Hellraiser: Hellseeker (Blu-Ray)

  The Hellraiser franchise has been one of the few horror series that have continually expanded upon the original mythos while providing tremendously entertaining films. Hellseeker was the sixth of these films, and had not received a Blu-Ray transfer until now. The film starts out with another unlucky soul solving the puzzle box. For those that have not watched a Hellraiser film, this is when the supremely evil Pinhead can…

So I Had To Shoot Him – Alpha Males & Popular Girls (CD)

To say that “Alpha Males & Popular Girls” starts out oddly is a major understatement. The lead vocals come through in a very poppy vein (almost in the way of the strung-out goth rock of the late eighties), while the instrumentation comes into view as purveyors of a Locust / Lightening Bolt type of noise rock. The use of multiple layers of vocals during the first track gives the song…

King Tuff – S/T (CD)

  King Tuff has taken a number of years off since the release of eir debut album, Was Dead. The 12 tracks on this self-titled follow-up come forth as an evolutionary step forward. Anthem is a jangly, psychedelic-tinged track that is haunting in its overall feel. The drums are right up front with the super-sonic vocals, making for something that is inimitable. Alone & Stoned provides listeners with additional speed,…

Soft Machine Legacy – Live At The New Morning (CD)

 I like when DVDs have a CD release tied to them. If there is a particularly impressive DVD and I want to take that with me and listen to it, most times what I would need to do is go and find some way to rip the audio stream to my computer and then burn it to a disc. However, with this CD I am able to take what was…

Sodom – S/T (CD)

  “Blood on Your Lips” has it all – strongly enunciated lyrics to the point that individuals can distinguish anything that is being sung, utterly sick guitar work, and drumming that pops up whenever the band needs it. The style of music may be too hard to get on pop radio, but the idea is that listeners are treated by Sodom on this CD much like they would be at…

Socratic – Lunch For The Sky (CD)

  After the piano solo, the lighter-rock that starts out “Alexandria as Our Lens” is welcome. The heavily-vocal nature of the track, coupled with the continued piano lines on the track make this a more rock-based version of The Rocket Summer. The slightly vocal style of the vocals on “Alexandria” is comparable to Mark Schultz and later Yellowcard. What results is not the traditional “emo” that is so present on…
