Victorian Halls



Victorian halls
Victory records

The vocals and bass are good. Everything else is could be a little better. The vocals are the highlight of this E.P.

Less than Jake



GNV FLA.
Sleep it off records

I'm not a big ska fan but at least this is good ska. This album has more punk influences with a few ska elements. I enjoyed the singers voice and the guitar riffs. This album is pretty good; if you like this band or punk and ska you should get this album.

Spider Lilies



In the light
Spider lilies

This band sounds like something the eighties rejected. The vocals are bland and the music sounds like it was ripped from a John Carpenter movie.

Driver Side Impact



Lion
Victory records

The vocals sound like top forty punk. Guitar riffs are impressive. The bass is inaudible. The drums are standard punk. This is actually what those top forty punk bands you hear on the radio were trying to accomplish.

Nineteen Ninety Seven



On the road
Victory records

This album isn't bad but this band does need to try harder. All of the musical parts are decent and so are the female vocals. The same can't be said about the male vocals.

The Pack A.D.



Funeral mix tape
Mint records inc.

This another fine example of what rock is supposed to sound like. The vocals have a very raw punk sound to them but the rest of the music is to slow but just as good. This band rocks and should be checked out.

Alice in videoland



She's a machine
National records

Awesome electronica, I like everything about this album,the vocals, the lyrics, and all of the music. This band rocks, everyone needs to check out Alice in video-land.

Xandria



Salome The Seventh Veil
National records

The vocals are  beautiful. The piano and the violin is very nice.  The guitar riffs are basic yet awesome and extremely heavy. The drums are good at times and great at others. This band is incredible; no one should miss this album.

Testament



The formation of damnation
Nuclear blast records

This album is everything I would expect from one of the best metal bands of all time. Everything on this album from the guitar riffs to the drums to the vocals and lyrics is absolutely mind-blowing. This might be the best testament album ever.

Winterus



In carbon mysticism
Lifeforce records

Astoundingly fast drums. The vocals are pretty good and the guitar riffs are decent. This is what black metal is supposed to sound like; this band rocks if you're into black metal you should definitely check these guys out.

The Last Felony



Too many humans
Lifeforce records

The vocals have more power than this band knows what to do with luckily the rest
of the band is just as great. This album is another one of those albums that can
only be described as pure death metal. The drums and vocals are to good to be
true.
