Skumstrike – Deadly Intrusions (Blackened Speed Punk of Much Rejoicing)
Ahhh rejoice, this is an easy one. This is one of those albums that’s incredibly simple to review but most critics wasted, or will waste, their time on saying it, relying on inexcusable and nonsensical references to Shakespeare while experimenting in diluted Gonzo journalism, in the end obscuring WTF they’re trying to say and […]

Perihelion Gnosis, in only a mere two tracks, makes it clear he’s easily […]

Altered Dead – Returned to Life (Rotting Death Groove)
I have this feeling now when I see a cover like this from any band in the “death metal” party (political reference) that it’s going to be a little unusual, a little against the grain, and also a little enjoyable, for once. Yes, I said it. Anyway, so Canada’s Altered Dead have been but […]
