Five minutes of music is definitely not a fair amount of time to indicate what a double album is going to sound like but if “Take My Bones Away” by Baroness is even a fraction of what the rest of Yellow & Green sounds like then I think fans are gonna be happy. “Take My Bones Away” is a little more crisp sounding then Blue or Red but it still sounds magnificent. Adding some Clutch-like riffing with the usual swamp [...]

Some of Posthuman is exactly what fans have been waiting for but just to show that Broadrick is anything but predictable, songs like the title track come at you in a [...]
Pass The Popcorn: The Avengers
It’s hard to put into words what I’m feeling right now. I came home to my wife and had her touch my chest so that she could feel how fast my heart was still beating over 30 minutes after leaving the theater for an advance screening of The Avengers.
