WITCHCRAFT: THE ALCHEMIST 2008-12-20 20:21:00 Withchcraft. I know I've posted about them before, but I just can't enough of their unique brand of neo late '60's early '70's psych rock. I've been spinning their latest album "The Alchemist" a lot lately and I swear these guys are on to something big....If you're into The Doors, Black Sabbath, Pentagram, Cream, Jethro Tull and the like check this album out.Here's "Walk Between the Lines", a perf
BIT PARTS 2008-12-18 05:53:00 Dave Reda's "Bit Parts" is a sick and twisted gore flick that harkens back to the good old days of the '60's, '70's, and early '80's. It's part H. G. Lewis and part some forbidden fruit of a horror movie you would pick up to rent at some dilapidated, sleazy, run down video store on the wrong side of town...but you don't care because you have the greasy old video tape in your hands and you're on yo
AT THE DRIVE-IN: "Relationship of Command" 2008-12-17 05:48:00 At the Drive-In's "Relationship
of Command"(2000). This is the only album I have by this band. I have only heard a small amount of their other material, but this album is constantly finding it's way into my CD player somehow. At the Drive-In are a highly emotive mix of punk and prog-metal. They sound like a strange marriage between a revved up Fugazi and the, heavy, progressive, sci-fi metal of Vo
MARK OF THE ASTRO-ZOMBIES 2008-12-15 06:28:00 Ted V. Mikels' MARK OF THE ASTRO-ZOMBIES. Mind-numbing, gleeful fun! A sequel of sorts to his ASTRO-ZOMBIES movie of the late 1960's, this new one has several twists that will keep you guessing, the worst special effects in the galaxy, and the most wooden, horrendous acting I've ever seen! Just suspend all disbelief and you'll be ok. And keep your copy of THE MISFITS WALK AMONG US cd close by.....
MOTORHEAD: THE ACE OF SPADES 2008-12-13 09:23:00 Motorhead. No matter if you love 'em or hate 'em, you can't deny their influence on metal and hard rock in general over the past three decades. After leaving the space rock band Hawkwind in the early mid 1970's, Lemmy came foward on his own in full force with Motorhead. With a biker image, blazing fast tempos, deafening guitars and growling vocals, biker metal was born, and rock and roll became ex
THE GORE GORE GIRLS 2008-12-11 06:25:00 "Nothing has ever stripped your nerves as screamingly raw as THE GORE GORE GIRLS!" So goes the promo for this Herschell Gordon Lewis splatter fest.....and for once the teaser is dead-on because you will be needing a shower, some psyhco-therapy, and a barf bag(if you're the squeamish type) after you've feasted your eyes on this blood feast to end all blood feasts!Made in 1972 at the end of H.G Lewi
SPIRIT CARAVAN-"The Last Embrace" 2008-12-10 06:15:00 Spirit Caravan. Anybody out there ever heard of this band? They are led by ex-Saint Vitus and Obsessed singer Scott "Wino" Weinrich. Like the two bands he came from, they are doomy stoner metal, but Spirit Caravan has a more unique sound than the other two. Filled with earth-moving riffs and grooves, a small dose of Sabbath worship, and gloomy introspective vocals, Spirit Caravan were a band to be
THE SADIST 2008-12-08 19:10:00 Who the hell is this guy with the ugly mug? It's Arch Hall, Jr., the worst rockabilly singer of all time! I've seen WILD GUITAR and I swear, he cannot carry a tune to save his life!! And his acting! It's just as bad as his singing, or so I thought........Then this movie THE SADIST caught my eye. It had gotten some good reviews but I was highly skeptical..... but I broke down and bought it and it b
Siouxsie and the Banshees "Red Light" 2008-12-08 18:40:00 I'm no huge Siouxsie and The Banshees fan, but there's something about the stark minimalism of this song and the album it came from, "Kaleidosope", that I love. This song's been creeping around in my head all day at work. Here it is..."Red Light
".
THE CORPSE GRINDERS 2 2008-12-08 06:30:00 LOTUS CAT FOOD: FOR CATS WHO LOVE PEOPLE.Has any one seen the first CORPSE
GRINDERS from 1972? It's a doozy.....slow, poorly acted, too low budget for its own good, but great entertainment! A couple of people decide to make cat food from human corpses by using a corpse-grinding machine. Cats start attacking people, the criminals get caught, and the corpse grinding machine turns the bad guys into c
THE SWANS 2008-12-07 11:40:00 The Swans are a unique down-tempo, brooding art rock band that peaked in the late'80's & early '90's. Their two best works are "The Burning World"(1987), and "White Light From the Mouth of Infinity"(1991)."The Burning World" is a dark, quite, brooding record with Michael Gira's deep, gloomy voice and Jarbo's beautiful yet haunting background vocals creating a soothing, pitch as black soundscap
THE SWORD: "Age of Winters" and "Gods Of the Earth" 2008-12-06 17:20:00 The Sword. Borrowing a few ideas from doom-maestro's Black Sabbath and Pentagram and mixing them up with speed metal a la early Mettalica and Slayer, these guys blew me away about a year ago when I picked up "Gods of the Earth
"(2008). Let me tell you, that is one hell of a heavy disc. It's dizzying at times with non-stop pummeling guitar work, crushing riffs, slightly detached Ozzy-esque vocals, Read more:Winters
Kyuss-"Demon Cleaner" 2008-12-06 16:50:00 One of my all time fave songs by Kyuss...more on them another day. Right now this song has been going through my head all day and it won't leave, not that I really want it to...not a bad video either.
PSYCHOMANIA 2008-12-06 06:54:00 PSYCHOMANIA(1971), directed by Don Sharp. I was a bit skeptical about this movie at first, but it exceeded my expectations. Basically it is about a violent motorcycle gang called "The Living Dead" that wreaks terror and havoc on their city. The gang leader's mother is heavily into the occult and she has found the secret to immortality. The object of her worship is rather strange indeed...a frog! S
PENTAGRAM 2008-12-05 06:21:00 Pentagram was a great metal band that came out about the same time Black Sabbath did, the late '60's/early "70's. They both had a doomy approach to metal. While Sabbath was all doom and gloom, however, Pentagram was more up tempo and edgy. They were also into the heavy, euphoric, psychedelic rock of Blue Cheer, so that gave then a more lively edge than Sabbath.They released very little material in
WESTWORLD MOVIE REVIEW 2008-12-03 20:40:00 Michael Crichton's WESTWORLD. Are any of you out there familiar with this movie? It came out in 1973 and is written and directed by the author himself. I was a bit skeptical about this one at first, but I picked it up on DVD a few years ago and I was not disappointed. In fact, I just watched it for the fifth time the other day, and let me tell you, it holds up well to repeated viewings.WESTWORLD i
