In an antiMusic first, a single artist will be the focus for an entire month. Each day this month Tony K will examine a different chapter in Bruce Springsteen's career to discover how he not only became the Boss... but also a music icon.
Xystus - Equilibrio
Simply put, Equilibrio is one of the finest items I have ever had the honor of hearing. Power metal, an orchestra, five singers, and a lyrical concept so cool one will have bricks in their trousers? Yes, I will take it!

Closer - A Darker Kind of Salvation
There really is not much behind this effort besides the obvious truth of modernized metal taking another vicious hit from redundant patterns and unnecessary formulas that stay in a single spot and refuse to flex.
Kottonmouth Kings - The Green Album

Whitechapel - This is Exile
The riffs are more brutal, the drums more crushing, and the vocals more dark and dreary than on the band's impressive debut effort. the band takes on a more death metal vibe than the first album, but they still maintain their knack for crafting heavy breakdowns.
