Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style. Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun.

Demos and independent releases get some slack since the bands are often spent broke supporting themselves and trying to improve. Major releases usually have big financial backing, so they may be judged by a heavier hand. All scores can be eventually adjusted up or down by comparison of subsequent releases by the same band. We attempt to keep biases out of reviews and be advocates of the consumer without the undo influence of any band, label, management, promoter, etc.

The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Despite having released only two full length albums in their all to short heyday, now defunct Acid Bath created a cult following that survives to this day. This re-release of their second album should explain why: an astonishing mix of goth, punk, and alt/rock with black metal overtones that creates a frightening mix of both self-destruction, and self-exploration. A cosmic melting pot of influences from beginning to end with underground classics such as: Dead Girl, Locust Spawning, and Graveflower-which, if truly taken in, will be appreciated by many different factions of metalhead. For those that are already fans...succumb to the flashback.
