Friends Family Forever

I remember being thoroughly impressed with Boston's DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR opening a show for FULL BLOWN CHAOS and AGNOSTIC FRONT, as well as thinking that I really must pick up an album. I never did end up with a release from the hardcore savages, so getting a re-issue of the band's first EP is a .....

Suck Out the Poison

The first thing that strikes you about HE IS LEGEND is the unexpected sound of Schuyler Croom's melodic vocals — a little hoarse, kinda bluesy, he doesn't sound a damn thing like you'd expect a modern metal singer to. (Nerdy-critic reference #1: he bears an uncanny resemblance to the guy from ATOMIC...

Review

Black Elk

The self-titled debut from Portland, Oregon's BLACK ELK is one of those albums that seeps into the pores and wreaks havoc with the nervous system. The disc recalls the Amphetamine Reptile sound with a generous helping of bands like THE MELVINS and the JESUS LIZARD, not to mention the raggedy punkish...
