  • Hatebreed/Cannibal Corpse/Unearth/Born of Osiris/Hate Eternal @ Odeon, Saskatoon, SK, December 7, 2009

    … song, you’ve heard ’em all, and when the quintet brought out the ludicrous, hardcore-by-way-of-nu-metal “In Ashes They Shall Reap”, one of 2009’s true guilty pleasures, two songs in, yours truly was ready to join the mass exodus of Cannibal Corpse fans, but the more Jasta and his mates carried on, the more you had…

  • Hellbound’s Origins #2: The Whys and Hows

    … to university in 1991. In my first month of school at York University I befriended one of the hosts at the school’s CHRY-FM station and spent pretty much every Thursday afternoon there for the next year sitting in (well, probably more like annoying) a really nice dude named Ken Sum. He did an open…

  • HELLBOUND RADIO: October 3rd, 2010 Playlist

    … s dust all night and when the final scores were tabulated, had only managed half the points as our fearless leader. But I guess that’s what happens when he lands on questions asking him “Who was Motorhead’s original guitarist?” and I get a gems like “What instrument does Ken Tamblyn play?” Like, who the…

  • Heavy metal in 2017 by Jay H. Gorania

    … space-obsessed death dealers Blood Incantation, their dexterity shouldn’t surprise anyone. But compared to that musical expression, Spectral Voice is far more ominous and ethereal. In their few years of existence, they’ve dropped a few demos and splits prior to this full-length. Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope this isn’t just a flash in…

  • The Peasants’ Revolting …Crimes

    … back in the day I bought them all for Becky, my youngest sister. Terry has a talent for making history both interesting and informative, often by concentrating on the horrible aspects as you’d imagine. I wish we’d been taught history like that at school!

  • Some sounds from the stoner/doom underground…

    … from The Mistake by the Lake drops me a line, I’m all ears… The title track leads things off, a solid, fuzz-rocking tune with leather-lunged vocals.  If Fu Manchu recorded an album in Eyehategod’s basement, it might sound a little like this. “Paper Suicide” takes a more laid-back desert rock approach, sorta like Nebula…

  • YOB, Dark Castle and OTIS–Oh my!

    I’m not one to mince words, nor to give perfect-10s, but I gotta say, last nite’s gig at the Courthouse was the best show I’ve seen in Toronto this year.  The rock-solid triple bill held its own with a coupla festival gigs I’ve seen elsewhere–and in terms of quality over quantity, it definitely takes the…
