Barrel Bones – Shake-Rattle-Roll
…the band I most think of in comparison to Barrel Bones is one of my favorites, namely The Gaslight Anthem.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Dysgnostic – Eternal Recurrence
Like a serpent slithering forth from some dark corner, Scar Echoes crawls forth, reptilian and threatening.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Devenial Verdict – The Contemptor
Listening to these eight tracks requires a willingness to enter a harsh world, but the payoff is worth it.
TAPE TRADE REVIEW: Had – Had
…an entrancing, yet murky doomed out death metal sound, as if some horror of hell has managed to crawl forth from the sewers and is now hunting for flesh.
TRACK PREMIERE: Chest Rockwell – The Cartesian Theater
The groove entrances you, even as instruments are added, key changes happen, and the vocals embed themselves into your brainstem.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK PREMIERE: Morbid Evils – Tormented
The albums that hit you this hard are few and far between, but the Finnish trio give us another worthy entry.
INTERVIEW: Drunk MFers
…we are back and this time we are not going to make any discounts to our fuck off attitude to the shitty masses and their trends.
INTERVIEW: Manos Six + The Muddy Devil
Without moonshine, nothing of these would be possible…hehehe…
It’s a hell of an era for the Dayglo Abortions to deliver Hate Speech
The first three songs wrap together like fingers into a fist to strike with thought-provoking potency. If they were a single, it should have been nominated for a Juno or a Pulitzer.
Black Braid – I
If I were to have more children (I’m not), bits of the album would probably be embedded in their DNA.
