Man Or Astro-man? - What Remains Inside A Black Hole (1997)

This album contains one of my favorite covers of The Bel-Airs tune "Squad Car," which is a classic song covered by many, many surf rock bands. If surf music for the most part bores you and you want something with a little more kick, a little more grime and dirt-- this band should do the trick. It's got the great basslines and echoing guitar you'd expect and hopefully want from surf rock music, but it has that spit-shine of sleaze, the way Motörhead adds to rock and metal.

Torn Apart - Ten Songs For Bleeding Hearts (1999)

This isn't a very good hardcore album; in fact by today's standards, it might almost fit in. However, it came over 10 years ago, and at the time, I loved it! Torn Apart was a hardcore band from Baltimore, Maryland that existed from about 1994 to 2001. This was out before it could be labeled metalcore and was nice and pissed off for anyone who was able to find them. At times, sounding like Coalesce, Turmoil-- they played alongside bands at the time like Adamantium, Disembodied, Endeavor, XDiscipleX A.D., Indecision (getting nostalgic yet? Or too young to remember?), and blew minds in the late 90's at many hardcore festivals up and down the east coast. Right when they began to blow up though it seemed they disappeared, and only recently did I see that they had officially disbanded by 2001. Their other releases are nearly impossible to find, so if anyone actually likes this, I can continue searching. This was more a nostalgia trip and a request fulfillment for my brother than anything else. Also, the Guns 'N' Roses cover is absolutely garbage. Not even funny, it's bad.

G.A.T.E.S. - Total Death (2005)

"Total Death" is a compilation of G.A.T.E.S' material from an early demo that was released in 2003 and the rest being songs from a split with another band called Metal Skull. This Japanese four-piece puts out filthy sounding Motörhead-meets-Entombed with some Death Breath in the mix too. This side project featuring members of Japan's most notable stoner metal band Church Of Misery is far more in tune what I like; it's fast-paced, heavy, evil but groovy with a slight upbeat to the overall feel. Extremely catchy, sleazy and memorable stuff. If you think this reminds you of Motörhead, well, there's even a Motörhead cover to top it off. I actually like this a lot more than Motörhead, though.

1. G.A.T.E.S. - 4:32
2. Sacrifice - 4:46
3. Demon Crusade - 2:37
4. Night Howl - 3:59
5. Filth - 3:22

Battlemaster - Spells, Boots, & Portals (2010)

This quick and most recent offering from Battlemaster is a faster, heavier fondling session and the foreplay before the penetration that is the full-length album that will come. Soon. A crowd hit, "Cursed Boots Of Perpetual Dancing," will have you kicking up dirt like a pit bull and ready to crash into the next JNCO gorilla with long hair over and over. It has a rumbling guitar that goes into a frenzied tornado of black thrash and rolling drums to keep you dancing for four straight minutes, if you can stop there. "Total Aboleth Funeral" has you envisioning an ocean of dead squid-like beasts laid out to be cast into the wind, and "Portal Escape" keeps the speed at the tops while those dancing boots follow you closely. It's short, sweet, and probably the best thing you'll hear for a long while.
