Death Rock

  • Entombed “Serpent Saints (The Ten Amendments)”

    In the late 80s and early 90s the death metal scene was essentially created by a handful of talented, creative musicians with a love for the extreme. Nearly every “must own” death metal release was recorded between 1988 and 1992. Bands like Cannibal Corpse, Carcass, Obituary, Deicide and Entombed created the sound that [...]

  • Night In Gales “Nailwork”

    Germany’s Night In Gales is one in a long line of melodic Gothenburg-style death metal bands signed to Nuclear Blast Records. While obvious comparisons can be made to Dark Tranquillity, In Flames and At The Gates, the band incorporates enough of their own sound to stick out slightly from the melodic death-rock pack. [...]

  • In Flames “Soundtrack To Your Escape”

    Umm… what? I don’t quite get what this album is supposed to be about. Is it supposed to be a return to In Flames of old, or is it supposed to be nu-metal taken to the next level of lameness? The latest release by Sweden’s In Flames is like a journey of [...]

  • In Flames “Come Clarity”

    Originally, I wasn’t going to review this. I was originally not even going to listen to this, but rather pretend it didn’t exist and that a mythical "Whoracle 2: The Fellowship of the Two Decent Gothenburg Kings’ Return" was forever in development hell and that is why there were no new good In Flames albums. [...]

  • In Flames “Colony”

    They should take the tank from the cover of the last Marduk album, line up all of the bands in Sweden and CRUSH THEM ALL! Why must we be bothered by all of this crap? From Dark Tranquillity, to Opeth, to Marduk, to this horrible band In Flames, we are constantly bothered by [...]

  • In Flames “Clayman”

    This is not death metal. I don’t care what anyone says, this is most definitely not death metal. Death metal is aggressive. Death metal is fueled by hate. Death metal is a musical release of pent up anger and frustration. Death metal is a style of music that when you [...]

  • Gandalf “Rock Hell”

    This album literally makes me cringe. If you were unfortunate enough to hear Digital Dimension’s Power From The North : Sweden Rocks The World then you’ll understand why after hearing this album. Take Scandinavian death metal, somewhat in the vein of newer In Flames with gravel throated vocals, mix it with some Pride [...]
