I like my grind crunchy and compact, I like my death vibrant and zesty. Simply tossing the two together does not guarantee results. Sulaco,...
Rue might as well be a new band. They have one other full length under their belt, but that was back in 2003… since...
"Filth flarrin' flarrin' filth!" Eddie Murphy was channeling a repulsed Bill Cosby when he uttered those words on 1987's Raw, but he might as...
Cynic has always been a band known for defying the confines of any particular genre. Their classic, 1993 debut Focus remains unrivaled by most...
