Viking Skull – “Doom, Gloom, Heartache & Whiskey” [Candlelight] … everything about this band smacks of self-parody, starting with their name and the title of this, their 3rd album, and wrapping up with a 6:41 drinking song (9)… they’re down with the three solid S’s of Metal: Southern, Sludge, and Sabbath, with vox that sound like what happens when you down razorblades with Black Tooth Grins … features new guitarists after their former founding members decided to focus on Raging Speedhorn … guaranteed grooves, hooks, and fun, but lacking innovation … FCC: 9 … Try 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 … 2008Nov04

Review : DEW-SCENTED - "Invocation"
Rating: 3/5 Dew-Scented offers no hope, nothing to grasp onto… and perhaps that is the idea. Like the cover art itself, Invocation is stark, cold, ...
Review : BURDEN - "A Hole in the Shell"
Rating: 3/5 … This album is a mixed bag of sorts, and sometimes seems rather formulaic. There are a few gems, but otherwise left me expecting more a...
