NAME: Sing Sing Death House
ARTIST: The Distillers
RATING:
REVIEW: The Distillers second album and their most recognized albums. First song is
'Sick of it All' and Brody is just putting it out on us, you have everything from going to school and killing someone for making fun of you, to a girl who throws up to get thinner. The chorus saying "murder, murder a ripe blood stain pull the fucking trigger cause I'm sick of it all." Then the break down at the end gives you some hope singing about kids in America who think life is a scam, but we power though with Punk Rock. Next is
'I Am a Revenant' nice flow to it and the chorus goes "We will Rise up again, we become the living we come back to reclaim our stolen breath" which is pretty powerful. One of the most famous songs off this album is
'Seneca Falls' which is featured on Tony Hawk Pro Skater game where you might recognize the classic punk 3 power cords. On to
'The Young Crazed Peeling' this song had its own video. A very poppy beat and will deffanitly get you in a good mood once you listen to it. Bordy sings about her troubled childhood and when she met her husband and moved to california. One of THE top songs of the album thats for sure.
'Bullet and The Bullseye' is another angery, fast, and punk song. Want to tell somone you hate them? Do it with this song the lyrics are "You think I'm a sucker? Your fucking sick the only thing I suck is my mans dick!". Priceless. Another hit off this album is
'City of Angels' it's a lot nicer and softer singing about LA. There isn't much screaming going on but hey they can't do that in every song (sadly). Last song is
'Lordy Lordy' starts out slow, then kicks into high gear. You will never think of jail the same "If prison is a cell, then its raging in my blood" Thank you Brody for showing us your sweet side! What do I say? Give it a chance, its pretty classic punk rock.
NAME: Orchids and Ammunition
ARTIST: Drist
RATING:
REVIEW: This album is a minor punk. alternative, metal combination that in my honored opinion....WAS FUCKING AMAZING! The album has pretty clean vocals and the guitarist Marcus Henderson show his skill on songs like
'Pollute the Sound' and
'Arterial Black' The song
'Decontrol' is quite famous as it was on the original Guitar Hero and most people have herd it. This album is Drist's second released official album and it defiantly beat the first. This CD contains a extremely long instrumental
'Red Decibel Reunion' and although it is long it makes the CD build up in AWESOMENESS! Overall any punk music or alternative lover should
DEFIANTLY get this album. - Pedo
NAME: Grotesque Impalement
ARTIST: Dying Fetus
RATING:
REVIEW: ere we go with some real heavy music. Dying Fetus, some real heavy death metal. With intense, heavy, and catchy riffs this album will kick your fucking ass. As you can guess, with a name like Dying Fetus they will have some pretty gross shit, and this does not disappoint. Grotesque Impalement is only an EP, with about 6 tracks. The second to last track is just a comedy skit, which pretty much makes me laugh every time. After that, the last track is a big surprise. First of all it has an astoundingly long name. The name is "Hail Mighty North/Forest Trolls of Satan (Anno Clitoris 666 Opus 11)." The track is actually a parody of an 80's power ballad. The song is actually awesome. The riffs are really catchy. The lyrics are hilarious, and the whole song as a whole is great. All in all, if you're looking for some music to satisfy your sick, heavier-side-of-metal cravings, pick this EP right the fuck up.
