The Path Of Totality by Korn [Rock Metal Dubstep]

Nu-Metal pioneers Korn take their bass levels down that little bit further once again with the aid of additional electronica and the production skills of some of the hottest names in EDM today. You could say that Korn have dubbed it down but I think that “they’ve still got it”.

Narcissistic Cannibal by Korn ft Skrillex & Kill The Noise | Single Review | Free Download

It’s not overly done and instead of a guitar solo we’ve got some juddering wobbles and grimey effects. The drumming is impressive and yes, it’s affected by the production but it really does sound quite fat indeed.

Wish Upon A Blackstar – Chapters 1 – 4 of 5 by Celldweller | EP Review

There are bands that do this type of work. The Prodigy dabble with some rock in parts of their work. Pendulum more famously for combining the genres. A personal favourite of mine being Subsource who manage the crossover incredibly well. Like Reznor, this is one man.

Romborama by The Bloody Beetroots | Album Review

I get quite annoyed sometimes how certain musicians pass me by. When I finally come across them I hear the releases which have been out for a while only to find myself being totally in awe but months out of date.

Tales From The Doombox by Subsource | Album Review

GALVANIZED bass and searing electro beats muscling their way out of the cyberpunk bubble with a boom rather than a bang. As James Brown may say, this IS my bag. This band with genuine aphrodisia are releasing their debut album with tunes that would perfectly suit the full moon moments where “The Bitten” change into the animals for the night unleashing deafening roars.

No Guts, No Glory by Airbourne | Album Review

Everyone loves a good rock tune. Feel-good chemicals are naturally released in the brain caused by these vibrations emitting from the stereo. When The Darkness (bless ‘em) literally pierced the charts with the voice of a wailing pussycat and classic rock, guitar strokes it stirred many a maiden, had plenty of geezers waving their hands in the form of “The Horns” generally made lots of people smile.

More Than Alot by Chase and Status | Album Review

Chase & Status have been around for a few years but it wasn’t until the recent remix of the White Lies’ release Death, that they caught my attention. The reason is quite simply, I do not like it.

The Spider Simpson Incident by Casino

Now, this is has the intentions on being a short review of little words because of course, music really should sell itself. Casino are a band from Birmingham formerly known as SpiderSimpson, formerly known as Casino. (long story)

21st Century Breakdown by Green Day | Album Review

Comparing it to tracks unmistakeningly excellent like When September Ends, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams, Time Of Your Life, initially, it wouldn’t have woken me up to the revolution it appears they’re trying to instigate. But they did.

To Lose My Life by White Lies | Album Review

Every now and then, a song comes on the radio by a band or artist that you’ve never heard of, it stops you in your tracks, you’re captured by this sound, it has a hold on you and you just need to hear it again.

Kingdom Of Welcome Addiction by IAMX | Album Review

Now. I like Iron & Wine which is poetic, rustic, American deepsouth folk. I like Nine Inch Nails which is hard, industrial rock with very much explicit lyrics yet powerfully heartfelt. I like dark, filthy breakbeats which bang and bleep in all the right places. Depeche Mode with their indie/electronic sound, anthemic vocals and all the romanticism which surrounds. But what about an Artist which can combine all of those traits and come out with something truly masterful?

The Penny Arcade by Emily Breeze

Personally I do not believe there is anything much sexier than a woman with a soul singing some Blues music. Emily Breeze definitely possesses a soul.

The Sound Of Silver by LCD Soundsystem | Album Review

The first track is unmistakeable by many a gamer as being a theme tune to a very popular console Liberty City episode. Get Innocuous is a tune and a half. It has a certain attitude within the sound that means business, to bring you out of yourself and to take the bull by the horns. But depending on mood it can actually make you feel quite, well, innocuous.

The High End Of Low by Marilyn Manson | Album Review

The album doesn’t seem to be as aggressive as the previous records have been (but i’ve been listening to this kind of thing for years). The pace has been reduced a little. It may have something to do with age and mellowing out but that doesn’t seem quite right for Manson, but definately, the metronome isn’t ticking like what it used to.
