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.

Melodic stoner band with heavy slabs of riffs and fantastic vocals
This German act have finally started to take off. 'Race to Resurrection' captures the feel of stoner bands like Clutch and Volbeat but mixes in a phenomenal traditional feel worthy of Armored Saint and Metallica. Vocally, it is spot on while the guitars churn and burn to the finish. While down-tuned and chugging the heavy slabs, there's a tremendous amount of melody and commercial aspects to the chorus bits. Overall, another solid effort by a great band that needs to be recognized more and more.
Recommended for fans of: Armored Saint, Volbeat, Clutch
