New Release Report 9/24/13

It’s our first “New Release Report” back after a short hiatus and we’re as excited to be here as you are to be reading us on a regular basis again. And what better way to kick off a new release week, the first week of autumn, with some major new releases! Drake is back with his third opus entitled Nothing Was The Same which sees the Canadian hip-hop swooner continually climbing that mountain while riding high on top of three […]

Metal Monday Volume 125 (6.3.13)

Metal Monday Volume 125 (6.3.13)

We are living in a world where I now favor Noel Gallagher over Liam Gallagher and Metallica over Megadeth. Bizarro World indeed. If I start queuing up for the latest Iron Maiden record over one from Judas Priest then you have permission to commit me to the local nut house. But onto Super Collider, the latest from Megadeth. There is nothing inherently wrong with Super Collider, Megadeth’s fourteenth, there’s just nothing new here. Where as Metallica is taking years and […]

Battlefield of the Mind soundtrack: Album Review

Battlefield of the Mind soundtrack: Album Review

Never mind the ridiculously heavy subject matter in the documentary of the same name for the moment, it’s the heavy music of Battlefield Of The Mind that has a “mind” of its’ own and sets this apart from other film companion pieces. Spearheaded by Staind’s Mike Mushok, the soundtrack features collaborations from Mushok, Dave Ellefson, Pete Murray, Troy McLawhorn, and a plethora of hard rock’s elite. Eye Empire begins with the fitting “War Isn’t Over Yet” pummeling your senses into […]

Spin Cycle: Overkill's "The Electric Age"

Spin Cycle: Overkill’s “The Electric Age”

I’m not sure exactly what happened in the past few years and if it is related to the emergence of a new generation of bands emulating the ’80s thrash metal style, but over the past couple of years, many of the originators of the genre have been releasing some of their best albums in years, if not, in some cases, of their careers. While Overkill has always been good at releasing consistently good albums, their last few albums have been […]

Metal Monday. Megadeth. Halloween. Come on now. Can’t get more obvious than this, can it?

Concert Review: The Big 4 @ Yankee Stadium (9/14/11)

The Big 4: Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax – Wednesday, September 14th 2011, Yankee Stadium, Bronx, NY I’ve seen Anthrax (with Joey Belladonna on vocals), Megadeth, Slayer and Metallica on more than a few occasions (Anthrax as recently as two days before The Big 4 event), so seeing them all play live again wasn’t necessarily earth shattering, but seeing them all play TOGETHER live and in the flesh was certainly a teenage dream of mine come to life. Much was […]

Metal Monday Volume 27 (7.18.11)

In moving forward from the recent Top 10 so far list on the Blerd last week, I give you my “Top 5 metal albums guaranteed to kick your ass during the next 6 months without hearing a note”. Catchy title, right? 1. Will Haven: Voire Dire> The first album that vocalist Grady Avenell has sung on since 2001’s Carpe Diem (And one of my Top 5 albums of all time). When Will Haven reformed a few years ago, I was […]
