Metal Monday Volume 92 (10.22.12)

Metal Monday Volume 92 (10.22.12)

Neurosis is one of those bands that I know I should be a fan of but I’ve never been really. That changed with 2007’s Given To The Rising which I forced myself to listen to because I felt I owed all of the bands I liked already who credited Neurosis as an influence. Given… did not disappoint and I found myself on the edge of my seat with anticipation at the arrival of the one you’re reading about now. But […]

Spin Cycle: Billy Talent, Dead Silence

Spin Cycle: Billy Talent, Dead Silence

Are you afraid that Green Day has gone off the deep end? Do you like your rock anthems tempered with some flavor? Do you know Billy Talent? Because if you do, it’s probably worth your while to check out their latest, Dead Silence, which blends power punk with some good old Flogging Molly/Dropkick Murphys style anthems. “Lonely Road To Absolution” is a quick little ditty that leads into the stadium ready anthem “Viking Death March”. This is the one that […]

Metal Monday Volume 91 (10.8.12)

The new album from Converge is so good that it would be wise for any other metal band planning to release new material in 2012 to hold off until next year. All We Love We Leave Behind, Converge’s eighth full length, is the kind of album that not only renews my faith in metal but also makes me damn proud that the music scene I grew up around is still making relevant, exciting music. Visceral is the only word that […]

Spin Cycle: The Birthday Massacre, Hide And Seek

Spin Cycle: The Birthday Massacre, Hide And Seek

I’ll be honest, I’ve heard of The Birthday Massacre but had never heard them before Hide And Seek (Their fifth album). The loser in this equation is obviously me because the music that TBM make is meant to be consumed by as many people as possible. They easily make music that could score the entire Twilight series of movies (Hey, that’s not an insult! Those soundtracks are awesome!) with these songs that are sort of electronic and sort of rock […]
