This edition features review haikus for reasons I can't remember. To the metals…
Alice In Chains – Rainier Fog

Origin: Seattle, Washington
Label: BMG
Another great disc.
Their rebirth solidified
As good as the first.
Ancestors – Suspended in Reflections
Genre: Progressive doom/sludge

Slow and beautiful.
Album of the year worthy.
The long wait, worth it.
Leeched – You Took The Sun When You Left
Genre: Blackened crust
Origin: Manchester, England
Label: Prosthetic
Rough, British hardcore.
Heavy, grim, and chaotic
This one's quite diverse.

Sludge, yes, but much more.
As punk as it is evil.
Two guys bring fire.
