Annihilation of the Wicked

When Karl Sanders said "be prepared to be crushed" in reference to "Annihilation of the Wicked", he was not exaggerating. I'd venture to say that this is the heaviest NILE album to date, perhaps in part due to Neil Kernon's outstanding (as usual) production, one that brings out the sheer brutality a...

The Code is Red…Long Live the Code

I'm continually amazed at NAPALM DEATH's ability to not only stay relevant in the extreme music scene, but also the way in which the band manages to stand out in the grindcore and death metal genres. The last two full-length albums of original material, "Enemy of the Music Business" and "Order of th...

Lifesblood For the Downtrodden

CROWBAR did irreparable damage to themselves, if ya ask me, back in the mid-'90s. After they emerged with their tar-caked, ham-fisted big-riff sound and vein-straining vocals, they spent a good while coasting.
