But if anyone can win over the doubters, it's Marty Friedman. Perhaps most celebrated for his tenure as Dave Mustaine's six-string foil...May 15, 2024

Spleen & Goad
They may have emerged from a flourishing stoner rock and doom scene back in the mid-'90s, but IRON MONKEY were always more concerned with broken teeth and bloody fists than they were with bong hits.

Lucifer V
When the Devil invented rock 'n' roll, this is almost certainly what he had in mind. Not entirely surprisingly, "Lucifer V" is the fifth album by LUCIFER. Like its predecessors (doomy debut "Lucifer" possibly excepted),  it sounds like a candlelit riot in some ornately decorated but seedy dive b...January 24, 2024
