A Sound of Thunder seemed to come out of nowhere in 2012 with their album Out of the Darkness. Even though the band...
Blissful psychedelic hippie oriental electronic experimental pop music. Yes, this is quite a handful to spill from your mouths, but this is exactly what the duo The Glass Canoe have done with their most recent album Through Lianas. It takes your mind on a trip at first, making you think, “What the hell is this?” but once that’s over and done with, the album is essentially a sonic masterpiece.
In perusing Spoken’s press release, it states that the band’s latest and greatest release, Illusion, “is an exercise in aggression and calculated fragility. Laced with testosterone, the album throws down with the elite of metal and hardcore in calculated moments of heaviness. But what makes this record distinctive is not its speedy riffage or its pounding beats, but its emotional candor.”
If you weren’t familiar with their work, you should definitely take a listen now. Tomahawk took a break to “discover the many truths of the universe.” Oddfellows is the result of the aforementioned break, and they must have dug in deep to find what they delivered with Oddfellows. Oddfellows is releasing worldwide this January 2013 on Ipecac Recordings, but not prior to giving RockRevolt™ the aural pleasure of reviewing it. Oh yes. I was pleased!

With Atreyu on what is seemingly an indefinite hiatus and with none of these “Surprise, we’re back” tours that always spread like a plague amongst bands that just can’t call it quits, drummer Brandon Saller has gone out on his own and created new band: Hell or Highwater. They’ve taken what his previous band started, and rocktified the shit out of it on debut album Begin Again.
Let’s get one thing sorted from the get go, this is not rock'n'roll, but GODDAM it is some cool shit! There is so much to take in and grab hold of here that fans of all styles, especially progressive rock/metal, will find something to latch onto and obsess over.

13 is an unlucky number for some, but apparently not for Blackbox13 and their mini-album Army Of None. When listening to it you have to consider that the four piece aren’t out to re-invent the wheel; it’s just plain hard rock - pretty damn fine hard rock.
