ALBUM REVIEW: Doyle’s “Doyle II: As We Die”

More than 40 minutes of horror-punk/metal that aims straight for the jugular.

ALBUM REVIEW: The Afghan Whigs’ “In Spades”

When it’s all over, you just want to play it again.

Often lewd, gory, or otherwise wicked, Cancerslug isn’t for everyone. But, there’s no denying the brutal punch packed in each song.

Overall, the album sounds inspired. A simple quality that so many listeners want and so few artists possess.

As songs open with a burst of energy, just as quickly they shift tempo and head down another path.

Crowbar drags the listener through the Louisiana swamps they call home with all the compassion of a death row executioner.

Whores. have got the goods and are a rare “new” band we’re following here at the void report.

“Brotherhood of the Snake” is made up of fast, loud, and powerful songs that exemplify the vitality of thrash metal today.

Cancerslug’s “Symphony of Savagery” is the soundtrack to a brawl at a biker bar.

Opeth’s dexterity as musicians and diversity as songwriters make an album like “Sorceress” a possibility in the first place.
