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.

  • If you want a Hard Rock album that screams of attitude with in your face lyrics BITCHFIRE is the band you've been looking for!

    BITCHFIRE burst unto the South Florida Hard Rock scene last year with their self titled debut album. Consisting of Boston Rock Goddess Sharyn Peach on vocals. Donny Sutton Brown on guitars. Robbie Plast on bass.

    The simplest way to sum up the album is that it's a story of love gone wrong and the complex web of emotions that soon follow. From feelings of betrayal and vulnerability to revenge and finally empowerment.

    Similiar in vocal style to Lita Ford one can feel Sharyn's emotion bleeding through each and every word. Take the title track 'Bitchfire' a song where a broken heart is masked by a tough exterior. Tracks like 'Fly High' and 'Found Me Again' where bitterness soon turns to finding ones self and realizing true strength comes from within. Then there are songs like 'Toxic Waste' where revenge truly is a dish best served cold. Or 'Vampire' with it's dark and haunting vibe. Yet on cuts like 'Breathe' and 'Run To You' her voice is soothing even if vibrating of pain. And on other standouts like 'Pleasure is Pain' or 'Selfish Heart' it blends together with her ability to hit those notes higher up the register.

    If there is one weak spot to be found it is also one of the best elements in this mix. Donny's guitar work. His licks are hard...at times raw...but so pure that it makes the other instruments seem like filler.

    BITCHFIRE is an album that's hellbent on payback. It comes out with balls swinging and is never relenting.
