Death Magnetic

So here we are again, more than five years after a whole slew of you ripped me a new one for my enthusiastic review of the last and most controversial METALLICA album ever, 2003's "St. Anger". Unlike many critics — especially in the UK press — who came out equally unabashed in their praise ...

Along Came a Spider

Twenty-five studio albums? Now that is what you call a body of work! ALICE COOPER is one of a select group of artists that is able to change styles, at least partially, from one album to the next and get away with it. Just consider the diversity across albums like "Love it to Death", "From ...

Manmade Monster

Playing blatant tribute to your idols with original compositions is a risky proposition, especially when the object of praise is a revered group like the MISFITS (Danzig era, of course). Surprisingly, San Francisco's PLAN 9 pull it off reasonably well with "Manmade Monster", which consists of 13 ori...

Meanderthal

It's almost as interesting to dissect what TORCHE isn't, and why, as it is frustrating to try explain what the band is. They're not "post rock", because they write short and hooky songs, but they're not quite punk or metal either, because they manage to infuse two-and-a-half minute tracks with that...

Cornerstone of the Macabre

Three albums in and France's PHAZM have the death 'n' roll thing down to a science. Not only that, but they've managed to incorporate a range of rock 'n' roll styles into their dirty, downtuned brand of metal without any of it coming off contrived. The sinister sounds that permeate the music make th...

State of Insurgency

Based on the gripping Ed Repka cover art, you can probably guess that HEXEN's "State of Insurgency" is another in an ever-growing catalogue of recent old school thrash albums. Hell, even the record label is called Old School Metal. The good news is that the Los Angeles act is one of the better ones...

In the Name of Satan

Not completely black metal, but not exactly death metal either (nor is it really blackened death, but it's close),"In the Name of Satan" by Massachusetts' BABY STAB HORROR is a tight, punishing, and groovy sophomore effort. Besides, with a name like BABY STAB HORROR and a title like "In the Name of...

Fire For Hire

In a just world, the members of SUPAGROUP would be doing some hard time in the clink for their willful and aggravated humping of Bon Scott's remains, and when they got out, they'd spend a few years on probation for the dipshit VILLAGE PEOPLE thrift store getups they're self-consciously wearing on th...
