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

August 14, 2023
Music Reviews

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…

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

August 14, 2023
Music Reviews

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…

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,…

It’s sometimes a lot of fun to return to a previous era, reminisce about past memories, enjoyable laughs, what really helps that is music, one can know the year, the sound, so when I saw this album on Baron’s private list of reviewable albums, I jumped at the chance for this one. Let me see…

Alice Cooper didn’t delay after his sober comeback from Constrictor, and his single “He’s Back (The Man Behind The Mask),” which was featured in Friday the 13th, Part VI: Jason Lives [1986], that he released Raise Your Fist and Hell on September 28, 1987 with sadly some of the worst artwork  from a major label,…

There’re so many great bands celebrating lots of good and cool albums this year, with each passing one of them brings back the glory days of youth and wonderfully fun memories, the music for me keeps it fresh without me feeling too old. WOW that’s deep. This is probably my favorite Deep Purple album that…

I gotta say most readers clearly by now know the differences between Baron’s musical interests and mine, and some of our similarities, while I know he’s heard this album, and likely owns a copy of it, it was one of a few that gave me insight to the heavy metal genre some of the bands…

Alice Cooper: Constrictor (1986) – By Baron Craze

Music Reviews

The early eighties were heavily unkind to Alice Cooper, releasing four albums that which would have sunk other artists’ careers, he had struggled to survive the blackout drinking and the dismal and atrocious records Flush The Fashion (1980), Special Forces (1981), Zipper Catches Skin (1982), and Dada (1983); however he worked hard to regain his sobriety (still never…
