Apocalyptic Skin Feast: Reviews 3/10/08 |
SKINLESS-Trample the Weak, Hurdle the Dead (2006)In my opinion, Skinless is one of the best bands out there. The riffage is heavy, demoralizing, and intelligent. And rarely does a hefty dose of ange... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Mon, 10 Mar 2008 01:28:00 PST |
Hypocrisy on so many levels: Reviews 3/3/08 |
HYPOCRISY-Virus (2005)Hypocrisy "returns" with some damn good shit. Of course they never actually went away but it is still nice to see that they have some pretty good riffs and shit left in 'em.Crus... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Mon, 03 Mar 2008 02:10:00 PST |
Sell Out to shred? Reviews 2/15/08 |
HATE ETERNAL-Fury and Flames (2008)Without trying to sound like I'm trying to avoid the issue of reviewing this record, I find it necessary first to explain some semblance of what this record means. ... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Sat, 16 Feb 2008 05:53:00 PST |
Crawling/Grinding Flesh: Reviews 2/5/08 |
FLESHCRAWL-Soulskinner (2002)Fleshcrawl has emerged as one of my favorite bands to listen to when I am in the mood to drink beer kick some damn ass. I just want to finish my recently opened beer so I... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Tue, 05 Feb 2008 09:06:00 PST |
America the Brutal: Reviews 1/16/08 |
VILE-The New Age of Chaos (2005)I hate to sound pro-American here. Let's face it, the majority of extreme and sickening death metal bands are found outside of American borders. Sure, people can argu... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Wed, 16 Jan 2008 10:56:00 PST |
FUCKN A!!... DUDE: Reviews 1/11/08 |
OBITUARY-Xecutioner's Return (2007)I can't wait until I am 46 years old (after my wife and kids left me because I was fat, sweaty, drunk, peg-legged, and still addicted to brutal as hell, unadulterate... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Fri, 11 Jan 2008 09:31:00 PST |
2007: Year in review (and beyond) |
2007, in retrospect, was the year that metal finally solidified itself as a respectable and formidable art form. No longer is metal merely an underground lashing out of misguided youth or even an exc... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Tue, 01 Jan 2008 12:14:00 PST |
Health and wellness of your metalness: Reviews 12/4/07 |
VADER-Impressions in Blood (2006)There's not much to it, really. It's just a sickening display of precision based musicianship merged nicely with a full daily dose of evil--kinda like vitamins. You ... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Wed, 05 Dec 2007 08:51:00 PST |
Metal Illusion: Reviews 11/27/07 |
THE ABSENCE-Riders of the Plague (2007)A decent record that carries with it an incalculable level of introspection and self-examination. I can't really find anything wrong with this record. If I did... Posted by Face Melting Metal on Tue, 27 Nov 2007 02:01:00 PST |

BLOODJINN-This Machine Runs On Empty (2007)At first, this record sounded very promising. This isn't your average metalcore/hardcore/post-hardcore/gay/look-at-me-I'm-in-a-met
