ALBUM REVIEW: STORIES – THE BUNNY THE BEAR
Anyone familiar with the play of Macbeth knows that the witches brewed poisoned entrails, toad venom, fillet of a fenny snake, eye of a newt and any other thing they can use to create a spell. Now, it seems that they've tried it again, and cocked up, thus creating The Bunny The Bear. This isn't a bad thing – as a whole concoction of scream/clean vocals and party anthems, these are provided to make one hell of an album.
[READ MORE]ALBUM REVIEW: DR GRUESOME AND THE GRUESOME HORROR SHOW – SNOW WHITE’S POISON BITE
The name says it all for the Finnish quartet – an album potentially full of cliché horror punk lyrics, themes, music and just another band to laugh at for having a rather ludicrous name. However, take note that I used the word "potentially." It could have happened, there's no doubt about that, but having been to quite a few horror punk gigs myself, this album is something not to be laughed at and dismissed easily. Containing near pop punk before divulging into massive breakdowns, this is one of the best releases I've heard of this year so far.

ALBUM REVIEW: DISARM THE DESCENT – KILLSWITCH ENGAGE
Killswitch Engage are back with their original singer Jesse Leach, and this has caused a lot of controversy among fans. The first two albums released by the band cemented them as the founders of metalcore, and they gained much more popularity during the Howard Jones era, despite having a weak second self-titled album before he left. Now, Killswitch Engage have to win back fans with 'Disarm the Descent' – if it's good, then the fans will stay, but if it isn't, then the band might as well not stay together. After listening to the album, I'm going to conclude what it's like now: 'Disarm the Descent' practically shits on all of the band's discography: it's nothing short of amazing.
[READ MORE]ALBUM REVIEW: VIOLENCE – TEAR OUT THE HEART
This album has EVERYTHING that you could ever want in a metal album: a great intro, a full and varied body, and a capstone that sums up the album as a whole. It's not exhaustingly long or overwrought with songs that were forced into it to meet a quota to make it an album vs. an EP, and it is interesting enough to keep listening to, allowing you to discover new features to savor as you plow through the tracks again and again.
[READ MORE]ALBUM REVIEW: KISS ME SLEEPING - APPARITIONS
Post-Hardcore/Pop-Metal? That's the odd label that the six-piece Apparitions call themselves, but there's no real evident genre present in their latest album.
[READ MORE]ALBUM REVIEW: THOSE WHO DECEIVE – VOICES AND VESSELS
Voices and Vessels waste no time in the three track EP "Those Who Deceive." It's structured to be one of those records that are good enough to be melodic and lure you into a sense of sweet security, before punching you in the face and telling you to wake up.

Every once in a while, a great band you've never heard of crosses your path, or a great album from a previously lackluster band grabs you by the balls and gets your attention. Sadly this is neither of those.
