What if you threw The Soft Moon, Joy Division, and Godflesh in a blender and set it to “liquefy”? The results might sound a little like All Your Sisters whose brand of synthetic goth rawk shines on their new full-length, Uncomfortable Skin. [Read more…]
It’s Not Night: It’s Space Bring Cerebral Heaviness To Unrelenting Our Birth Is But A Sleep And A Forgetting
2016 is turning out to be a great year for the riffage. So far both Miss Lava and Gozu (To name a few standouts) have released albums schooling the kids on how to rawk properly. Not to be outdone by their peers, It’s Not Night: It’s Space’s latest is equally impressive. It’s also quite the coincidence that all three bands are either former or current members of the Small Stone Records roster. [Read more…]
(hed) p.e. Rediscover The Magic, Deliver A Legacy Album On FOREVER!
I’ll be honest: I haven’t listened to a thing (hed) p.e. has put out in almost a decade. I have fond memories of Blackout and still listen to it regularly but after that they became a band I wasn’t interested in for some reason. Forever! is the album that’s going to change my current status quo with the band along many longtime listeners as well as a whole new generation of heavy music fans. [Read more…]
Al Fucking Jourgensen: A Rock And Roll Fables Conversation
Ministry’s not quite over, RevCo has new material in the works, Lard will be back, and most importantly: Surgical Meth Machine has been unveiled to the masses. [Read more…]
Another Lost Year Construct Hard Rock Gold On Alien Architect
Another Lost Year make music that doesn’t exist anymore. Stick with me for a minute. Those hallowed days (Or not so hallowed depending on the kind of music fan you are) of anthemic radio rock that came from 3 Doors Down, Staind, and even Puddle of Mudd (In their early years) are gone. Aaron Lewis went country, Wes Scantlin went crazy, and 3 Doors Down went boring. All the more reason why a band like Another Lost Year is NEEDED in 2016. [Read more…]
Gojira Exits The Metal Stratosphere On Defining Magma
This is the one, people. You know when Mastodon had that record that really divided fans? That apparently crossed the line between what’s suposedly metal and what’s something else? This is the one that’s gonna do it for Gojira. It’s short (Only eight songs if you don’t count the two brief instrumentals), it’s concise, and there’s actual singing! But it’s still wholly a Gojira record. Trust me. [Read more…]
Gozu Delivers Rawk Excellence With Revival (Album Review)
When you think “Boston bands”, outfits like Aerosmith, Godsmack (Sorry!), The Cars, and The Mighty Mighty Bosstones usually come to mind. Stellar bands in their own right and should make any Masshole proud of the tunes coming out of the state. Me? I’m proudest when I think of bands like Cave In, Converge, and Isis. And even prouder over the past few years with bands like Motherboar, Summoner, Doomriders, and the focus of this column: Gozu. [Read more…]
Hank & Cupcakes Bring Sonic Ecstasy To Your Earholes On Cheap Thrill
The recent move from Brooklyn to Atlanta seems to have had a profound effect on the duo of Hank & Cupcakes and their sound as evidenced by Cheap Thrill, their compelling new collection of tunes. [Read more…]
Katatonia Return With Beyond Epic The Fall of Hearts
My introduction to Katatonia was sheer luck. I was waiting for an interview with Devin Townsend at the Worcester Palladium a few years back while then touring mates Katatonia had just begun their soundcheck. [Read more…]
Combichrist Annihilate Expectations With Vicious Industrial Beast This Is Where Death Begins
One quick perusal through the comments section on Facebook after the announcement and a sampler were posted for This Is Where Death Begins, Combichrist’s 8th album, and it’s pretty obvious that the Combi camp falls into two very passionate categories: [Read more…]
