  • Deicide “Scars Of The Crucifix”

    You all are familiar with the infamous name of Deicide. Widely regarded as a pioneer in the genre of death metal, Deicide has struck a chord with many extreme music fans, positive and negative. I’ve been guilty of hating this band beyond its wonderful output of utter crap the past few years and [...]

  • Vulgar Pigeons “Imperialism”

    Swooping in like a grinding…well a pigeon. The intro track is so good with the pigeon sounds and off kilter instruments. It’s somewhat cheesy but fits well with the vibe these lads bring to the table. For the most part I can’t stand intro-instrumental tracks but I’d be a complete liar if [...]

  • Usurper “Twilight Dominion”

    I was interested in checking this band out for awhile, seeing as they’re from Chicago and I’m only a few hours south. Maybe some home state pride you know? There isn’t much to appreciate from this state besides what comes out of Chicago. The rest of Illinois is basically cornfields, meth labs, [...]

  • The Dillinger Escape Plan “Miss Machine”

    Blah blah their first album in 5 years. Blah blah they did an EP with Mike Patton. Blah blah they have a new lead singer. I figured I’d skim through the crap that every lame ass reviewer writes to describe Miss Machine. If you want to read that shit, check out [...]

  • Swarrrm “Nise Kyuseishu Domo (Thee Imitation Messiahs)”

    I’ve been blown away the past couple years by the astounding quality of extreme music coming from Asia and more specifically Japan, where Swarrrm are based. Swarrrm is a band that is hard to categorize, which is something I love and look for in bands. They mix elements of grind, hardcore, vocals that [...]

  • Rune “The End Of Nothing”

    Don’t ever listen to this album if you cannot take the shit life deals out. The music contained within just might give the push you need to blow your worthless brains out. Yeah, I’m being melodramatic but this album makes me feel like there is no hope and the world is huge, swirling [...]

  • Phobia “Grind Your Fucking Head In”

    This band needs no introduction as they’ve been churning out some of the most pissed off grind for many years. Good thing this album is only about 20 minutes because I feel my attention span getting shorter and shorter. I’ve quit smoking bud so I’m lost as to why this is happening. [...]

  • Necrophagist “Epitaph”

    With all they hype surrounding this band; you’d think it felt like you got laid after listening to Epitaph or even the previous album and recent Willowtip reissue of Onset Of Putrefaction. Is death metal that stagnant or is the band that good? Various webzines and print sources have touted this as a [...]

  • Naglfar “Sheol”

    Naglar’s latest album Sheol has been receiving favorable and sometimes outstanding reviews from distinguished metal journalists all over. Many are claiming this is one of the top ten albums of 2003. Well, I am definitely not distinguished and this album is horrendous. Every single track runs together to provide a nice and [...]

  • Morbid Angel “Heretic”

    Yep, Morbid Angel has another album out to continue their legacy of alphabetizing their titles and they’re on the letter H. Stop the madness! Seriously, what a gay concept. I’m not sure if it is press machine hype or crap from Morbid Angel themselves and I don’t really care. It’s fucking [...]
