco, all girls. They yelp more than Hank, but they’ve got the songs tight’n’right, loose and freewheelin’ as needed.
