| A solid outing from a seasoned band, which plays out as a story of two halves. First 5 tracks seem to fit nicely and lead into together, with tracks 2-4 being intricately prepared bangers. And the transition between Beneath the Rose and Choir is to die for. Second half includes good low country metal tracks that TBH - they could make in their sleep. So first half overwhelms, 2nd half somewhat underwhelms. But the production and mixing is great, which is much appreciated after the train wreck of G&G. |

equally strong, supporting instrumentals. Although currently UNK, put my bet on the band
being from Latin America. |

One of those bands/albums that is really hard to peg. Early female fronted hybrid of alt and alt- metal from the mid
1990?s is best I can do. Hear some similarities to Pet, but not necessarily to earlier alt bands (Hole, L7) or later metal
bands (Drain STH, Kittie) with female leads. Lead singer went on to front industrial bands MDFMK and
KMFDM. This band isn’t industrial though. |

Love the soundtrack album, and enjoyed the film. The soundtrack is a great showcase of recent
Ghost albums. The film itself was visually and aurally spectacular, with some nice costume
changes. My only critiques on the film was that it went a bit long (i.e., could have cut out
some songs) and that the story was too little. Liked how they weaved in some cartoon videos;
could've done that on other tracks (i.e., those with existing videos). |

| This band can't seem to do anything wrong - with impeccable instrumentation and vocals. And just when most thought that Spiritbox would push more to the mainstream, they release this EP with two huge bangers (Cellar Doors, Angels). |
| Spiritbox Tsunami Sea |
First, let me say that this is an excellent album. Now, does it break new ground/outside of
Spiritbox' prior work? Yes and no. Most of this album resides within a similar "space" -
however, it does accentuate the edges. The heavier tracks (Soft Spine, No Loss No Love, Fata
Morgana) go harder, and the softer tracks (Crystal Roses) go lighter. Some tracks (e.g., A
Haven with Two Faces, Deep End) do break their mold - and perhaps showcase a more
progressive touch. |

Surprised to find that the music was fresh (up to date), has some good mix of both introspective and heavy moments - and that Chester sounds young but very good. Kinda has a feel similar to Dead by Sunrise, an album I dug. Great work in bringing this back to life. |

Wasn?t expecting much - saw a vague comparison to Tool in a review and decided to pick it up unheard. This was after
my third trip to this store - this album still being there. This is quite the varied album, texturally, going as heavy as
Meshuggah on a few tracks. Calling this metalcore is too limiting. It is truly a 40 min ride - transitioning through several
metal genres and seamlessly between tracks. Also, quite the vocal display. At the end of my first listen, I had a ?WTF
was that? moment, in a great way. thought I had heard it all - guess not! |

| Nita can really make some catchy, lead driven MDM. Most of her instrumentals fit this mode, as well as the tracks with A White-Gluz and A. Friden on vocals. These tracks slay! It?s where she ?dumbs? down her songwriting to fit more mainstream artist styles (e.g., D. Draimen, L. Hale) that doesn?t hit as hard. Not that the tracks with guest vocalists are not good; Disturbed, for ex., could use her guitar chops. It just makes the album a bit disjointed in areas. |

An exemplary visual/aural capture of early OTEP live tracks, primarily from the albums Sevas

individual live tracks relative to their album counterparts. Otep Shamala is a force and at
top vocal form. And awesome to see Aaron Norstrom (of Gemini Syndrome) on guitar. |

Took a few listens, but this album is resonating well with me. In comparison to TMBTE, this
album is more varied, especially between the lighter and heavier tracks. And metal is used more
as an accent (another paint to paint with); not going to win a best metal guitar award, but when
heavy, the guitar work is tasty. Similarly, the vocals are excellent, including the rapped vocals
on a few tracks. And harsh vocals are minimal; but well done where incorporated. Really like
the bookends: Look to Windward/Emergence in the beginning, and Infinite Baths in the end. Album
is like an oreo - with softer, textured tracks in the middle. Have to applaud the use of varied
instruments as well - the saxaphone, piano, and perhaps a vibraphone; this is well interspersed
throughout. |

| Another spectacular Soen track, available for purchase/download on their website for $5 min. Worth every dollar. |

| By any other band, this would be a monumental album. But given the strength of Soen?s discography, this one falls a bit less. The heavier tracks perhaps retreading too much that Imperial already accomplished, with the intricate, staccato riffing and sugary vocal Melodies. Still very good and worth several listens, and the packaging is pretty sweet. |

A wide and versatile album it is. From Slipknot level (Post Traumatic Blues, All I Want is Hate) to punk (We Are
the Rest) to just plain rock (Midnight), this album encompasses the entire breadth of CMFT -
and shows how many different genres that he can dominate. And that's not why this album is good. If anything, this
makes the album inconsistent and more a compilation of diverse tracks. However, there are some true gems on this
album - Post
Traumatic Blues (already mentioned), Beyond, Sorry Me (a Snuff like track) - and most
especially Dead Flies. The later is a haunting/haunted track that only CMFT can pull
off. You can, however, have Breath of Fresh Smoke - not my type of jam, at all. |

Not my favorite Ghost album, but it is good. ...perhaps with more listens great. The
influences are pretty apparent in select tracks. And much of the heavier edges have been
rubbed off in the production. The tracklist flows as a whole; although is not as varied as
other albums. Unique tracks are either missing or less effective - for better (e.g.,
Prequelle type instrumentals, Meliiora balladry [He Is]) or for worse (Impera's
eccentricities [Twenties]). That said, this album is an enjoyable listen and a grower. |

| Otep The God Slayer |
This album consists of four originals and eight covers. It starts off great with
"Ostracized", an original, poignant and social commentary track that only OTEP could make.
This track is almost worth the price of the album itself. The remaining 3 original OTEP
tracks are OK, but have little impact. The covers are a bit of a mixed bag, but overall
good. Favorites are "You Should See Me in a Crown", "The Way I Am", and "Pet" - "Pet" seems
to be an obvious fit for OTEP. Wasn't big on "Good 4 U" at the beginning, but this track is
a grower. Was expecting to love "Territorial Pissings" and "Purity", but there's something
about the recording of these tracks that makes them seem small. The cover of "California
Girls" - yeah it's a misogynistic song to begin with - but never got THAT impression from
listening to the Beach Boys. |

| Who says an EP can't be a triumphant return? This EP finds the band Jackie, reformed with a new guitarist and bassist as Unsaid Fate. Although just 6 tracks, this EP includes higher octane hard rock tracks, continued great vocals by Jackie LaPonza, and some minor incorporation of harsh vocals. Jackie continues to be the focal point - and rightly so. Also, a couple good videos came from this EP - for tracks Our Addiction and Always (a prior Jackie track). |

| A one-off track and video - but a good one at that. |
