Sahg – Sahg I (CD)

Posted on: October 7, 2011 Posted by: James McQuiston Comments: 0

I thought Sahg was going to play a much harder bran do fmetal than was present on the opening moments of “Sahg I”. There is a heavy Ozzy influence during this track, as well as dollops of influence from acts like Monster Magnet and (even) Fu Manchu. The only thing that I can hear that distinguishes Sahg from the rest of the rock and metal acts that are plastered all…

Place of Skulls – The Black Is Never Far (CD)

Posted on: January 20, 2011 Posted by: James McQuiston Comments: 0

What type of metal is this? With Place of Skull’s first track on “The Black Is Never Far”, “Prisoner’s Creed” the band skillfully meshes together progressive metal with sludge and a more contemporary idea of rock to create something that is accessible without being devoid of content. With later tracks like “Sense of Divinity” the formula is not changed in the slightest. Why this works for Place of Skulls and…

Ostinato – Chasing The Form (CD)

Posted on: December 19, 2010 Posted by: James McQuiston Comments: 0

It takes a decent amount of time for Ostinato to get started on their “Chasing The Form”. The disc’s first track is “Goal of all Believers”, and it is well past a minute before David’s voice reaches a volume level that can be heard. It takes two minutes before the band is able to create the chaos and fury that Ostinato has been known for since 1997. The music that…

End of Level Boss – Prologue (CD)

Posted on: September 22, 2009 Posted by: anfnewsacct Comments: 0

The opening of “Freak Waves” seems to give a nod to the grunge rock pushed forth by bands like Soundgarden and Kyuss about fifteen years ago; the vocals present on this track are perhaps the most obvious part of this. At nearly five minutes, the repetitive guitar lines are at the verge of turning most listeners off from the CD. With “Disjointed”, the band seems to bring disaster on itself…
