Review: God’s Revolver – Little Black Horse, Where Are You...
God’s Revolver Little Black Horse, Where Are You Going With Your Dead Rider? Exigent Records Street: 09.11 God’s Revolver = Priestess + Goatsnake + Blue Cheer Skeptical. That’s the only word to describe how I felt before I listened to this God’s Revolver CD. I’ve seen GR live plenty of times, and they’re a great,
Local Review: xCool Your Jetsx – Saving Grace
xCool Your Jetsx Saving Grace Seventh Dagger Records Street: 05.08 xCool Your Jetsx = Gorilla Biscuits + Youth of Today + 2007 Although I’ve never been straight edge, I’ve always had a fondness for a few straight edge bands, and a certain respect for the bands (and kids) that stayed away from the “tough guy”
Local Review: The Krypled – S/T
The Krypled S/T Self Released Street: 2007 The Krypled = I don’t even think THEY have any idea. This CD is, from start to finish, one of the most boring, hackneyed, been-there-done-that things I’ve ever heard. Honestly, if I wanted to listen to ripped off NWOBHM riffs, I’d much prefer something like Slough Feg…at least
Local Review: Sweet Jesus – Self-Titled
Sweet Jesus Self-Titled Exigent Records Street: 03.07 Sweet Jesus = Hammergun + Form Of Rocket . Yeah, I said it. Honestly, and this is a good thing, Sweet Jesus sounds exactly like Hammergun and Form Of Rocket if you mashed them together. Makes perfect sense, considering bassist Sean McClaugherty was in Hammergun, and guitarist/vocalist Peter
Local Review: Microtia – Distance is Oval
Microtia Distance is Oval Exigent Records Street: 09.11 Microtia = The New Transit Direction + Dulce Sky + Fugazi Musically, Microtia are headed in a direction that, although it has been done to death, is still relatively pleasing to the ears. The entire CD is pretty effect-heavy, which makes me curious as to whether these
Local Review: Medea – We Alone Define Our Distance
Medea We Alone Define Our Distance Exigent Records Street: 09.11 Medea = Gaza (lite) + Birdeater + well, you get the idea… OK, I’ll admit that what Medea is going for here is better than what I’ve heard from a lot of other locals, but at the same time, stop-and-go deathmetalcore is getting kind of…well…played
Local Review: I Am The Ocean – And Your City...
I Am The Ocean And Your City Needs Swallowing Uprising Records Street: 05.15 I Am The Ocean = Katatonia + Into Another + Pink Floyd Slick production does not a good record make, and this sucker is dangerously close to being what I would consider “over-produced.” That being said, and having seen these guys live
Local Reviews: Cherubin
What locals Cherubin have submitted here can be summed up pretty quickly: metalcore. I am not a fan of metalcore. It’s because of these guys (and the current “state” of Utah music, in general) that I’m able to see why the rest of the country feels we’re 10 years behind them. … read more
