Perhaps it is the purists that haven't invested any time in the band's four albums for juvenile reasons that in...May 1, 2012

Devil's Messenger
"You've seemed to find your place…", reads a line from "Hollowed", the final cut from THE DEVASTATED's "Devil's Messenger". Sounds rather pleasant, even hopeful, doesn't it? Here's the rest of that line. "…underneath a rock after it smashed your fucking face". Derisive? Yes. Cynical? Beyond belief....May 1, 2012

XI: The Days Before Tomorrow
The last time I'd even thought about LILLIAN AXE was somewhere around the release of 2002 comeback live album "Live 2002" and even then it took a bit to jog my memory about the Louisiana band. Having paid exactly zero attention to the group during its late '80s/early '90s active period I remember th...May 1, 2012

City of Steel
Man oh man, is it ever tough to distinguish one's retro thrash metal band from the army of retro thrash metal bands currently waging guerilla warfare in various continental hot spots. Outside of forays into the progressive reaches of the genre there just aren't many places to go that haven't already...October 17, 2011

On "Bilateral" Norwegian boundary pushers LEPROUS pull out all the stops, then drive the vehicle past all of them, somehow in several different directions at once. Though listener satisfaction may not al...September 6, 2011

A Godlike Inferno
Let's get this straight.

Apocalyptic
Here is one of those random selections from the promo stacks of little known record labels and independent bands. As it turns out, the selection was a good one. Reading "thrashcore" in the press release is misleading, as much of what is heard on RISING DARK's "Apocalyptic" is about as thrashcore as...July 27, 2011
