Nuclear Assault – Handle With Care [ADB]

This is plain West Coast Thrash Metal, circa 1989. Fast, but for a change somewhat intelligent. They even provide songs against racism and the American government killing the Indians. It is very hard and fast, and yet it means something. This is a mixture of old Exodus, Metallica, and Megadeth. This is on In- Effect Records, and i dont have a address for them. The album was created in the…

Chip Raman – Edge of a Song

Chip Raman – Edge of a Song / 2007 Rosebud / http://www.chipraman.com / It has been quite a while since a straight-forward chap with a guitar sounded this was. Individuals will hear a lot of the sixties (Neil Young, Bob Dylan) in Raman’s style. Obviously, Young or Dylan never said anything about opening up their Nokia, but the style of Raman is unmistakenly influenced by these two giants of rock.…

It is typical 3rd wave punk guitar chords (i.e Blink 182) and lyrics, but all together they make a really good and professional sounding tape, which is hard to do on a maxell tape.The guitars are very fast paced, and they compliment the vocals amazingly. This…
