Terra Tenebrosa - The Tunnels
Claustrophobic
A description? What? You want a description? It's simple, really. Go in a cave, a really deep one. Now get relentlessly crushed by tons of rocks. That'll do the trick.
Or, in other words, it's some dissonant avant/post/sludge/drone stuff. Or something else. But who cares, as long as it's awesome?

Now I knew that Machine Head is a popular band and Darkest Hour as well as Suicide Silence always draw crowds in Denver, but frankly I didn't expect this. Holy crap! The show at the Summit Music Hall, smack in downtown Denver, CO was just a few tickets shy off being totally SOLD OUT! Nice surprise, in part since all of the bands did play in Colorado last year. Doors was originally scheduled for 6pm but since one of the openers (Rise To Remain out of England) jumped off the bill last minute, everything got pushed back an hour or so.

It was sometime in August that the devastating announcement came about Pure Reason Revolution disbanding after a coming final tour in the UK. As a consolation a promise was made to play their magnificent début album The Dark Third in its entirety at those shows. My favourite band giving their farewell tour... and playing my favourite album in full. No matter what, I had to be there for at least one show. I just had to see it with my own eyes, had to hear it with my own ears, had to experience it live. (by Ivor) Read more ›› |

Urkraft - The Inhuman Aberration (2006)
The story goes more o less like this: I was really excited when I saw the name Urkraft in my hands; I had good references about that band as many people was talking about how great their music was and how original their structures were. So now I had the opportunity to hear their new material, an album called "The Inhuman Aberration" by the way, I can't talk about my impression right in the first paragraph of the review right? So let's dig a little deeper. Urkraft is a Danish...

Iron Maiden
Music press reports told a story that during the recording sessions of The Number Of The Beast, there were instances of unexplained phenomena occurring. Lights would periodically trip out and there were "cold spots" in the studio. This all climaxed when the producer Martin Birch was involved in a car accident and was presented with a repair bill for £666.
