Review: Davantage – Unholy
DAVANTAGE UNHOLY Black Rain 5/5 Davantage failed to impress me the first time with their debut album, Broken Influences. Unholy generously offers 13 tracks of some of the best dark electro I have heard in a while. Title track, “Unholy,” sold me instantly with stunning dance-floor beats and anthem electro. “T.C.A.” and “Davantage 03″ bring
Review: David Harness/Charles Spencer – The Taboo Jazz EP
DAVID HARNESS/CHARLES SPENCER “THE TABOO JAZZ EP” Loveslap! Recordings Conceived and created by labelhead Charles Spencer and the legendary David Harness, this diverse three-tracker is worth your time! Love-side features “Breezy’s Groove,” laden with organic jazz-riffed guitar over a synthetic bass-line; it’s a melodic complex mixed with syncopated rhythms. “Tribal Stomp” is possibly the peak-timer
Review: Da Mooch Feat. Chynna – Love Is Everything
MARLON D FT J.R. MORRISON – “AFFECTION” DA MOOCH FT CHYNNA – “LOVE IS EVERYTHING” Jellybean Soul Records Two right down wicked tracks from NY’s Jellybean Soul.

Review: Davey Suicide – Self-Titled
I don’t know when the metal kids started making industrial music, or when the rivets started headbanging. Maybe it was always so, but I swear, when I was in school, the twain never met except to fight. That is no more, and there’s no better proof than on this eponymous album: 14 tracks of nuclear metal crossed with industrial distortion and quite a few bad words, oh my! … read more
Review: Cultes des Ghoules
Hailing from Poland and named after a book in the Cthulu mythos, Cultes des Ghoules fall into the category of, well, “really awesome black metal.” I was extremely impressed with their previous full-length, Haxan, and blown away by their one-sided EP, Spectres Over Transylvania, and Henbane is the perfect melding of both of those releases. … read more
Review: Cy Dune
No Recognize jumps right into action with heavy but bright guitar (think King Tuff guitar tone) hitting rhythmic chords and hammer-ons that become the backbone of the opening track, “Where the Wild Things.” … read more
Review: Dash Rip Rock
In the almost 30 years since they formed, Louisiana Music Hall of Famers Dash Rip Rock have been making rollicking swamp-rock with equal doses of punk and country and even a little metal. … read more
Review: Daughter – If You Leave
If You Leave starts off with a grand and bold introduction with the song, “Winter,” and that intensity remains pretty consistently throughout the 10-track LP. Lead singer Elena Tonra has a voice as haunting as Fiona Apple as her voice croons with a load of depth to her despair. … read more
