Upon hearing the name Crash Music, one tends to think of a company that has signed a lot of young bands from the metal underground -- underground as in death metal, black metal, grindcore, metalcore, and hardcore. The Phoenix, AZ-based company hasn't worked with a lot of veteran artists, but it has worked with some, including Diamond Rexx, Paul Di'Anno (who was Iron Maiden's lead singer before Bruce Dickinson), and Omen. An underexposed fantasy metal/power metal band that goes back to 1983, Omen has never been a big name in the headbanger world, but it does have a small cult following. Although released in 2003 -- the year that marked Omen's 20th anniversary -- Eternal Black Dawn sounds like it could have been recorded in the late '70s or early '80s. This CD is fantasy metal/power metal in the classic sense -- classic as in Maiden, Ronnie James Dio, UFO, King Diamond, and Judas Priest. In fact, Eternal Black Dawn is totally untouched by post-'80s, post-Nevermind trends in metal and hard rock; the disc is oblivious to alternative metal and there isn't a trace of grunge, death metal, rap-metal/rapcore, industrial metal, or even thrash to be found on any of the songs. Eternal Black Dawn is loud and aggressive, but not in a harsh, punishing, go-for-the-jugular way. Omen's work is actually quite melodic -- especially compared to some of the ultra-brutal, ferocious death metal and metalcore that Crash Music has released in the 21st century. Eternal Black Dawn isn't as consistent as it could have been, but for the most part, Omen's writing is decent -- and while the disc falls short of exceptional, it's worth checking out if you're a die-hard fan of old-school fantasy metal. ~ Alex Henderson

Eternal Black Dawn CD music
$9.69 
Lizzy Borden's second studio album, following the live The Murderess Metal Road Show by only a few months, is the band's career high point. A nice balance between the energetic but cliché-ridden pop-metal of its debut and the undistinguished Poison ripoffs of its later albums, Menace to Society drops the dopey Spinal Tap-like ...
| | Whitesnake Come An Get It CD (Import) United Kingdom
Eternal Black Dawn music CDs
$13.15
Whitesnake, the pop-metal band featuring former Deep Purple singer David Coverdale, released the album COME AN' GET IT in 1981.
Despite the massive talents of vocalist David Coverdale and his supporting cast of musicians (not to mention the unimpeachable resumé of producer Martin Birch), Come an' Get It was another maddeningly average Whitesnake album. A thoroughly boring set that played it too safe and yielded no lasting live favorites, Come an' Get It was competent to the max -- in the hands of a debuting artist, it may have qualified as a classic -- but for a near-supergroup of such experience and pedigree, it instead smacked of severe underachievement. Rare highlights include the driving energy of "Hot Stuff," the lively bar-room piano of "Wine, Women and Song," and the wistful, acoustic balladry of "Till the Day I Die." But these share space with run-of-the-mill bluesy rockers like "Don't Break My Heart Again" and "Would I Lie to You" -- all of them hard to fault, but equally impossible ...

Eternal Black Dawn album
$13.15
SELF is a puzzle. It is a book with pages ripped out and tossed into the air, left for the listener to reassemble. It is a vibrant, revealing, intense amalgam of dark, interwoven revelations and angry pop culture references, dropped into chaos, and lost in Boston.It is an album to get you psyched before a swim meet. It is an album to debate contentiously with three friends in a car in the middle of the woods in the middle of the night. It is an album that will cause you to reconsider the value of albums as a whole work of art.Jon Watts has grown in leaps and bounds since his last project, showing off his production and guitar work in songs like FLAS, in which his three acoustic guitars weave their way around a sneaking solid bassline, leaving just the right amount of room for the voice in his head to dance.From the epic bridge between FLAS and LOST IN BOSTON in which Jon declares “There’s something in the middle of the sun for y’all” (a hint for the listener that he later develops upon at the album’s sweeping self-referential conclusion) to creative challenges like the parallel stereo verse in ONE FLEW WEST - a song constructed solely utilizing Radiohead samples - Jon indeed shows great development as a producer, a guitarist and a poet.“Give me something to work with, I need to know its worth it. Beginning at birth, the whole world isn’t perfect,” Jon bellows over a 6/8 tabla beat in LOST IN BOSTON, simultaneously revealing the deepest nature of the album and telling the unrelated story of a homeless man who he passed briefly on the streets of Boston. “Born into a culture whose intentions are quite off, I’m hoping to mention to listeners: I write often. A Molotov coffin who’s lost in Boston holds a candle to the cost of one fallen offspring.”Jon Watts’ syllables sympathetically sillouette spontaneous struggles to stay social and solicit his self, sending the listener spread-eagled, sprawling spiritually in the spirit of Slug and Saul Williams simultaneously.You get the feeling that Jon is literally looking himself in the mirror as he lets drop power and self-revealing lines like “Sometimes I just cry and remember I’m alive/think of those I’ve loved and who’ve loved me/but above those I’ve loved is my self/I remember that you’ve got to love yourself to be something.” With references to Atmosphere, Hansel and Gretel, The Great Mouse Detective, Radiohead, Dr. Suess, Saul Williams and 16th century English poet John Donne, Jon follows in the longstanding poetic tradition of giving his audience a stimulating piece of art that only becomes more ...
