Volumes dropped a surprise EP titled ‘Coming Clean’ a few weeks back and I’m really enjoying the direction they’re heading. I was surprised by how much I liked ‘Different Animals’ in 2017 and this is exactly what I expected from a follow up. I just have to say that Volumes Read more

After The Burial’s sixth album ‘Evergreen’ is an excellent addition to the discography of one of my favorite bands. They’ve consistently put out incredible music and have been a driving force in progressive metal for the last 15 years. I also just saw them perform last night and they put Read more

Alpha Wolf’s new EP titled ‘Fault’ is out now. It’s a good follow up to their recent singles and stays true to the sound they’ve established for themself. “Sub-Zero” is by far my favorite track because it’s overflowing with anger. Based on the history, I’m assuming it’s aimed at the Read more

The band, fronted by former Infant Annihilator vocalist, Dan Watson, continues to discover their sound and perfect their craft.

I was stoked to interview their vocalist, @joshysinger, and I’m excited for you to hear our Read more

Seeyouspacecowboy released their debut album ‘Songs For The Firing Squad’ earlier this year and I’m liking it even more than I expected.  Along with Wristmeetrazor, they’re trying to revive the screamo genre and they’re doing a great job. The album has 13 songs and clocks in at 18 minutes. I Read more

Crystal Lake just released their third major album and despite their best efforts these guys are still somehow the best kept secret in metalcore.  Every time I post about them somebody says, “wow they’re amazing, I don’t know why I didn’t listen to them before”.  I don’t know either, this Read more
