La Muerte
GOREFEST always had a certain charisma. Their musical evolution, while interesting, wasn't any more innovative than the bigger names of the scene, but their riffs were always killer, their tone a perfect mix of Skogsberg sludge and biting clarity. Jan-Chris de Koeijer's vocals were deep and gruff, b...January 9, 2006

I seem to recall enjoying SIX REASONS TO KILL's half of a split CD with ABSIDIA ("Morphology of Fear") more than the band's new full-length, "Reborn" (released last summer on Bastardized and now issued stateside on Tribunal). That isn't to say that the German metalcore band has fallen flat on its fa...January 2, 2006

Having just reviewed HAEMOTH's "Kontamination", it is difficult to avoid comparing and contrasting it with CRAFT's "Fuck the Universe", at least to some extent.

Synchestra
As much as I enjoy STRAPPING YOUNG LAD I always find myself enjoying THE DEVIN TOWNSEND BAND more. It is something about the way Canada's resident musical genius wraps beautiful melodies around layers of soulful wisp and intense emotion. Much like "Accelerated Evolution", "Synchestra" takes repeat l...December 19, 2005
