A New Shade of Black for the Soul

From what I gather, there is has been a fair amount of hype in the European press for this English band's debut full-length, "A New Shade of Black for the Soul". RISE TO ADDICTION falls squarely into the modern hard rock category, given more muscle with some tough, crunchy riffs, thanks in part to A...

The_Ascension

Treading tricky ground here, bands like OTEP being at least partially critic-proof. For example: I'd like to point out that virtually everything about this band – including the coo-to-a-bloody-scream vocals, the stuttering basslines, the overwrought breathing into the mic and then shrieking some emp...

Dead Pets

We've gotten so used to "prog" being used as a catch-all for any band who can kick a thousand notes down a flight of steps, or sport frilly shirts while diddling away on boards both key and fret. How about using it as a root of the word "progressive" — a band that takes preconceived ...

Absolution

CANNIBAL CORPSE and DEICIDE fans, prepare to either expand your horizons or get really bummed out.
