Genre-defining albums have sprinkled metal’s history with those few releases that transcend what’s been done before. Metallica’s Kill ‘Em All taught us metal could be heavy and still be rock and roll, Quiot Riot’s Metal Health ushered in a decade of hair bands, and Nirvana’s Nevermind killed that decade with a single song. More recently, Amorphis gave us Skyforger and …

As I continue to meet new people throughout the industry, I think it’s worth sharing those who I think who have the ability to make an impact on the genre down the road. In one of those weird twists in life, I met this musician, Aaron Dlugasch ( www.systematicsound.com ), over a decade ago while we were both just a year …

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8m3dgjsF3E&feature=player_embedded[/youtube] “In the Dark” Here is the new single from the album Pins and Needles.  The Birthday Massacre offers not only the perfect band name for the horror fan but also some definite horror theme in their music video.  The music reminds me a bit of Evanescense.  The video has a very J Horror influence, much like The Ring.

The Sullen Route is a four-piece band from Volgograd Russia. Moving away from their death metal roots, they branch out into new territory with sophomore release Apocalyclinic. The band’s label Bad Mood Man Music has this to say about their style: “«Apocalyclinic» demonstrates evolution from orthodox doom death metal to the area which cannot be definitely classified: in the new …

“I tripped the merry-go-round….the calliope crashed to the ground” If the year was 1977, you might have thought Manfred Mann’s Earth Band was talking about this recent release score / music CD under the title of “Carnival Arcane” by Midnight Syndicate. “Carnival Arcane” is designed to take you on a mental journey. One that eludes images of “Something Wicked This …

Illuminate the Silence are five musicians from Moscow still experimenting to find their own sound. And just like the band’s name, Silverhoney is a non sequitur, leaping back and forth between metal, rock, jazz and even funk. The four-song EP moves in and out of these styles, abruptly switching from one to another throughout. At times, the sonic shifts are …

There’s nothing pretty about Heavy Lord, and that’s a good thing. They don’t have a nice website. Their bio wouldn’t make it past a high school newspaper editor. They don’t even give us last names. What they do give us is uncompromising, heavy rock and roll music. In their own words: “We play ultraloud and uncompromising music like a big …

In 100 Tears, his work is quite good, but since Ambient …

Taking a que for Marilyn Manson is not a negative in our view. This new Motionless In White video rocks the creep factor pretty hard with some outstanding kinetics going on. I miss the old days of rapid fire Floria Sigismondi. This inspired video is directed by Stephen Penta and features tattoo artist Megan Massacre. Big complaint…not enough Megan!
