Ahead of the Game

I suppose there was not enough room on the Nuclear Blast roster for two traditional hardcore bands, so Denmark's BARCODE went after releasing a slamming album called "Showdown" and AGNOSTIC FRONT stayed. Now on Italy's Scarlet Records, BARCODE returns with its fifth album, "Ahead of the Game", a mea...

U.T.D.

The worst stereotypical excesses of one-man black metal bands are on infamous display here, as Norway's FURZE clatter through eight tracks of atonal, horribly-recorded, comical noise collages that have more in common with hallucinogenic musique concrete experiments than anything resembling actual so...
