Vs Tuesday: Two Bands! One Song! Who Wins?! FIGHT! Fear Held Dear.

There is no doubt that the ongoing musings of Dino Cazares in the Fear Factory camp have made for interesting sound bite over the past few years but… everything seems to happen at a glacial pace. Yes we’ve gratefully received a album in “Aggression Continuum” and a remix album in “Recoded” but no shows to

Review: “Totem” by Soulfly

Twenty five years after their inception the arrival of the twelfth album from Phoenix Arizona based Soulfly in “Totem” is one that offers a certain amount of intrigue.
