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.

This Japanese band took ten years to make a follow-up to their debut "Deletion Of Humanoise". At one point I had high hopes for this act, hoping that their tight thrash battery would be a bit more relevant in a crowded scene of retro. This new album continues the precision and accuracy of nailing raw thrash in the tradition of Kreator. The blackened vocals and a maniacal sense of timing changes keep things interesting but I feel that this would have been less superficial and more important if it came out five to eight years ago.
