Norse Heavy Metal From Amon Amarth
| No Comments | by
Throughout its history, heavy metal was a beautiful and pristine thing. Bands of burly dudes with long, unkempt hair sung about important topics like slaying dragons, chasing women, and partying. Then, at some point during the 1990s, the cancer of nu metal started to metastasize in the powerful body of the metal gods. Bands started singing about relationships and their feelings in an effort to gain mainstream popularity and get played on MTV. Were not talking about an obligatory power ballad here and there “some bands sung about nothing else than how miserable they were and how sad they were over a failed relationship. Some bands even resorted to such gimmicks as grooming themselves. This shouldnt be confused with the hair metal era when bands like Motley Crue were wearing makeup and platform heels “the bands were more in to carefully groomed goatees and other sissy like pandering to their feminine fanbase.

Rage Against The Machine – Album
| No Comments | by
After one of the most intense Xmas number one chart battles in the UK an old 1992 single by Rage Against The Machine (RATM) beat the latest X-Factor winner to the coveted number 1 spot. This single was ‘Killing In The Name’ and was released on the self titled album ‘Rage Against The Machine’ in 1992. This album may be getting close to 20 years old but it sounds as good and refreshing now as it did at its time of release; containing 10 classic songs all created by the bands instruments, no computer enhanced or manufactured rubbish like what clutters the airwaves today. There aren’t many bands that sound like RATM. The tracks are all excellent and the lyrics are still relevant in today’s world. It contains some memorable well written guitar riffs and solos perfectly complimented by the bass and drums. A great addition to any collection.

Foo Fighters – Greatest Hits
| No Comments | by
Foo Fighters are one of the biggest bands of their generation, selling millions of records world-wide and gaining a reputation for gutsy guitar music – often with a sense of humour and always with an incredibly catchy hook. Since his days drumming in Nirvana, Dave Grohl has grown into a rock ‘n’ roll icon and this ‘Greatest Hits’ collection shows exactly why. Including ‘Everlong’ and ‘All My Life’, the best tracks from 1995’s self-titled debut through to the band’s sixth effort ‘Echoes, Silence, Patience And Grace’ are all here.
Metallica – Death Magnetic
| No Comments | by
The 9th studio album from Metallica sees the band go back to their roots with complicated riffs, awesome guitar solos and inspired vocals. This album is a return to form and the bands best work since the late 1980’s. Each of these songs could easily have fitted into any of their 1980’s albums. Having ditched producer Bob Rock for the veteran Rick Rubin Death Magnetic reinstates many of Metallica’s early motifs–searing riffs, shredding solos, pounding drums–and even updates them with a huge, 21st century sound. James Hetfield’s vocals and the pounding rhythms of Lars Ulrich are as powerful as ever, Kirk Hammett’s solo’s are back and better than before while Bass player Rob Trujillo appears on a studio recording with the band for the first time having joined the band after St. Anger had just been recorded. Death Magnetic is Metallica’s first album in five years and it is a long-awaited return to form for the Californian quartet.
