Makeoutmusic – Get off my Soapbox – Review

January 1, 2007

Glad to know unsigned melodic punk bands can still palm-mute and rampage. Always kind of afraid bubblegum punk and NOFX-style riffery will die off.

Maaster Gaiden – Like It Never Happened – Review

January 1, 2007

Good stuff here. Lots of manic energy and non-stop garage punk riffing. Simple and effective.

Love Me Destroyer – The Things Around Us Burn – Review

January 1, 2007

Tours with Planes Mistaken for Stars and A Wilhelm Scream, and this outing was recorded by a guy who used to be in Fear Before the March of Flames.

Lovedrug – Everything Starts Where It Ends – Review

January 1, 2007

People reference Radiohead and Muse cuz there’s something British about the high, trembling vocals. A powerhouse of a singer, with strong pop rock back up.

Lordi – The Arockalypse – Review

January 1, 2007

Whitesnake, Zodiac Mindwarp, Gwar, and Blind Guardian chopped up and sewn back together with a big cock swagger, a toothy smile, and a penchant for buggery.

Lord 13 – Review

January 1, 2007

Debut from this Greek stoner rock band. Mid-tempo roll, like Sabbath’s “Children of the Grave,” which “Fillin’ the Feeling” lifts.

Logjam – Stumped – Review

January 1, 2007

David Lee Roth’s “Yankee Rose” becomes “Yankee Trombone.” Show tunes, trombone solos, carnival metal, punk pop, and countrified sister-fucking all on one CD.

Lodown – Black Horse – Review

January 1, 2007

Stoner groove moments, total metal power, a kinda Sebastian Bach snarl, and some glorious dark rock sleaze, like if The Crüe were from Detroit, and pissed.

Lifetime – Review

January 1, 2007

Classic Lifetime, still great after all these years and all those imitators, both good and bad. Fast, catchy, and melodic.

Laethora – March of the Parasite – Review

January 1, 2007

Debut from this brutal death metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden, featuring guitarists from Dark Tranquillity and Provenance. Straight-up death/grind.
