Pounder-Faster Than Fire EP Review

Faster Than Fire by Pounder is a limited-edition release of 500 vinyl copy. And it’s an incredibly raw, intense old school metal record.

The opening title track, Faster Than Fire, will melt your face clean off, collecting into a pool of sizzling jelly on the ground at your feet, and the melodies of the vocals will destroy your mind. Absolutely nwobhm influenced thrash, with vocal harmonies to boot. Everything old school metal should have. Incredible musicianship here and tight songwriting. Reminiscent of early Metallica meets Angel Witch with a pinch of Motorhead and Iron Maiden. A phenomenal sound.

The Last Stand starts with a slower, but steady old school metal riff. thank Satan for bringing a good metal band around in today’s climate of shitty boy bands with guitars. Hard-driving, good lyrics, it’s just plain out awesome.

Come alive is a more of a heavy ballad, with acoustic intro, an awesome classic old school riff with awesome fills in there. Great vibe, great musicians, great lyrics, and a great singer. Absolutely incendiary. Imagine Lemmy singing for Maiden, and that’s pretty much this band’s sound. They rock so good, and it’s very refreshing to hear. Absolutely great ep.

Track list:

1. Faster Than Fire
2. The Last Stand
3. Come Alive

Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats-The Night Creeper review

The Night Creeper, by Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats, is their third record, and it shows them progressing. And its fucking fantastic. It has the riffs and vibes of Black Sabbath, with haunting vocals, and a sense of melody that most Stoner Doom Metal bands lack. There are hooks, and dark vibes. It's incindiary. And if anybody doubts their legitimacy, they opened for Black Sabbath on the UK leg of their last tour, which in Doom, that's a hell of a endorsement. They don't copy Sabbath, they put their own dark, melodic spin on the genre. This record is absolutely phenomenal, dark, abysmal, eerie, and filled with incredible freakin riffs. With lyrics that are reminscent of old school b movie horror films, they create an atmosphere that literally makes you feel like you are walking down a dark alley in the cold English rain. With songs like Waiting For Blood, Pusher Man, and the title track, slow, sludgeing Sabbath-esgue riffs, Iron Maiden like guitar harmonies, a

Atollo13 Scimmie Di Mare album review

Scimmie Di Mare is the latest full length release from Italian Surf band Atollo13, and it is fun from the moment it starts to the end. Reminiscent of The Eliminators and the Blue Stingrays and The Shadows, there's some groovy and gnarly tunes here that you can dig unless you're a square. Trappistone is the beginning intro, complete with the old vox keyboard and reverb drenched fender guitars in all their Cali sun glory. Such great musicianship here. Linda Linda the first song with vocals, they sing in Italian, but it sounds right. It's a wonderful song. It's crazy to hear perfect top notch surf music with Italian lyrics, but I must say it's better than alot of stuff around today. It sounds fresh out of a pier in the early 60s. Sea Monkeys starts off with discord and a psychedelic moment before grooving into a beautiful dance tune. Any record that encourages fun, or dancing is a good one. These guys completely have it nailed down and tight. I did not w
