  • Proof That Americans Have Shitty Taste In Metal

    Blabbermouth reports that British goth metallers Cradle Of Filth, whose brand of gothic black metal is gayer than a Richard Simmons infomercial, have cracked the Billboard 200 charts with the release of their most recent steaming turd, Godspeed On The Devil’s Thunder. Godspeed On The Devil’s Thunder, the new album from the British extreme metal band [...]

  • Cradle Of Filth “Godspeed On The Devil’s Thunder”

    I can’t believe it. I utterly can’t believe it. Cradle of Filth actually managed to do it. They actually managed to create the gayest thing I have ever heard. EVER. This is easily gayer than any of their past releases. Damnation and a Day? That thing is practically Last Days of Humanity compared to this. [...]

  • Officium Triste “Giving Yourself Away”

    And my career as a writer for Teufel’s Tomb starts in a fashion not to dissimilar to a gaggle of clown cars falling on top of my prone form after I’ve been hit with a train full of group-home escapees and nympho-fecalphilliacs. As I’m listening to Giving Yourself Away from Rotterdam’s chief musical export (I [...]

  • The Sins Of Thy Beloved “Perpetual Desolation”

    Fuck! You’d think some retarded Nuclear Blast "metal" band (Satyricon certainly comes to mind rather quickly…) would’ve taken the crown as the stupidest fucking thing in recorded history to ever emerge from guitar-based music, but you’d be barking up the wrong tree. I have enough contempt for so-called "goth metal" to fuel Thomas the tank [...]

  • Cradle Of Filth “Midian”

    This album isn’t fucking even worth a review. I don’t think I can put into words how bad this band really got. I’m not going to review this as a person who hates Cradle Of Filth because everyone likes them, that would be completely retarded and unfair of me. I try to [...]

  • Tristania “Beyond The Veil”

    The key (for me personally) to a good start in writing a successful CD review is to write down what literally comes to mind immediately when listening. Obviously not a hard concept on the surface. I happen to take this principle to extremes and make my little social commentaries because that’s exactly what [...]

  • The Sins Of Thy Beloved “Perpetual Desolation”

    It has been stated on numerous occasions that black metal is the glam metal of the 1990’s. Taking this claim seriously, The Sins Of Thy Beloved are ironically setting new standards in inanity more so with their music than their second-rate cheesy image. "Gothic metal" is THE stupidest product of the 90’s, and [...]

  • Notre Dame “Vol 1 : Le Theatre Du Vampire”

    Apparently Snowy Shaw didn’t think gothic metal was stupid enough yet. Let’s see how much I can bitch before I’m forced to shut this off. (First listen a few months ago lasted about 30 seconds. This time I somehow went through each track, at least 30 seconds but no more than 1:30… [...]

  • 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. [...]
