  • Trivium “Shogun”

    A new Trivium album. Whoopee. See this enthusiasm? You see this enthusiasm I can so easily contain? Yeah, I thought so.Shogun is really just an extension of The Crusade, with Trivium still producing watered-down thrash-influenced metalcore while riding the coattails of other artists. While the riffs aren’t completely blatant rip-offs like the rest of their [...]

  • Various Artists “Roadrunner United: The All-Star Sessions”

    Little history lesson for those just tuning in: back in the 80’s and early part of the 90’s, Roadrunner Records was actually a decent label for thrash and death metal. They had Sadus, Immolation, Gorguts, Sepultura, Suffocation, Cynic, Pestilence, Believer, and a bunch of other lesser acts that made them a hot commodity in the [...]

  • Various Artists “Kerrang! Presents Remastered: Metallica’s Master of Puppets Revisited”

    There’s an interesting thing about cover albums and tribute compilations. On one hand, it’s great to see new, skilled bands breathe exciting, revitalizing life into minor classics and possibly improve on bad or flawed songs. On the other hand, the massive flood of cover compilations is ridiculously swamped with sub-par covers, crappy redux songs, and [...]

  • Trivium “The Crusade”

    I figured that since I constantly crack on Trivium, I might as well be fair and put myself in the electric chair with Trivium’s new album. A lot of people probably read my rantings and have no idea what I’m going on about with my dislike of Trivium. Though no one has done so yet, [...]

  • Capharnaum “Fractured”

    I have to admit every time Jason Tipton releases a death metal album, I cringe. His taste in grind is impeccable, you won’t find anyone with better taste, but when it comes to death metal… his releases, and taste, are generally more miss than hit. Capharnaum’s Fractured finally breaks that streak. The [...]
