P.O.S – Never Better P.O.S – Never Better

A rapper with punk connections, the press release describes him as. It’s hard to see how that would work, especially with the terrors of Rap/Metal still haunting the back of my mind; but after seeing P.O.S has toured with a decent set of bands in the past, along with the Warped Tour, expectations rose… …and continued to rise, as first... [Read more of this review]

Papa Roach – Metamorphosis Papa Roach – Metamorphosis

Well, this came straight out of the ether. Make what you will of this, but I was a pretty big fan of Papa Roach back in the day – I’m still known to flail about to Last Resort at any given chance…but I did not expect a new album anytime soon. Refreshingly, it’s a good album – refreshing, exactly, because I didn’t expect... [Read more of this review]

Pearl Jam – Backspacer Pearl Jam – Backspacer

Despite spearheading an entire musical genre and helping define the early nineties alternative nation Pearl Jam have pretty much been free to do as they damn well please over the past eighteen or so years. Initially feeling the pressure of media scrutiny not to mention having the hopes of an entire generation pinned upon them, Seattle’s sole survivors... [Read more of this review]

Pearl Jam – Ten (Legacy Edition) Pearl Jam – Ten (Legacy Edition)

Times are hard!!! Credit has been crunched and the global economy is crashing down pitifully around our cash strapped pockets. Repossession is rife, redundancies are mandatory and retail giants are receeding into liquidation daily. The latest business sector reportedly rocked by the escalating financial crisis is the wealthy aristocrat or, more specifically,... [Read more of this review]

Placebo – Battle For The Sun Placebo – Battle For The Sun

Placebo are back, with a fresh line-up (well, a new drummer atleast) and a renewed sense of vigour. Their last studio album ‘Meds’, whilst still good, was the sound of a band losing their vitality. Parts were tired and, whilst the album still contained some great songs, it wasn’t as well received as other Placebo albums have been in... [Read more of this review]

Proceed – Seven Months and a Fire Blanket Proceed – Seven Months and a Fire Blanket

Now this is more like it! Proceed, a band I was completely unaware of, have surprised me beyond measure. There is literally nothing I dislike about this album, even a few listens under close scrutiny. Every song is a winner on its own merit, the whole package brimming with talent and heart. An album littered with hardcore, ear-bashing moments shouldn’t... [Read more of this review]
