Iced Earth – Tribute to the Gods – Review

January 3, 2003

This here’s a cover album. Some swagger, some crank metal loud’n’proud, and some bow before the alter of hard rock. It’s pretty damn cool.

Bloodbath – Resurrection Through Carnage – Review

January 3, 2003

Bringing back the original Swedish sound. What did you expect from members of Opeth, Katatonia, Diabolical Masquerade, and Exit 13 (the mighty Dan Swano!)?

Rotting Christ – Genesis – Review

January 3, 2003

Rotting Christ has created the most groundbreaking record of their career, and without even a trace element of permissive female lust or cinematic FX.

Shadows Fall – The Art of Balance – Interview

January 3, 2003

An interview with vocalist Brian Fair

Unleashed – Hell’s Unleashed – Review

November 22, 2002

I practically learned how to grind from these guys. But by album number three, they’d become as dangerous as Vikings with swords attacking a nuclear submarine.

Sentenced – The Cold White Light – Review

November 22, 2002

If you are all inclined toward the band’s dreamy Finnish sentiments, there are choruses on here for miles.

Entwine – Time of Despair – Review

November 22, 2002

An interview with drummer Aksu Hanttu

Arch Enemy – Wages of Sin – Review

October 4, 2002

Arch Enemy are back with a long-overdue full-length and a ridiculously crisp, articulate, hungry new vocalist who just happens to be a fox.

Dimension Zero – Silent Night Fever – Review

October 4, 2002

Gritty, violent, power-packed, fast In Flames with Swedish death vocals provided by Jocke Göthberg, ex of Marduk.

Nonexist – Deus Deceptor – Review

September 20, 2002

Quiet parts, little bits of melody, and lots of groove-oriented breakdowns. It’s indistinguishable, but vocalist John Liiva (ex-Arch Enemy) makes it enjoyable.
