It looks like it is going to be a hell of a good year. Or so it would seem. Though, I&#8217;ll be honest, I&#8217;ve been less than happy with [...]]]></description>

The concept of a band starring in a short film produced by the label isn&#8217;t a common occurrence in the scene and I was curious to see if I would love or hate it.

Typically, their albums are met with ravishing reviews and we have come to expect nothing but excellence from the quintet. So it is no surprise that we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in February I reviewed the latest and probably final record from Canadian doom band, Woods of Ypres. It was both a review and a final piece of mourning for the passing of founding member David Gold, who died in a car accident late last year. I discussed the various merits of the album, and in the end claimed it was the band's strongest effort, and easily deserving a five out of five on the site.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whitechapel are among my favorite bands, playing one of the more cohesive styles of deathcore out there, not laden with breakdowns or chugs. For some reason, they have always stepped it up from record to record, but still keep their signature sound. With the majority of bands heading down the &#8220;djent&#8221; path these days, it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Coming out of the gate strong with their debut record One last year, Tesseract became progressive metal darlings, touring the world and playing shows with the likes of Periphery, Between the Buried and Me, Animals as Leaders, and Devin Townsend Project. Without a doubt, they were set to reach the upper echelons of the genre, with One hitting up more than a couple of our year-end best of lists. Of course, the year wasn't without its troubles; the fanbase was divided when vocalist Daniel Tompkins left the band late in the year and was quickly replaced by former Sky Eats Airplane vocalist Elliot Coleman, leaving many to speculate on the future of the band. ]]></description>
