Asphyx – God Cries – Review

September 1, 1996

Out of obscurity comes God Cries with all the devastating potential Asphyx had at the start. It’s good to hear old scensters make a great album.

Grave – Hating Life – Review

August 1, 1996

The guitar and drums are so heavy, mean, tuned-low, and brutal, that one will have no trouble recognizing this as an uncompromising death metal release.

Christian Death – Amen – Review

December 1, 1995

Christian Death just isn’t the same without Rozz Williams or Gitane Demone. But Amen isn’t all bad. A double live CD with extremely good recording quality.

Merauder – Master Killer – Review

December 1, 1995

This one took a while to convince me it had hardcore influences. Jorge’s voice has more European death style than one expects from a street-smart NYHC band.

Hostility – Brick – Review

December 1, 1995

A wild mix of dirty backwoods chords and Pantera roar, this is as close to Down’s heavy sludge sound as I’ve heard, sans New Orleans’ shuffle.
