Review: Twister Chasers
Twister Chasers Mpi Home Video Street: 06.26 Remember that movie Twister? Sucks to be you, doesn’t it? Anyways, Twister Chasers is a documentary about some real live tornado chasers doing their thing during the summer of 2004. Even though these people take great precautions there are still some fairly scary moments when incredible wind and

Review: Solitude Aeturnus
Solitude Aeturnus House of Despair Metal Mind Street: 08.28 I’ve always had a hankering for checking out Solitude Aeturnus one big reason is because their vocalist Robert Lowe is now singing for the mighty Candlemass. What better way to acquaint yourself to a band than a live DVD spanning the bands entire career. The bands
Review: Onslaught
Onslaught Live Polish Assault 2007 Metal Mind Street: 08.28 I have honestly never heard of Onslaught but apparently they’ve been around since 1985 though there was a period of long inactivity.

Summer of Death: Part Deux
Summers in Utah are hot, and personally, I don’t like them very much. Finding the motivation to skate when it’s over 100 degrees outside is nearly impossible. You either have to wake up early, or sacrifice an evening of drinking in order to get some time on the old wood plank. Saturday, August 11th was
The Fucking Interview: Metal, Recording and Life according to The...
In the current underground music scene there just aren’t many bands that can claim to have placed 24 guitars on a single track, or brought down the house with a Johann Sebastian Bach cover, complete with harmonized guitar solos.
