Return of the Reaper

German legends GRAVE DIGGER are back and so is their trusty pal, The Reaper. As one of the most tireless acts in metal history, GRAVE DIGGER deserve some sort of award for releasing their albums with incredible consistency, most of them coming every other year. Co-founding vocalist Chris Boltendahl...

To Whom It May Concern

So what do you do as a band when every proto, crunk and metalcore band in the land has milked the snot out of the breakdown? You toss it into a cyber-grinder and build an entire album around it. Queens-based SYLAR are looking to shake things up in the contemporary hardcore leagues, so a hand ...

They like their metal fast 'n hard in Philly and from those streets comes TRENCH ROT, a war-themed thrash act pounding out a brackish sound cultivated from BOLT THROWER, Scandinavian death metal and the old New Renaissance label acts, i.e. WEHRMACHT and ARTILLERY. TRENCH ROT's debut album, "Necronom...

Review

Death by Burning

I'm admittedly dubious about one-to-two man bands and more often than not find something lacking with them, more so in the two piece department. Usually these bare-boned endeavors are found in black and prog metal. There are exceptions to the rule, of course, like JUCIFER, WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM...

Battle Maximus

No one in their right mind would ever accuse GWAR of being sentimentalists. Spend a mere two minutes in conversation with Oderus Urungus, expect to be served a litany of obscenity, contempt for Mother Earth and offers of sodomy. That's the character Dave Brockie pushes to the nth along with his grue...
