Per the notes included with my review copy of Davey Suicide’s self-titled debut album, Davey Suicide, he is “ready to set the world ablaze.” That is quite the introduction; however, does it actually accomplish this? Does it really set the world ablaze? Well, see the notes at the end of this review, and that will tell you whether or not Davey accomplished what he set out for. If you appreciate dirty, punky, “fuck you” type of music, then yes. You will love this album. People are wondering where metal went. Well, it went somewhere after the wake of grunge, but Davey might be bringing some of it back. With a myriad of themes, this album is definitely an interesting compilation of songs, moving through various styles, displayed through the Davey Suicide lens.

This album has EVERYTHING that you could ever want in a metal album: a great intro, a full and varied body, and a capstone that sums up the album as a whole. It's not exhaustingly long or overwrought with songs that were forced into it to meet a quota to make it an album vs. an EP, and it is interesting enough to keep listening to, allowing you to discover new features to savor as you plow through the tracks again and again.
Voices and Vessels waste no time in the three track EP "Those Who Deceive." It's structured to be one of those records that are good enough to be melodic and lure you into a sense of sweet security, before punching you in the face and telling you to wake up.
You know how they say "everybody's Irish on St Paddy's Day..." right? Apparently the same holds true at a Dropkick Murphys concert.

Killswitch Engage are back with their original singer Jesse Leach, and this has caused a lot of controversy among fans. The first two albums released by the band cemented them as the founders of metalcore, and they gained much more popularity during the Howard Jones era, despite having a weak second self-titled album before he left. Now, Killswitch Engage have to win back fans with 'Disarm the Descent' – if it's good, then the fans will stay, but if it isn't, then the band might as well not stay together. After listening to the album, I'm going to conclude what it's like now: 'Disarm the Descent' practically shits on all of the band's discography: it's nothing short of amazing.
Post-Hardcore/Pop-Metal? That's the odd label that the six-piece Apparitions call themselves, but there's no real evident genre present in their latest album.
Every once in a while, a great band you've never heard of crosses your path, or a great album from a previously lackluster band grabs you by the balls and gets your attention. Sadly this is neither of those.
