Arguably, the Scandinavian countries have become to the death metal/black metal field what Chicago is to the blues -- not the place that gave birth to the genre, but definitely the place that came to dominate it. While death metal/black metal didn't get started in Scandinavia any more than the blues were invented in Chicago, the list of important death metal and black metal bands that have come from Sweden, Norway, or Denmark is endless. That said, one can give props to the Nordic countries without neglecting what the rest of Western Europe has to offer -- and in the Netherlands, one of the more noteworthy death metal/black metal bands of the '90s and 2000s has been God Dethroned. Lair of the White Worm doesn't break any new ground for the Dutch moshers, but it's a respectable, above-average effort that illustrates their ability to incorporate elements of power metal and thrash without sacrificing their death metal/black metal brutality. It would be a mistake to categorize this 40-minute CD as either "melodic death metal" or "symphonic black metal"; Lair of the White Worm isn't as melodic or as musical as In Flames, At the Gates, Khold, or Callenish Circle (another Dutch band). But this 2004 recording isn't amelodic grindcore, either, and for God Dethroned, moments of ultra-fast ferocity can be followed by some guitar work or harmonies that recall Iron Maiden or Judas Priest. If Lair of the White Worm is meant to balance musicality and sledgehammer ferocity, the latter ends up having the upper hand -- even so, this album does, in its own vicious, skull-crushing way, have a sense of craftsmanship. And once again, God Dethroned reminds listeners that you don't have to be Scandinavian to make worthwhile contributions to death metal/black metal. ~ Alex Henderson

Lair Of The White Worm CD music
$13.55 Heavy metal guitar stalwart George Lynch returns with REvolution, a 13-track set featuring re-recorded versions of Dokken and Lynch Mob classics. Vocalist Rob Mason and bassist Anthony Esposito have returned to the Lynch Mob fold for this project; they are joined behind the drum kit by newcomer Michael "Fro" Frowein. Together, the combo does a mostly bang-up job with the material. Lynch's guitar lines are leaner and meaner throughout, emulating the newly buff physique of Mr. Scary himself. And while Mason's singing style is that of a journeyman metal vocalist, he wisely relies on power here, dispensing with the kind of upper-register histrionics favored by Don Dokken and Oni Logan that defined -- and subsequently maligned -- 1980s metal. REvolution lifts off with the Dokken classic "Tooth and Nail"; it's essentially the same song, only rippling with a new sense of purpose that's palpable throughout the record. It's immediately clear that while Lynch and his mates are having fun with this return to their roots, they're also reveling in the spit-shine they've given the material.
While an aging copy of Tooth and Nail or Too Fast for Love can still be a thrilling ride, hindsight makes the sins of these and other '80s hair classics more evident. The horn section that pops up on "Tangled in the Web" (from 1992's Lynch Mob) probably seemed like a good idea at the time, but it hasn't aged well. "Tangled in the Web" 2003 amps up Lynch's riffs and rumbles along on the strength of Fro's muscular drum fills. "She's Evil But She's Mine" is all grunged up, complete with Alice in Chains-style chorus vocals. Lynch again cuts his original performance to the quick, letting ...
