Speed Metal Sentence - Cranium
Fun thrash revival.
Copy-cats.
Live Volume - Corrosion of Conformity
Great, authentic, loyal performance.
Uneven focus on the band's more recent style.
Carpet - Ceremonial Oath
Pleasant lead guitars, and an insight into the early years of melodic death metal.
It's all about the guitars, and even those aren't particularly stunning.
Mes Courants Electriques - Alizée
Pop Rock - 2004
The Endless Agony - Anachronia
Exceptional guitars and vocals, and the other guys aren't bad either.
A few later tracks fail to stand out quite as much.
Too Many Freaks Not Enough Stages - Pama International
Some excellent laid back Ska tunes.
There are only eight tracks on the album.
Biledegradable - Bile
Saves having to buy the previous E.P.
Not much of interest, and deviations are unsatisfying.
Ba Dop Boom Bang - Grandmaster Flash
Hip-Hop & Rap - East Coast - 2005
