Album Review: Thunderkraft – Totentanz

I love to review new forms of metal and try to understand the roots of the music they are making. I call it the Sabbath factor. Listening to every form of metal I try to pick out a piece that harkens back to the day when this massive metal machine started. Sometimes it easier...

Celldweller gives us Chapter 4

It wasn’t very long ago that we did a profile piece on CELLDWELLER or more specifically the life blood of the band KLAYTON: . I’m not going to lie to you; that story raised a lot of controversy on the site with emails coming in fast and furious wondering why we were covering...

Houston: Mechanical Sunshine

I have to admit HOUSTON wasn’t on my radar until I got the promo material a few weeks ago. The reason for that might simply be because you can’t really define what their sound is. Sure it has metal, but there are hard rock riffs, industrial sounds, gothic flavors, and numerous other things we...

Marc Broude: Psychological Warfare

Broude’s music seems to be labeled as experimental metal, but for the sake of keeping my rage bottled up and not ranting at all the different labels we have, I’m going to stick with nu-metal as many of the elements are the same. Samples and back beats over traditional metal instruments and singing seems...

Bridge the Gap with Celldweller

Imagine going to a club and head banging your ass off to some heavy guitars and hard edged vocals that make you want the smash the hell out of something. While rocking this out you look over and beside you is some punk kid jumping up and down and screaming his head off. Just...

Stonecollar: Trial By Fire

Under normal circumstanced I would bore you with tons of details about the origin of the band Stonecollar. They hail from Cape Town South Africa and I consider that very cool, but I couldn’t get by their old school guitar driven rock to be bothered looking up metal bands from South Africa. The fact...

Music As A Weapon Rolls Into Canada: Take 2

It was close to 2 years ago that Disturbed, All That Remains, Skindred, and Art of Dying rolled into Halifax and with a 20 minute interview launched this site to a place we didn’t think possible.  We have continued to grow through hard work and amazing readers, but Disturbed and the Music As A...

2 6 1 Reasons to Bang to Back From Ashes

Reason #1: just kidding.  The 261 is the name of the new album, and it alone is reason enough to check out these Arizona based multi-genre based metal stars.    Jason (vocals), Mikey (guitar), Anthony (guitar), David (bass), and Pete (drums) have figured out something that many band these days are struggling with:  how to...

It Does Cross Over – Clandestine’s: The Invalid

When I say “cross over,” I mean the album is essentially a hard rock album, but at times crosses over into the metal genre with some very technical drum work and death metal like screams out of front woman June Park. There are a lot of bands out there that put a / in...
