  • To Separate The Flesh From The Bones “Utopia Sadistica”

    The fuck? Hell just fucking froze over. No, I’m god damn serious: this album is the seventh seal of the Apocalypse. It’s a fucking side project of dudes from Amorphis, Ajattara, and H.I.M., yet it’s actually decent grind. Reread that if you need to, I just did several times. Some of the worst acts in [...]

  • Torsofuck & Lymphatic Phlegm “Split”

    I’m not sure how a cover featuring a beheaded corpse getting porked by an Asian makes it past the censors but I’m glad it did. Finland’s Torsofuck gets things started with an updated version of Catasexual Urge Motivation’s electronic fueled savagery. CUM used the drum machine as an advantage - not a limitation [...]

  • Torsofuck “Erotic Diarrhea Fantasy”

    Ever listen to an album once or twice and completely dismiss it, only to come back to it several months later, give it a last chance, and all the sudden end up wondering what you ever had against it in the first place? That’s pretty much what I got with the latest Torsofuck CD, Erotic [...]

  • Stratovarius “Infinite”

    Some people would think the heaps of hate mail I receive is what is constantly rocking me towards the edge, pushing me to, not only end this site and zine, but to also blow my brains out, painting bits of my skull against the ceiling in a post-modern impressionistic piece of art. I’ll be [...]

  • Rotten Sound “Exit”

    Nowadays, Finland is possibly one of the biggest mixed blessings in the metal industry. For every one decent band that comes out of the extreme metal loins of that country, 27 more are anally discharged right into the lime light. Everyday after high school lets out, millions upon millions of small prepubescent fifteen year-olds flock [...]

  • Rotten Sound “Drain”

    Back in 1997 I received my first promo pack from Repulse Records. Bundled among the releases was Rotten Sound’s Under Pressure. I found it to be an average release who’s highlight was the impressive range of vocalist Keijo Bagge who sang with a death metal grunt, black metal screech and hardcore yell, blending [...]

  • Morbid Savouring “Insensitivicious”

    This is the meanest thing I’ve heard in years. Morbid Savouring rape and roll through 29 tracks of the most offensive porn grind available. These guys must have been raped for breakfast daily through their developmental years because it’s almost hard to believe that a woman bore such hateful beasts. Completely unhindered [...]

  • Lordi “The Arockalypse”

    For those barely paying attention to the music business as a whole, Lordi won the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest, which was "shocking" since said contest tends to favour Céline Dion, ABBA, Katrina and the Waves and other such monsters of rock. Lordi have parlayed that win into a North American domestic release for The [...]

  • Let Me Dream “Medley Rain”

    Self-described as melodic pop-goth music, Let Me Dream’s Medley Rain CD is a thankfully short four-track album with a running time of less than fifteen minutes. The opening, title, track is a very slow, melodic track with near-grunge sounding guitaring with high pitched keyboards and terrible Pete Steele-wannabe vocals mixed with terrible operatic whines. [...]

  • Impaled Nazarene “Nihil”

    Impaled Nazarene has been consistent with their metal for the last several years, now carrying into the new millenium with Nihil, their sixth full length album. Nihil follows the same relative pattern of 1998’s Rapture, chock full of some more good melodic riffs, simple and precise drumming, short songs and a chaotic Motorhead feel [...]
