When the Screams Come
"It's by the grace of God that I'm alive at all", states iconic vocalist Bobby Liebling during the 10-minute interview segment of "When the Screams Come", the first DVD in PENTAGRAM's storied 40-year history. Clean, sober, and sincerely grateful for the fans that kept believing and the loved ones th...October 17, 2011

Forever Abomination
Continuing to make metal that is the product of its collective influences in a way that is somehow unique and vibrant, Ohio's proud heavy metal flag-wavers SKELETONWITCH have sharpened its songwriting to a fine point on "Forever Abomination". Still resolutely thrash-fueled, traditionally rooted, and...October 17, 2011

Sympathetic Resonance
Shimmering melodies in multiple forms; sections during which emotion and music are inseparable, soaring so high that chills are a guarantee; a rhythm section able to steer the sharpest of curves without missing a single muscular beat; and riff/bass combos that punch and pull like a mutated form of T...October 17, 2011

I've Failed You
When KITTIE mainstay and vocalist/guitarist Morgan Lander unleashes that burly scream of "You're ugly…just like me! Bring me down!" during "Ugly" on new album "I've Failed You", you'll damn sure believe it. The aggression is real. So is the passion for making the heavy music to which she's been dedi...October 17, 2011

Playground of the Damned
If you're looking for the more complexly arranged, epic side of MANILLA ROAD, then move right on past "Playground of the Damned". However (and that's a big "however"),a comparatively streamlined approach to a MANILLA ROAD album might still be considered challenging to your average traditional heavy...October 17, 2011

Crimen Laesae Majestatis Divinae
A little late on the review, but no reason for you to overlook PORTRAIT's "Crimen Laesae Majestatis Divinae". Stop all the petty bickering and inconsequential quibbling over the value placed upon originality in assessing a heavy metal recording because when the material is this well played, well wri...October 17, 2011

Evil United
With EVIL UNITED, Jason McMaster (BROKEN TEETH, WATCHTOWER, IGNITER, DANGEROUS TOYS) can add one more band that's not exactly like any of his current/past bands to that ever-lengthening parenthetical notation of hard rock and heavy metal acts. Rivaled in quality terms — at least in recent years — on...October 17, 2011

Heritage
If it weren't for the fact that Mikael Åkerfeldt and OPETH have based their entire careers on doing whatever felt right, regardless of mass acceptance potential, then it might seem fitting to say that "Heritage" is a musical representation of a band that has earned the right to create whatever kind...October 10, 2011

"We're calling the album 'Chickenfoot III' because it's so good, the songs are so tight, it's like we jumped right past having to make a second record". You've got to love the guy's good natured, PMA (posit...October 10, 2011

Age of the Joker
I was starting to get concerned about EDGUY after the release of 2009's "Tinnitus Sanctus", an album that sounded as though the German melodic hard rockers had lost their spirited edge and ability to pen the kind of bombastic anthems heard on supreme efforts "Rocket Ride" and "Hellfire Club". Though...October 10, 2011
