Revolting Cocks – Sex-o Olympic-o – Review

June 1, 2009

They’re supposed to be funny & wild, and push the limitations of the members’ main gigs. But this is just more mediocre Ministry, and that’s Ministry’s job.

Ministry – Cover Up – Review

February 1, 2009

Aside from bombast and a drum machine on crack, the arrangements aren’t much different. Ministry can sing, and don’t have to dumb down “the hard parts.”

Ministry – The Last Sucker – Review

September 1, 2007

After the kick-ass Rio Grande Blood and Houses of the Mole, Ministry end their mighty reign with the auto-pilot effort, The Last Sucker.

Stormtroopers of Death – Rise of the Infidels – Review

August 10, 2007

Four unreleased studio tracks, with 20 live cuts. Sub-standard S.O.D. (two originals, two covers) with crap production, like ProTooled Pro-Pain out-takes.

Bad Brains – Build A Nation – Review

July 20, 2007

Many camps took Bad Brains’ lead, from Fishbone to watered-down 311 and Sublime. But few have produced a work as edifying and emotionally whole as this.

Method of Destruction – Red White and Screwed – Review

June 1, 2007

M.O.D. without the humor is as monotone/hardcore as Pro-Pain, which is to say boring and unbearable. Billy Milano sounds like he needs to shit.

Glenn Danzig – The Lost Tracks of Danzig – Review

June 1, 2007

26 tracks compiling all the “leftovers” that didn’t fit with the “theme” of a particular album. It stands up as dated Danzig material, which is all of it.

The Delgados – Universal Audio – Review

January 24, 2005

The band stripped it back down to the beginning – guitars, bass, drums, and vocals – albeit with a developed sense of songwriting and plenty of piano.

Clutch – Live at the Googolplex – Review

October 22, 2003

The product of a road-hardened band of warriors that plays in the spaces as much as in the deftly distorted bulldozer rock chords around them.

Wellwater Conspiracy – Review

October 22, 2003

The fourth Wellwater Conspiracy album and I still don’t get it. The only way to succeed at poppy psychedelic rock is to write incredible songs. WWC do not.

Wolfpac – Evil Is – Review

June 4, 2001

I’s horrible. I get hives just thinking about it. Avoid this album. Unless yer a genetically-deficient glue sniffer. If so, you’ll probably like it.

S.O.D. – Stormtroppers of Death – Review

April 1, 2000

The spirit was undeniable, and the record went on to move a million pancakes worldwide, resulting in this reissue, and last year, a reunion record.

SNFU – Let’s Get It Right the First Time – Review

January 1, 1999

They pepper Let’s Get It Right the First Time with chestnuts like “I Forget,” “Bobbit,” and “Eric’s Had a Bad Day.”

Sweaty Nipples – Bug Harvest – Review

February 1, 1995

Combines the best ideas from progressive metal and mainstream into a seamless, original sound. They switch instruments mid-song in their live performance.

Sweaty Nipples – Review

June 1, 1994

Three people yell, two play bass, two play guitar, two play drums, all make nonsensical statements to the press as to the underlying meaning of existence.
