I know it’s only February, but this might be the best bill, from top to bottom, I’ll see all year.

Hellfest 2018 in review: Day 1
As a first time goer to one of the biggest European metal festivals, Hellfest‘s 13th edition was for me a time to remember. Starting with the grounds filled with all kind of rustic buildings, pyro & bonfires all around and continuing with the killer lineup, this was an experience I am already looking forward to repeating. Over…

Yellowtooth – Crushed by the Wheels of Progress
Yellowtooth, an Indiana sludge/doom trio, had their 2012 debut with Disgust. It was a decent platter of lo-fi filth, with down-tuned riffage and rough hewn production that brought Winter’s Into Darkness to mind. With that said, I’m intent to see how they’ve progressed in the three years since. I was somewhat surprised to hear a…

AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: OM, Melvins, Crowbar, June 19-23, 2015
I must admit, I’m not as big into NXNE as I used to be. I just don’t have the stamina anymore to stay up till 3 am 3-4 nights in a row, running from venue to venue in search of heavy music. These days, I only do NXNE when there’s someone I really wanna see…and…

Bastard of the Skies/Grimpen Mire split
I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve never heard either of these British bands before, though they’ve both been around for a handful of years. But that’s what’s great about splits—they’re a bite-sized introduction to acts otherwise unknown, without putting you through the paces of a 72-minute album or something. And while I’m not…

More Maryland Deathfest 2014 – going full bore at MDF
This review is quite long. But then, Maryland Deathfest was a long festival. It was full of bands I wanted to see. I also remained sober through the entire festival. This meant a few things: I saved money for the massive amount of merch that was available. I didn’t wake up each morning feeling like…

Crowbar – Symmetry in Black
Crowbar’s Sever the Wicked Hand was an awesome album, one of my top albums of 2011. And despite an unfortunate head-kicking incident at MDF, I was still pretty psyched to hear what the band would come up with the next time around. No boycott here—let’s just say I’m hoping this album delivers a solid blow…

Maryland Deathfest 2014: Day 1
MDF XII: Thursday, May 22, 2014 Hellbound is at MDF once again (well, some of us at least). So far, our experiences of Maryland Deathfest 2014 and of Baltimore have been rather varied – more on this to come. For now, here a couple of thoughts on my first day back at MDF. The weather So,…
