Scour is a weird animal. Mixing a variety of genres yet grounded in none of them, Phil Anselmo’s band of brothers take Metal, Grindcore, Black Metal, and more and fuse it into this unstoppable, indefinable force. On their newest release, and final part of the trilogy preceded by The Grey and The Red EP’s, they channel that energy into six unrelenting bursts of unforgettable Metal mayhem.

2020 is a garbage year. We can all agree on that, yeah? One of the shining lights, at least in my little corner of the universe, has been the abundance of surprise releases in the entertainment industry. Especially in music. Just recently saw eclectic Electronic impresario Tom Vek (Check it here) and the legendary Mina Caputo (Listen here) both release new records and just before that was Feminenergy by former Manhole/My Ruin/Tura Satana front person extraordinaire Tairrie B. And it too owns.
[Read more…]Singles! Stone Deaf, “Cloven Hoof”
Looking for that sweet spot in between Lullabies To Paralyze and Era Vulgaris? Or maybe an alternate timeline where Nick Oliveri never left QOTSA? Then you might wanna check out Colorado’s Stone Deaf and their latest slab of sonic sexiness that is “Cloven Hoof”.
[Read more…]Why Try? Enlighten And Entice On Exciting Just Fine EP
Why Try? make the kind of music that not only demands to be heard but also demands repeated listens. With each listen of their upcoming EP, Just Fine, layers are continually pulled back to reveal sounds that are more delicate and more delightful with these subtle intricacies becoming more pronounced upon each play through. Intrigued yet?
[Read more…]PIG Pounce With Packed Collection Of Potent New Pork On Powerful Pain Is God
With an association as prolific as the one that Raymond Watts had with KMFDM, it’s inevitable that there will be comparisons from time to time. While Watts’ work as <PIG> is definitely its’ own monster, the latest offering in this current second coming of the Industrial giant is easily Watts’ Nihil. Filled with all the substance to back up that larger-than-life swagger, Pain Is God is a hefty record encapsulating all that’s made <PIG> great yet soaked in this mid-90’s synthetic haze.
[Read more…]Tombs Deliver Destructive Yet Dynamic Metal On Under Sullen Skies
I might’ve said this before but Tombs is a hit or miss band for me. I get what they do, I respect what they do, but it doesn’t always grab me the way Winter Hours and “Gossamer” in particular first did when I discovered the band back in 2009/2010. That said, Under Sullen Skies grabs me. Their most concise and precise record to date, Under Sullen Skies is the one that finally captures Tombs’ more dynamic and experimental moments (The All Empires Fall EP especially comes to mind) and expertly fuses it to their original take on Black Metal.
[Read more…]I Was There! FOZZY, Capturing Judas Livestream Event
Let it be known, as a regular concertgoer I am not a fan of livestreamed events. I’ve been supporting and promoting my favorites throughout the pandemic by purchasing what I can in merch and vinyl (And the odd one off CD here and there) but there’s just something about sitting in front of my five-year old laptop and staring at a screen of a band I love a million miles away performing their hearts out to a ghost audience that doesn’t do it for me after trying with Clutch, a band I’ve seen a ridiculous amount of times, earlier in the year.
[Read more…]Chaos E.T. Sexual Conjure Worldly Industrial On Monumental Only Human Crust
Big on grooves and big on atmosphere, the latest from France’s Chaos E.T. Sexual is an experience to listen to. One of those albums where you really need to take it in as a whole and not just in pieces, Only Human Crust encompasses this gorgeous merging of World music and Industrial to take listeners on a truly unique auditory journey.
[Read more…]Singles! VOWWS, “Stay Where You Are”
The final VOWWS single of 2020 is both a blessing and a curse. Or more bittersweet, really, because on the one hand: Yaye! New VOWWS! But on the other, more edge-of-your-seat holding your breath nervousness for that highly anticipated follow-up to Under The World to materialize. Growing up sans internet I’ve learned patience when it comes to waiting for new music from my favorites so I’ll gladly hold out hope on what’s to come as should the rest of VOWWS’ fan base after hearing “Stay Where You Are”.
[Read more…]Napalm Death’s Shane Embury Resurrects Blood From the Soul, Injects New Blood Into The Soul For DSM-5
Take the mouthpiece from Converge, the low end from the legendary Nasum, Megadeth’s current skin smasher, put together by the guitarist from Napalm Death, one of the world’s premiere Death Metal outfits, and you have one of the most intriguing outfits of 2020.
