Rantology
If your idea of prime MINISTRY is the maudlin goth rock of "Halloween", or worse yet, the twee new wave of "With Sympathy", chances are you gave up on Al Jourgensen long before this release. If you got your fill of his mechanized metal drone years ago, nothing on "Rantology" is going to make you ...October 12, 2005

Shovel Headed Kill Machine
Talk about not missing a beat! Three-fifths of the band turn over, Gary Holt lets out a chuckle, and then proceeds to rip off heads and shit down throats with "Shovel Headed Kill Machine". The big question in my mind was how the EXODUS sound would change with the departure of Steve "Zetro" Souza. I...September 25, 2005

Amerijuanican
Give me bands like WEEDEATER and BONGZILLA any day of the week and I'll slurp up those over-amplified, down-tuned fuzz tones, scarred-throat vocals, and sludgified mania like a jailed militant who just ended a hunger strike. I didn't know that WEEDEATER vocalist/bassist Dixie Dave Collins had contri...September 25, 2005

Ogre Tones
Call it the ENUFF Z'NUFF syndrome. A few unfortunate haircuts at the beginning of a band's existence, a well-meant but mismatched tour or two, and a band spends its life consigned to a genre where it fits and functions about as well as COURTNEY LOVE's chastity belt. Many metalheads think they're wea...September 19, 2005

It's Time to Decide
You've got to give credit to Austin, Texas' AT ALL COST for pumping life into a lethargic metalcore genre. The band has gotten very creative on its debut full-length, "It's Time to Decide", injecting vocoder effects into clean vocal harmonizing, tossing about synthesizer doodling, throwing in non-tr...September 19, 2005

Memento Mori
Well goddamn, here's case where the press release comparisons to early Swedish death metal are right on point! Take the motoring riff blasts of DISMEMBER, UNLEASHED, and early ENTOMBED, blend in the grime of a HIGH ON FIRE, add a quart of sludge, and you've got Atlanta's WITHERED. Now that's a damn...September 19, 2005
