Reviews / Live
Live Review: Devin Townsend Project, Toehider
"Attempting to satiate such a rabid following would surely be a tad daunting, but the selections covered considerable ground from across his prolific solo catalogue."

Writing History
"I guess if I didn’t form this band maybe I would have used one or two of them or something, but I think at the time when I was doing this project, I wasn’t thinking Slipknot at all."
Features / Music
Creative Control
"Dude, I’m such a train-wreck for the most part, as an artist."
Reviews / Live
Live Review: Lamb Of God, Meshuggah
While offering few surprises – songwriting, setlist or performance-wise - they’re crowd-pleasers and there are far worse propositions within the current heavy music climate.
Features / Music
Epic Return
“The band initially started out being this melancholy, melodic, epic metal band and some of that kind of got lost because I think we more simplified our stuff."
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Alter Bridge - Fortress
Highly accessible but soulful, Addicted To Pain’s anthemic hooks, All Ends Well’s uplifting refrain and mini-epic title track fit snugly alongside the groovy, syncopated riffs of Cry A River and Bleed It Dry’s startling Tremonti solo.

Album Review: Dream Theater - Dream Theater
Musical masturbation for aficionados only, though.

Live Review: Twelve Foot Ninja, Breaking Orbit, Meniscus
Although the quintet seem positioned for greater success abroad, largely thanks to deft marketing and utilisation of online tools, with more performances of such a high quality these giant-sized, proudly independent warriors won’t be lurking in the local music industry’s shadows for too much longer.

Conspiratiorial Heavy
"The most recent one was that we were part of the Illuminati, because of the owls that we use. Like a secret society. I don’t remember the whole thing, but it’s like a big conspiracy thing."
Features / Music
Ten Years Of Insanity
"It’s nuts to be ten years on, and still to be able to remember the feeling of playing the youth centre at our first show. A decade – fucking hell."

Album Review: DevilDriver - Winter Kills
Covering indie/electro mob AWOLNATION’s Sail deviates from their norm, but proves to be a misfire. Few curveballs, but another mosh-friendly beast.
