War Zone
And so begins the old debate about the merits of sticking to the tried and true versus musical progression.

Cast Shadows on Dragons
Featuring former members of WHEN DREAMS DIE, "Cast Shadows on Dragons" by ROBOTS AND EMPIRE is a strange mixture of stoner rock heft and spacey doom that has its moments, but too often loses momentum because of its unevenness. Clearly rooted in BLACK SABBATH and bands such as THE MELVINS, as well as...June 18, 2006

Arrangements for Fulminating Vective
Halfway through "Arrangements for Fulminating Vective" by St. Louis' LYE BY MISTAKE and it was difficult not to think in terms of been-there-done-that. All that over the top doodling and DILLINGER-meets-jazz-fusion chaos is fine and dandy, but a tad tired now with bands as different as EPHEL DUATH a...June 12, 2006

State of Disgrace
The problem is not that HOURCAST's "State of Disgrace" is bland, radio-friendly, nu-rooted modern rock/metal. Oh wait, that is at least part of the problem. The big problem is that the light-to heavy (relatively speaking) arrangements are tolerable if the songwriting is especially catchy or the band...June 12, 2006

…Of Entropy and Life Denial…
Is it too much to ask that a black metal band remain true to their original lethal vision and retain high production values? France's MERRIMACK doesn't think so — they offer up a furious slab of unadulterated, vicious black metal anger on "Of Entropy and Life Denial". And it sounds HUGE, with big, l...June 5, 2006
