Supermachine – Supermachine – Music Stream

August 23, 2013

Recording sounds great, but if you were a fan of Scissorfight, most of these songs are a waste of the guitarist’s and bassist’s gonzo talent and locked groove.

Essence of Mind – Indifference – Music Stream

August 21, 2013

Norway’s answer to anthemic synth pop, while there’s nothing here to topple Apoptygma Berzerk or Zeromancer, there are many potential singles here.

Siva Six – Superstition – Music Stream

August 19, 2013

The Greek Gothers nailed it with 2011’s The Twin Moons, and this 15-track Superstition EP continues the distorted whispers, frantic beats, and industrial chaos.

Deville – Hydra – Music Stream

August 16, 2013

There’s enough metal chug and stoner swagger to keep this a rock record, but the polished production will make the shaggy wary of commercial overplay.

Helalyn Flowers – White Me In / Black Me Out – Music Stream

August 15, 2013

Helalyn Flowers combine a strong, beautiful female singer and a strong electro metal-tinged male rock beast, so it’d be hard to go wrong, yes? Well, no.

Ayria – Plastic Makes Perfect – Music Stream

August 14, 2013

Plastic Makes Perfect is a great album title, but Jennifer Parkin is no stranger to great looks, writing styles, titles, cover art, and, of course, songs.

Implant – The Productive Citizen – Music Stream

August 12, 2013

Cold, classic EBM with distorted vocals, news samples, plenty of trance-inducing repetition, and harsh keyboards replacing the crunch of “metal guitars.”

Gozu – The Fury of a Patient Man – Music Stream

August 9, 2013

Soulful vocals over fuzzy, well-crafted classic rock: Handclaps here, probably some cowbell, and metallic gallop and doom plod, just for good measure.

Lovelorn Dolls – The House of Wonders – Music Stream

August 5, 2013

Debut full-length from this Belgian duo, Ladyhell and Corpus Christi. They love Evanescence, Garbage, and Lacuna Coil and it shows.

Aesthetische – Nachtbrenner – Music Stream

July 31, 2013

Aghast View and Biopsy side project returns with a 15 track release, few new songs, bunch of reworks. EBM, pure and simple.

Kant Kino – Father Worked In Industry – Music Stream

July 29, 2013

Combining cold distortion of ’90s-style dark industrial with the anthemic synthpop of 2000’s faves like Apoptygma Berzerk, including chillingly female vocals.

Bottom – MMXII EP – Music Stream

July 5, 2013

Bottom has always been heavy and dark, but not like this! 2013 Bottom leans more Melvins/Blag Flag, with huge slabs of guitar fuzz to get their point across.

Mother of God – Anthropos – Music Stream

March 8, 2013

Metallic stoner rock riffery meets heavy grunge soulful/sorrowful vocals. There’s enough Mastodian cosmic swirl and thrust so it’s not duh-metal.

Five Horse Johnson – The Taking of Blackheart – Music Stream

March 7, 2013

Southern rock swagger, harmonica-drenched, dusty vocals of wide range and wide-legged stance kick up electrified cowboy grit like tequila-shooting Molly Hatchet.

Lord Fowl – Moon Queen – Music Stream

February 28, 2013

Part classic rock, part space/cosmo rock, with a healthy dose of Kiss snuck into the vocals and chorus structures.

Larman Clamor – Frogs – Music Stream

February 9, 2013

Von Wieding proves himself a filthy guitarist, sliding muck along those six strings, while gravelly whispering fierceness that’d give Tom Waits pause.

Aspiga – Every Last Piece – Music Stream

January 22, 2013

Seven song debut from this New Jersey punk band. Inconsistent vocals but chunky bass, lively tempos, and some solid melodies and good breakdowns.

Skanska Mord – Paths to Charon – Music Stream

January 7, 2013

Dirty rock, Sweden-style, with guitar chunk and harmonica from the outset, and then the Soundgarden vocals kick in, swagger and might intact, and you’re hooked.

Sons of Otis – Seismic – Music Stream

December 19, 2012

If Mastodon is shaggy, lumbering, and mighty, Sons of Otis are plodding dinosaurs with a delay pedal.

Greenleaf – Nest Of Vipers – Music Stream

December 17, 2012

Greenleaf is a “supergroup” of stoner rock veterans. Members may rotate, the music may shift slightly, but the ’70s rock template is solidly in place.

Baroness – Yellow & Green – Music Stream

September 7, 2012

Despite the hyperventilating of the press in anticipation of a negative reaction to the style changes Baroness makes on Yellow & Green, everything is fine.

Mangoo – Neverland – Music Stream

August 2, 2012

Fuzzy Finnish rockers Mangoo conjure a Fu Manch vibe on “Datzun.” Their second album, Neverland, is getting some buzz in psychedelic/stoner circles.

Suicide Inside – Homicide – Music Stream

July 1, 2012

An eclectic blend of aggressive electronic music and furious industrial rock, with heavy breakbeats, rhythmic noise, and Natasha’s razor-sharp provocative female vocals.

Freakangel – Let It All End – Music Stream

July 1, 2012

“It’s an album about all of us… how brain-dead we act in this dying world of ours, how we have lost faith in ourselves and how we prefer to believe in television nonsense and pseudo-Gods.”
