Atreyu is gearing up to release their seventh studio album In Our Wake. This album is a step in a slightly different direction for Atreyu and it’s glorious. There honestly isn’t a bad song on In Our Wake because each song is so different from the next, really showing how much the guys are...

20 years and 10 albums into a band’s career warrants something special and big and that’s exactly what Nonpoint have done with X. They purposefully took a full year off from touring, writing and recording to properly give the record what it deserved and it shows with the final...

13 years after they set the metal world ablaze with their debut – The Poison, Bullet For My Valentine are still going strong and and harder than ever with Gravity, their sixth studio record and far departure from what fans may be used to. In 2013, the band tried to change gears with...

Shallow Side are a band that, even though they’re just emerging and getting going, they’re doing everything right. Not long ago, they released an EP- One, which featured a cover of Styx classic “Renegade,” which caught the attention of the legendary band’s guitarist Tommy Shaw. Now,...

It’s an exciting thing when an album lives up to its title and that’s exactly what you have with Halestorm’s fourth record- Vicious, which comes on the heels of Into The Wild Life. Vicious’ predecessor was somewhat of a departure in sound for the band and the fanbase was split on its...

Music is the truest form of art and emotion there is and rock music is notorious for combining the two. When it’s done right, it’s a beautiful thing and that’s exactly what City Of The Weak’s Pulling Teeth is. With bands like Flyleaf evaporating into thin air and others like Paramore...

Korn frontman Jonathan Davis has been mulling over a solo release for some time but hasn’t been able to make it a reality until now. He has just released his first solo album entitled Black Labyrinth and I have to say that it is a pretty damn good release and the more I listen to it, the...

When Corky Gainsford announced awhile back that he was leaving Otherwise, fans were hoping deep down that he would return to music eventually. Then when he announced a new project in Code Red Riot, we were all hoping the project would lead to an album and even a tour. Fast forward to 2018 and...
