Tuesday Time Machine: Forced Entry – Uncertain Future (1989)

Freak Puke, the upcoming album from Washington’s own The Melvins is streaming in all it’s weirdness and meaty riffery for your enjoyment. Considering The Melvins discography and reputation for erratic musical impulses, it’s certainly got its share of strange. There … Read the rest of this entry →
Tuesday Time Machine: Metal Church – Hanging In The Balance (1993)
Aside from being one of the most terrible/awesome album covers in the history of music, 1993′s Hanging In The Balance was actually a more subdued departure for Metal Church. Solid songwriting, clean passages, mid-tempos and a darker atmosphere where all … Read the rest of this entry →
Bros On Film: Black Breath, Bleak Backdrop, New Music Video, Creativity Ensues
I swear bands are just doing this to troll by this point. Why bother to make a music video when it’s quite literally NOTHING. Why? Is it just a post street-date reminder for the broader ADD-stricken fanbase? We are subjected … Read the rest of this entry →
Black Friday: Inquisition

Black Breath: Sentenced To Life
So, we were told to expect less of the death n’ roll and more unadulterated punishment on Black Breath‘s sophomore effort Sentenced To Life. If these Seattleites weren’t one of my most frequently spun bands, I may have actually avoided … Read the rest of this entry →
Sons of Northwestern Darkness: Scourge Schematic
