Viking Rock

Amon Amarth Under The Influence 

Viking metal gods came out with a ep of covers of 4 classic metal bands Motörhead, Judas Priest, AC/DC, and Black Sabbath.  

Burning Anvil Of Steel is a cover of   and it absolutely sounds like an old school metal song but with a giant, drunk Swedish man growling at me. 

Satan Rising has the same drunken Swedish man reach a surprising register as he does an amazing job imitating Ozzy instead of doing a death metal growl. 

Snake Eyes has the giant Swede putting on more of rock voice and the guitar solo is spot on.  

Stand Up To Go Down came on and I instantly knew that this was going to be a great rendition of AC/DC. 

This EP is a buy for anyone who loves covers especially when bands do a good job covering these songs. Also the fact that these are some really obscure songs makes it even more of a jewel.

PT Cruiser

Pastor Troy Crown Royal

Hosted by DJ Scream

The song U Ain't Heard About Me is actually a song questioning people on why they haven't heard about him and mentions the songs he was featured on included Throw It Up by Lil John. 

War is a song that first appeared on his cd Tool Muzic but he had put it on here again. Good thing this is a good song. 

Can you guess which song Cold As Ice samples?

All The Way Crunk Up features Lil John and is also the first artist to be featured on it. It's good that they buried the hatchet and Lil John forgave him for that diss track. Also Waka Flaka gets the last verse in.

Band Of Brothers

Chevelle la gorgola 

The band of brothers (literally) is back. It's been too long since they've out out a good cd and here it is. 

Ouija Board - The son starts off with a slow weird noise effect then kicks right off to a kicking new song. 

Take Out The Gunman was a little different than something they've ever done before. Not sure why maybe it was the Cowbell or what. Also every song has ended with guitar sustain and began with an effect. 

Jawbreaker is my favorite song on the cd. Check out that solo and the sound of the cymbals along with that low bass. 

H3

Hank Williams III rambling man


Rambling man - not a nod to the song with the same title actually it's a lot different than some of his other stuff. Not very outlaw but getting more in touch with his grandfathers style. 

Marijuana Blues starts off as a thrash song but goes right into some good kicking rebellious country. 

  Hang On was a great song. A little bit of distortion and delay on Hank's voice made his twangy voice sound like a rock singer. 

This is a great EP so anyone who has followed his career would enjoy to buy this on iTunes. 

6blocc

6blocc Supreme Dub

The title track on this single by the trap producer is hugely influenced by reggae just like trap and Dubstep songs usually are. Bumbaclot with a guitar sounding synth and it trades off using a snare and clap on the beat. 

Gimme a Hell yeah!

Hellyeah Blood for Blood

Sangre Por Sangre is a cover of hardcore band Blood For Blood I've never heard this song because I have only heard of Blood a For Blood but I will check them out now that I heard this song. 

Cross To Bier is a cover of the band Cradle Of Bones now I have never heard of these guys either but I will check them out now. 

I'm guessing Hellyeah made these songs there own but if you never heard of these bands this might be the opportunity to check them out and stream these covers.

Scream For Me

Markus Schulz - Scream 2

Fourth track in Remember This and I'm still not impressed with any of the songs until this one came on.  

By the time Distino comes on now I realize that every song has 18 seconds of silence before it begins and there was nothing wrong with my iPod. 

Dancing In The Key of Life is such a good title and also such a good song with a happy lead line. 

Make You Fall is a nice little love songs with romantic trance arpeggiated synth and the female vocalist delivery was the strongest on the album.  The only thing I thought was weird that it was edited. 

So this album is only OK. Check out the song Marti Gras, DJs, for your sets. Trance fans might enjoy this so buy it if you really like trance.

Outer space Zoo


Bro Safari and UFO - Animal

This collaboration between these producers lead to some pretty strange songs with also some good ones also some songs only with cool parts. 

Drama is what trap music is ment to be. Gun shot samples, hard beat, and some rap samples. 

The Dealer is a Dubstep song that screams at the listener to acknowledge that Brostep is still alive. 

Animal the title track sounded like one of the songs from Infected Mushroom's Dubstep album. 

Burn The Block samples Biggie Smalls ("Start stacking and gun packing and burn the block apart) and again has gunshot samples. 


This release was ok. The ones to buy are Drama and Burn The Block. Also check out the Deluxe edition for remixes of all the songs done by ETC! ETC! and Evol Intent and others.
