Focused and extremely heavy, Destroy the Machines represented a huge leap forward in the recording career of Earth Crisis. Released in 1995, this full-length debut from the band is the all-time best-selling disc in the Victory Records catalog, and with good reason. After recording a few successful but relatively tame 7" EPs, Earth Crisis really shook the world of hardcore with this punchy collection of metallic straight edge fury. Displaying a rare talent for the development of original yet supremely heavy riffs, the men of Earth Crisis brought a musical directness to Destroy the Machines that easily matches their politically volatile lyrics. Standout cuts include "Forced March," "The Discipline," and "Inherit the Wasteland" that, like the rest of this disc, burn with resentment directed at those who (in the estimation of vocalist Karl Buechner) bring contamination and death to the earth and the defenseless creatures that reside on it. It's hard to think that there are many hardcore fans who don't own this recording, but any listener who leans toward that side of the metal spectrum should definitely consider purchasing this record at the earliest possible opportunity. ~ Vincent Jeffries

This debut from the politically outspoken straight edge outfit Earth Crisis had a huge impact on the American hardcore and metal scenes. Originally released on the tiny independent Conviction Records in 1992, the All Out War EP was eventually released nationally in 1995 on Victory Records. While not nearly as accomplished as the group's later recordings, All Out War is a very direct and ambitious collection. What would become familiar themes of veganism and animal rights are given prominent placement in both the artwork and lyrics. The revolutionary straight edge message is strongly pronounced as the group rips through scathing sonic attacks on all they consider wrong with humanity: animal cruelty, the establishment, ...

The Washington, D.C. straightedge hardcore punk scene began with Minor Threat. The band recorded two LPs on its own Dischord label, plus an EP and the miscellaneous singles that are collected on this CD. Many of the early recordings on this collection seethe with teen-age angst and indignation. The songs rage against bullies, religious hypocrisy, and the herd mentality.

When one listens to the opening guitar strum of "Pinball Wizard" on Pickin' on the Who, it almost sounds like the real thing. Or at least it does until the banjo and then the mandolin kick in. Clearly Pete Townshend never imagined bluegrass versions of "My Generation" and "I Can See for Miles," though even he slipped in a fiddle at the end of "Baba O'Reilly." David West serves as the master of ceremonies on this CMH entry, playing guitar, banjo bass, and mandolin. He's occasionally joined by harpist Tom Ball and fiddler Gabe Witcher. It's ...
| | Lake Of Tears Neonai CD (2003)
Destroy The Machines album
$16.05
Lake of Tears' fifth album, The Neonai, is also set to be their last, with singer/guitarist Daniel Brennare announcing that he will be moving in a different direction, possibly with a new project also named Neonai. And what a pity too, since many would argue that the band was still in its prime. Considering this is the end of the line makes Lake of Tears' trajectory all the more interesting to look back on -- especially since their drastic evolution from depressive doom metal to spacy, post-Pink Floyd goth rock took place without compromising the quality of their music, something other respectable bands like Paradise Lost and Tiamat have failed miserably at. Brought home by the album's fantastical, psychedelic artwork (a bright, colorful, mirror-opposite of the dark collages often used by Cathedral), the truth is that there's little left in Lake of Tears' sound that even resembles heavy metal. Sure, the guitars are usually heavy in tone, but were it not for the group's general propensity for complex, often minor-chord-based songwriting, cuts like "The Shadowshires" and "Solitude" could very well pass for straight-up rock & roll. Even further away from metal, the quasi-ballad "Leave a Room" and the dreamy "Sorcerers" ...

Destroy The Machines album
$11.49
Seattle's pitch-black poster boys for the post hardcore/screamo scene have returned with a raw, vicious fourth album that seethes with emotion. Singer Wil Francis seemed to have exercised some of his demons on his solo side-project William Control, but the pain and fury of his lyrics are still in place with Aiden. KNIVES races forward with unstoppable forward motion, each song lacerating with lashes of melodic guitar and Francis's impassioned voice. Potent anti-religion songs like "Crusifiction" and "Excommunicate" nail hypocrisy to the wall while still maintaining fully hummable choruses, and hugely entertaining punk hand grenades like "the Asylum" and "King on Holiday" hide pop smarts in blistering hardcore tempos. Even the big-statement album closer, "Black Market Hell," retains its accessibility, proving that the secret to Aiden's success is a spoonful of sugar to help all that black, sticky bile go down smoothly.
