If you like urban thrillers and haven’t seen Die Hard, you can rent it for less than you’d pay for the meager wannabe The Doorman. … read more
Film Review: The Doorman
Review: Into Eternity – Buried In Oblivion
Into Eternity Buried In Oblivion Century Media Canada’s Into Eternity redefine and set new boundaries for progressive metal with their release, Buried In Oblivion. Layered vocals with a European flair are mixed with a very aggressive, almost death approach. The two styles work well together. Musically, this band plays with the same melodic/heavy mix as
Review: Indigo – There’s Only You
INDIGO “THERE’S ONLY YOU” Swing City Records From one of my top five favorite labels comes another wonderful gem of soulful loving, breakin’ down the true sounds of quality house: Indigo. It was produced by Martin “Mayhem” Ikin (worked with Tom Gianelli on Soul Purpose Records) with his Indigo project for the three release on
Review: Iszoloscope – Les Gorges Des Limbes
ISZOLOSCOPE LES GORGES DES LIMBES Ant Zen 4/5 To celebrate the five-year anniversary of Iszoloscope, Yann Faussurier has a five-track treat—Les Gorges Des Limbes. Similar to the dark atmospheres and hollow drones of Aquifère, Les Gorges Des Limbes is just the flipside to his previous release, Au Seuil du Néant, which weaves in and out
Review: Jennifer Holliday – Think It Over
JENNIFER HOLLIDAY “THINK IT OVER” (REMIXES) JellyBean Soul Another classic hit is rediscovered and delivered in full force on JellyBean Soul; this time with Texan singer Jennifer Holliday on the vocals. Perhaps best known for her appearances on the Broadway stage (think New York people!) where she starred in a number of musicals from “Your
Review: Hope Of The States – The Lost Riots
HOPE OF THE STATES THE LOST RIOTS (Epic)AM Musically you aren’t going to find a band out there that capture the epic dimensions that The Verve were perfecting more accurately than Hope of the States. The Lost Riots is a deeply moving political record that serves as a British view of the great American implosion
Review: Icon Of Coil – Uploaded And Remixed
ICON OF COIL UPLOADED AND REMIXED Metropolis 4.5/5 Icon of Coil set out to do more damage to dance clubs across the globe when releasing UploadedandRemixed. The Oslo boys released their third album, Machines Are Us, only a few months ago, then did a U.S. tour and now are outdoing themselves with fourteen tracks
Review: Impossible Recording Machine – Echo The Moon
IMPOSSIBLE RECORDING MACHINE ECHO THE MOON Positron! Impossible Recording Machine are not electroclash, Radiohead, James Bond, Coldplay or any combination of “post” + (insert whatever retro music term is popular). They do, however, share a bit in common with the aforementioned because Echo the Moon is a surprisingly nice collection of up-tempo electronic drones, candy
Review: Impaled – Death After Life
Impaled Death After Life Century Media Records As I scraped shredded meat off of the scalpels and saws on my block, I noticed the pus oozing from the new Impaled disc. Pathological waste in the form of oozing riffage at once encrusted my eardrums. It was at this point that I deduced the flesh-shredding
Review: Incendiant – Self-Titled
Incendiant Self-Titled Jordan River Entertainment Street: 07.15 Insentient = Morbid Angel + Immolation + Death Incendiant have a progressive vibe on this album and every song is inherently different. Incendiant’s songwriting ability is uncanny. From album opener “Night of a Thousand Kives,” pulverizing as it grooves, or the just plain brutal blasting of “Collapse of
