Automag are an interesting band - their album Hellbound was originally released in 2006 (I think), they fuse metal and southern rock to come up with a hefty, fast redneck sound like Black Label Society at a rodeo contest. The band hail from North Carolina and tend to sing about guns, crime and alcohol. Whilst the topics tend to be similar from their black rapping cousins (don't tell them I said that!), it is refreshing to hear their vanicular and almost seems like words from a bygone age which shows how use we've become to rap! Automag have superb riffs and an overall gritty sound, sit back and listen and you'll find yourself on a ride in the back ... Read the complete review
Products similar to Hellbound - Automag
Whirlpool - Chapterhouse
Trancey, trippy, feedback laden shoegazing fare back from the 90s
Somewhat generic and not the most original example of it's genre
The Real Ramona - Throwing Muses
Influencial, pioneering, inspirational female led Indie rock
A left of centre taste is required for this unique sound
The Battle - Russell Allen
Vocalists of some repute meet a multi-talented musician.
The result is boring, weak and dishonest.
New Wave - Against Me
Highly energised, tightly packed slab of contemporary rock, with no indie influence in sight.
Relies on older styles as much as it forsakes the modern.
My Heart Has A Wish That You Would Not Go - Aereogramme
Could conceivably work well to lull babies to sleep, unless they're especially picky.
Utterly boring and frustratingly quiet.
Complications: Trilogy Of Intricacy - Age Of Silence
An interesting concept performed by veterans of the business.
No one gets to strut their stuff apart from the vocalist, who harks back to the seventies.
Blacken The Angel - Agathodaimon
Nice background music, if you're partial to a bit of the old melodic symphonic extreme metal.
Songs don't stand strong on their own, and the general musicianship is rather bland and dull.
Agents Of Oblivion - Agents Of Oblivion
Dax Riggs perfects his psychedelic style, free from the constraints of Acid Bath.
A little uneven, with the more upbeat stoner rock seeming more like filler amidst the gloom.
Alice In Chains - Alice in Chains
Original, deep, wonderfully-written
You won't find singles here if you're looking for them
