Cracked Brain Music Review

Average Rating: (3.7 out of 5 stars) 3.5 stars

5 stars Why do people hate this album?
This is my favorite Destruction album. I'm not sure why people hate it. It has their best song ever, "Die a Day Before You're Born". Other highlights are the title track and "When Your Mind Was Free".

3 stars excellent guitar, horrible vocals
This album is a bit experimental for Destruction, being a little too much for fans. It really shouldn't be considered a Destruction album, but a side project. The only thing to consider is the guitar work, which is excellent. Great team work by Mike and Harry, very creative. The lyrics, on the other hand are a joke. The singer is horrible.I would give Cracked Brain 5 out of 5 if it was all instrumental. One thing to remember, NO SCHMIER, NO DESTRUCTION! Side project!

Katatonia Night Is The New Day CD (2009)

$14.38

The latest album from Swedish doom rockers Katatonia, their first studio effort since 2006, is as moody and beautiful as their other latter-day work. The group's career can be marked in two stages based on the condition of singer Jonas Renske's vocal cords -- basically, after the band's first two albums, he developed health problems that prevented him from performing ...

Dutch pomp-metal band Epica, fronted by classically trained mezzo-soprano Simone Simons, released their second album for Nuclear Blast only a year after their label debut, the more unique The Classical Conspiracy. That two-disc live set found them performing a mix of classical works and their own songs with backing by a full orchestra and choir. This album offers more of their bombastic goth metal songs, with Simons' vocals floating ...

IQ Frequency CD (2009)

Cracked Brain songs

$14.35

It isn't hard to find listeners who aren't huge fans of progressive rock on the whole but are passionate followers of certain prog bands -- and if you ask them why they enjoy Pink Floyd, Yes, or the Moody Blues so much more than they enjoy other prog bands, they'll tell you that their favorites have mastered something that the others haven't: great hooks. And without a doubt, hooks are a major reason why some of IQ's most devoted followers are people who don't necessarily buy a lot of prog rock CDs. Hooks are certainly a major plus on Frequency, which has an immediacy that a lot of prog recordings lack. This 2009 release is quite listenable, ...

To its legion of fans, everything the band Tool does is an event, but the elaborate plan behind their sporadic release schedule--roughly five years, on average, between albums--is due primarily to the time and effort the band packs into each successive effort. To title their fourth album 10,000 DAYS, then, isn't as much an exaggeration as it ...

Five Finger Death Punch War Is The Answer CD (2009)

Cracked Brain CD music

$11.59

Five Finger Death Punch stormed rock radio in 2007 with "The Bleeding" (from debut album THE WAY OF THE FIST), a powerful, emotionally tense track that matched vintage, Metallica-style thrash with a throat-shredding chorus more typical of late aughts metalcore. The Los Angeles-based band's sophomore disc WAR IS THE ANSWER mines much of the same territory as that breakout song, keeping the flame of the classic `80s Four Horsemen sound alive with snap-tight chugga-chugga guitar rhythms, minor-key, classical music-inspired clean/acoustic passages, and vocals dripping with a James Hetfield-approved combination of sensitive angst and macho defiance. First single "Hard to See" backs a catchy, harmony-vocal laden melody with a syncopated groove so rhythmically engaging it could almost be called ...

Formerly known as Throne of Chaos and formerly lumped in with the black metal ghetto, TOC has passed through several phases of experimentation, dabbling in classical and progressive variants before settling, apparently, on a sound that comes across as a sort of prog-death-psychedelic hybrid. The band has retained its love of sonic size and heavyosity, piling layers of chugging guitars on top of each other and (on songs like "Acid Highway") alternating guttural roars with operatic, vibrato-laden cries. Elsewhere there are clear echoes of old-school King Crimson ("Gothamburg") and moments of straight-up blissful melodic rock & roll ("Wait"). When the mercifully brief guitar showpiece "Blue Lady Suite" segues into the very dark and death-laden "Break-a-Neck," you know you're in the presence of something pretty unusual. Whether it's something you want to spend an hour of your time with will depend mainly on whether you're someone who sees the attraction of both Cannibal Corpse and King's X. If those sound like mutually contradictory tastes to you, then you may be more befuddled than enthralled by this album. ~ Rick Anderson Formerly known as Throne of Chaos and formerly lumped in with the black metal ghetto, TOC has passed through several phases of experimentation, dabbling in classical and progressive variants before settling, apparently, on a sound that comes across as a sort of prog-death-psychedelic hybrid.
