Fauna – The Hunt (Music Review)

It’s like Type O Negative covered Burzum but would much rather listen to something like Labradford.

Rating; 2.8 out of 5
Volumes 7 and 8 of this collective show earlier versions of Queens of the Stone Age songs, leftover Screaming Trees-style flora, and Eleven remnants. Most intriguing if you are a die hard fan.



Astrosoniq – Quadrant (Music Review)

Rating: 4.8 out of 5
And right before you scream that you just cannot take it anymore, you get the sign and Astrosoniq explodes into a cacophony of hard-edged stoner rock that will spin your long locks into a tornado of head-banging fury.



Eagle Twin- The Unkindness of Crows (Music Review)

By Andrew Gable • Nov 10th, 2009 • Category: Metal, Reviews And Essays

Rating 3.5 out of 5
Epic metal slow metal. Like Danzig on Quaaludes, but with better songwriting and much better lyrics (and without the singer hiding a napoleon complex).

If Beavis and Butthead could see Shrinebuilder now, their stiff mullet hair would be blown straight up in the air, mouths agape.
