Grave Digger: Ballads of a Hangman (2009) Music Review – By Baron Craze

I must admit that I have been a long-time fan of this band, listened to all their albums, nevertheless the group helped me become introduced to other German heavy bands that emerge in the early 80s, along with such acts as Helloween, Running Wild, and Accept, but I still find myself able to review the…


Hellripper: Black Arts and Alchemy (2019) – By Baron Craze

If you’re unaware of who and what is Hellripper, take this quick introduction it is James McBain and sheer speed, thrash, black metal with no regrets or lack of blasphemy intensity. This was an EP of his released-on April 5, 2019 through Reaper Metal Productions, coming two years after his stellar ‘Coagulating Darkness’ (2017) and while…


Cradle of Filth: The Principle of Evil Made Flesh (1994) – By Baron Craze

On February 24, 1994, Cradle of Filth made their mark on the music scene with their studio debut album entitled ‘The Principle of Evil Made Flesh’ on Cacophonous Records; which followed three demos and split with Malediction that ranged from 1991 to 1993. While some mark this as black metal, that isn’t quite correct, yeah, it’s…


Genitorturers: 120 Days of Genitorture (1993) Music Review – By Baron Craze

I normally don’t give warnings to readers when on the subject of music reviews, but this one does recommend that I do just that, and it is NSFW atmosphere, as the subject material is highly sexualized and deemed, well not for the sensitive folks. Hee-hee. Without a doubt Genitortures fulfills the provocative exploits on the…


Vince Neil: Exposed (1993) Music Review – by Vincent Mento

I have always been a fan of the bar bands, especially those that go on to capture huge success, well that would include the band Motley Crue, and this review is gonna need some backstory before going forward. Often bands have a falling out with the bandmates, friends, drinking pals, living for a long time…


Anthrax: Among the Living (1987) Music Review – By Baron Craze

There can be no denying this is a classic thrash metal album, capturing the perfect mosh experience from the opening song you know the ride is in full motion, because this was/is phenomenally good and fun, it was Anthrax’s third major release and their breakthrough one. Those opening chords of the first song, delivering increasing…


Lita Ford: Lita (1988) Music Review – By Vincent Mento

There was thought, long ago, and perhaps some still exist today with narrow-minded folks primarily record executives decided women couldn’t play hard rock or metal, they were soft and delicate flowers, completely sexist. I’ve always enjoyed musicians who express themselves freely allowing their art to speak for itself, regardless of race or sex, and honestly,…


Death: Scream Bloody Gore (1987) Music Review – By Baron Craze

I know this will date me heavily, but I know exactly where I purchased this album, and began my new journey into more extreme metal, up that point I was a metal head, listening to all types, searching for what I enjoyed the most. There was no one in my area into the music that…


Weregoat: The Devil’s Lust (2022) Music Review – By Baron Craze

I’ve never done this before for any review, however for those in a sensitive area, this is a NSFW work due the song titles and artwork. When I first saw the perverse artwork and then to the track listing for this EP I was sold, and in fact, I have permission to play the band’s…


Sunstorm: Brothers in Arms (2022) Music Review – By Vincent Mento

I figure most friends and fans of this site would not expect this review, however that still means I’m a new writer with not many knowing my interest, you see this band had featured Joe Lynn Turner vocalist of former bands of Rainbow and Deep Purple, two bands I like very much. Like Baron, who…
