Embrace the Gutter
The tendency by many will be to take the lazy route and refer to THE AUTUMN OFFERING's "Embrace the Gutter" as metalcore. Why?

Wolfmother
A dollop of SABBATH riffing, a whole slopload of ZEP crunge and yowling about mystical bullshit and evil women, and just the right amount of greasy white boy funk, DEEP PURPLE organ noodling, and wide-eyed top-of-the-mountain pseudo-serious bare-chested shaman posturing. That's the formula for the b...May 3, 2006

The Phoenix Throne
The only thing I remember about DEAD TO FALL's "Villainy and Virtue" (the Chicago band's second release) was that it barely left an impression on me. Not bad, not great, just kind of ho-hum metalcore that could be taken or left. As such, my expectations were not very high for "The Phoenix Throne". A...April 24, 2006

Spine of God
I remember seeing MONSTER MAGNET at the State Theater in Detroit, Michigan sometime around 1991.

One of the great injustices of extreme music history is that SADUS are known primarily as a secretarial pool for bigger bands.
