Bacardi Pineapple Fusion is a much-needed addition to flavored rums. While the traditional favorite has been coconut rum, the pineapple twist that Bacardi has entered into the marketplace is stellar. The spirit will modify considerably any normal mixed drink utilizing rum, while there is enough of a body and unique flavor to the Pineapple Fusion that it tastes great in the rocks or sipped neatly. The pineapple that is…

The debut album from Nashville via Richmond, VA musician James Wallace and the Naked Light has been a long, long time coming. Although More Strange News from Another Star was first recorded in 2010, it wasn’t until the record fell into the hands of Dialog Records‘ Daniel White in late 2012 that it found a proper home as one of the label’s first releases. Spin Magazine premiered the video for…
MCT (medium chain triglycerides) have been shown to provide a statistically greater amount of energy than other types of products (protein or carb-containing supplements). MCT Fuel provides a boost to Vitamin A (10%) and E stores (330%) and contains 8 grams of MCT for each 30 mL does. MCT Fuel should be seen as an upgrade to similar products in that its energy profile does not convert to body fat…
The first track on “Determination” is so ready for radio; couple symphonic rock with shrill guitars, multiple-vocals and an intensity that never quits, and Story of the Year has started back up where they left off on their last disc. This strong opening continues during “Take Me Back”, with lead vocalist Chris smoothly resting eir vocals above the intense and intricate guitar/drum dynamic during the track. Throw in a chunky…
Pawn has a simple set up. A restaurant is actively being held up when a police officer happens upon the crime. What results is one of the most tense situations that criminal or officer of the peace can encounter, and those tapped to take part in the film (Forest Whitaker, Common, Stephen Lang, and Michael Chiklis) do a great job in imparting the difficulty in diffusing the situation. The…
“Comin’ Back Again” starts out with the very college rock-friendly track “Do You Feel High”, which mixes equal parts Joseph Arthur, Bon Jovi, Dave Matthews Band and OAR to make something that is wildly accessible. The White Stripes-like drumming of “Another Negotiation” really re-casts Jake’s band into something that is closer to Jet than anything, while Jake’s vocals themselves really tend to find themselves close to Toby Mac (DC Talk)…

Gates to the Pantheon is the fourth album from Negator, and the 9 tracks contained within showcase considerable evolution and tightening of the band’s sound. The album starts out strong with Bringer of War and The Last Sermon. Rather than continue to hammer their sound over listeners, Negator changes gears with Serpent’s Court. Serpent’s Court has a more brooding and darkly emotive feel, a trend that is made more common…

Lorient, France’s DEATH ENGINE deliver violent and obscure noise in the vein of Playing Enemy, Swans or Amenra. Recorded in a live setting and mixed by producer/engineer Amaury Sauvé at La Senelle (Birds In Row, As We Draw, Direwolves…) then mastered by Sylvain Biguet, their debut EP “Amen” features four tracks of thunderous riffs, cutthroat vocals and hypnotic drumming, like cathedrals collapsing in slow-motion. “Amen” will be released on 10″…
It has been a while since I’ve heard anything that so successfully blends stoner rock with an absolutely brutal metal style. This is exactly what Stonegard does when they open up their “Arrows”, and the step-ladder approach to their guitars during the formative period of the disc will engage listeners for the entirety of tracks like “Hunter”. Much like a harder Monster Magnet or a more brutal Fireball Ministry, Stonegard…
Defiant and ambitious, Bedfordshire five-piece Gold Skies Ahead have established themselves as a refreshingly dynamic force in a currently stale musical climate.

Produced by pop-punk legend Mike Herrera of MxPx in Seattle, USA andmixed/ mastered by former SikTh vocalist Justin Hill (Young Guns, Rise to…
Witness: A World in Conflict Through A Lens focuses on four distinct locations – Juarez, Libya, South Sudan, and Rio. Michael Mann (Thief, The Aviator, and Texas Killing Fields) focuses on the plights captured by combat photographers. Merely existing in these war-zones is a difficult enough tasks, but being the individual that captures these hells is something completely different. What results in Witness is a tremendously personal film that utilizes…
