Bears, Mayors, Scraps and Bones
A lot may have gone into the sonic stew that is Canada's CANCER BATS — everything from horror punk to sci-fi thrash to PANTERA groove metal to basement-show hardcore — but it's all boiled down here to its most rudimentary elements, reduced to its primal basics. CANCER BATS are all about simple forwa...June 20, 2010

Heirs to Thievery
This is exactly the kind of album that MISERY INDEX has been moving toward making over the last several years. A comparatively more varied affair called "Traitors" served as the bridge between the ferocious "Discordia" and the equally ferocious (ah hell, they're all ferocious) "Heirs to Thievery", t...June 20, 2010

The Underworld Regime
The lengthy and complicated GORGOROTH legal battle was the messiest of messes that left one wondering what good would ever come out of it. One album that emerged from the smoke and ashes of the dispute was originally intended, in one form or another, to be a GORGOROTH and then a GOD SEED album that...June 20, 2010

Edge Of Spirit
It seems that veteran hardcore act EDGE OF SPIRIT is a pretty big deal in its native Japan, as well as having made a sizeable splash in areas outside of it.

Dark Ages
The Great White North's BISON B.C. had some big shoes to fill following up the beastly juggernaut that is "Quiet Earth", one that afforded them the right to claim status as Canada's answer to – depending on who you ask — MASTODON or HIGH ON FIRE. The good news is that "Dark Ages" slips comfortably ....June 20, 2010

Disgust at the Status Quo
I hadn't heard much from the U.K. fuzz bastards in quite some time; if memory serves, the last release that scraped the ole eardrums was the Billy Anderson-produced "Confessions of a Man, Mad Enough to Live Amongst Beasts". Never getting the recognition due the band outside of Europe, "Disgust at th...June 20, 2010

Say Uncle
Having missed this completely when it came out, my only exposure to UNCLE SLAM being tepid final album "When God Dies", I owe Matt at Tribunal a big debt for resurrecting this moldy oldie. On the face of it, you could say that this west coast crossover thrash fell through the cracks back in the ...June 20, 2010

The Profit Feeds
Southern Lord isn't screwing around with this recent batch of roster additions highlighting what they've dubbed "the future of hardcore." THE SECRET and the lordly BLACK BREATH alone drive the point home. "The Profit Feeds" from Midwesterners MASAKARI is the here and now of the rabble and offers fan...June 20, 2010
