Stockholm Syndrome
We follow with three bands this week to see how their latest releases strike us. Do they hold our attention and have us defending them? Or do we want to break free and move on with our lives?
Reviews:
Amon Amarth – Berserker (Metal Blade)
Grand Magus – Wolf God (Nuclear Blast)
October Tide – In Splendor Below (Agonia)
Only the Finest Quality Audio
We have four rather diverse albums for you this week. I feel like we say that a lot, but just look at them! The styles are all over the place! But that’s just how we like it, and hopefully you do too. We also talk a little bit about getting Metal as HD audio.
Reviews:
After the Burial – Evergreen (Sumerian)
The Damned Things – High Crimes (Nuclear Blast)
Abnormality – Sociopathic Constructs (Metal Blade)
Ain’t Nuthin’ but a G Thang
This episode is stuffed to the brim with content! We review FOUR albums, cover the letter ‘G’ for our ABCs, and have a live review! So, I’ll save you some time by not filling this space with letter-based jokes and let you get right to listening.
Reviews:
Periphery – Periphery IV: Hail Stan (3 Dot)
Allegaeon – Apoptosis (Metal Blade)
Wormwitch – Heaven that Dwells Within (Prosthetic)
Polar – Nova (Nuclear Blast)
Live Review:
Chaos and Carnage Tour 2019 featuring Whitechapel, Dying Fetus, Revocation, Spite, Fallujah, Uncured, and Buried Above Ground at Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ on April 18, 2019
At the Speed of Grind
We have some long-awaited follow-ups this week! Well, we haven’t been really been “waiting” for two of them, but Brian has been anxiously waiting almost five freakin’ years for the third. The question we are here to answer, though, is, “Are any of them worth the wait?”
Reviews:
Fallujah – Undying Light (Nuclear Blast)
Misery Index – Rituals of Power (Season of Mist)
Noisem – Cease to Exist (20 Buck Spin)
Some New Shit!
We have some brandy new jams this week, ranging from sweet melodies to chaotic grind and…well, not “everything in between” but there’s a little bit of variation. We also debut this year’s gimmicky feature, which should be fun!
Reviews:
Soilwork – Verkligheten (Nuclear Blast)
Beaten To Death – Agronomicon (Mas Kina)
Wristmeetrazor – Misery Never Forgets (Prosthetic)
