I’ve been pretty much addicted to Elder Scrolls Online and these are some albums that have been a great companion to the endless questing and dungeon runs. Some new favorite albums in this lot, kinda all have a spacey or prog vibe with high energy. […]

Here’s what I like so far. I haven’t come close to hearing everything but there’s still time for stuff to make it to the end of year list regardless of release. Links to Bandcamp unless it’s a more mainstream band then it’s Spotify. Check out the Spotify Playlist Noob Heavy Best Of 2020 which will also be the end of year playlist with staff picks added. This is just my curation. […]
As the festival summer is cancelled due to more than well-known reasons (which hits me personally very hard, and I guess most of you as well), Century Media Records and EMP would like to bring at least a kind of similar festival atmosphere in everyone’s living room and announce the ISOLATION FESTIVAL for May 14th.

Secret Band is the heavy side of Dance Gavin Dance and their first LP in 2014 reflected that more accurately. This LP marks their departure from that context as they develop a more unique metal orientated sound. The Metal Archives will have a hard time not accepting Secret Band after this one. I won’t go into the background with DGD, Will, Jon, Eric, Acceptance Speech and Happiness again, you can suss out my first review to read that stuff. […]
These guys represent the under appreciated side of Dance Gavin Dance, the core of the sound the exists without Johnny or Tillian that draws from metal and older post-hardcore/metalcore influences. This record is Jon Mess’ vocal playground where we get to hear just how versatile DGD’s unclean vocalist can be with his unique sound. As far as my appreciation of DGD, the guitars are what always carried their tunes through and the unclean vocals from Mess were some of the clearest and expressive screaming I’ve heard. The success of the Justin Timberlake-esque vocalist in the mix is what spawned a million imitation bands and changed the definition sound of post-hardcore, it became a theatrical farce more than poetry and catharsis. It was a nice sound for a couple of albums but after the whole scene replicated it, it lost its charm and became the standard. For an older fan it sucks watching them live and just seeing these guys who look like they have STD’s in their hair, air humping along to lyrics about love, facing a crowd of underage girls. That’s the side of DGD I can’t fucking stand, and so here is SECRETBAND – the anti-thesis to Isles & Glaciers. Similar to Fear Before and The Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza. […]
