Reverend's Bazaar - The Cure For FBS

Reverend's Bazaar - Epidemic of Decay

So much for graceful exits. In a somewhat troubling trend, our long-in-the-tooth luminaries are limping into the tail-end of their careers. Judas Priest 's farewell tour is an in-name-only-affair, as they have plans to release another album. The abrupt...

Sasha Horn's Top 20 of 2010

I spent the latter half of this year adapting to some new surroundings. Going from a bustling metropolis to a barren wasteland in the blink of an eye leaves one with only a blink of an ear's attention span. Therefore, for much of 2010's output...

Doug Moore's Top 20 of 2010

After the merciless torrent of brilliance that was 2009, it was easy to feel a little let down during 2010. Upon reflection, though, this year produced an amazingly broad range of distinctive, individualistic metal releases. We saw both the erosion of...

Zach Duvall's Top 20 of 2010

What a year... I don't know if I just paid more attention in 2010 due to free time or if this much stuff really did blow me away, but I never remember listening to and devouring this much metal within a 12 month period. For me, this year saw lots...

Reverend's Bazaar - Lightning Trends of Death

Whew. It's been a rough couple of weeks in the heavy metal realm: Death has been dominating the headlines, the new Nachtmystium blows, and, worse yet, four-fifths of Bang Tango have apparently reunited. (This is the part where I pretend that I didn't...

Starve for the Minotaur: Engorged With Imagery

The first quarter of 2010 is in the books, and thus far, the year has been dominated by heavyweights. Ihsahn , Darkthrone , High on Fire , Immolation , and Fear Factory have nabbed the majority of headlines, but most of the buzz surrounding these grizzled...
