Romance Ain't Dead - Kid Acne

Wake the dead... Comeback Kid is back.

Advantages: Loud and aggressive
Disadvantages: Short album

---Intro--- Upon purchase of this album there was a big lime green sticker telling me it was the 'Hardcore album of the Year'. This should be good hopefully? Comeback Kid is a band from Winnipeg, Canada. Formed in 2002 they started just as a bit of fun. Upon release of an EP, they gained such a good response that they began touring. They released their first album 'Turn it Around' and appeared at shows such as Hellfest and began touring with some bigger named hardcore bands. They describe themselves as sounding like Good Riddance, Anthrax and Nirvana. They released their second album 'Wake the Dead' under Victory Records in February 2005, to much anticipation. ---The Band--- Comeback Kid are: Scott Wade - Vocals Andrew Neufeld - Guitars, Vocals Jeremy Hiebert - Guitar Kyle Profeta - Drums Kevin Call - Bass ...

Review of Wake The Dead - Comeback Kid

LET'S HOPE IT NEVER WILL BE DEAD!!

Advantages: everything from music, vocals, lyrics, preformance
Disadvantages: not one

So what are you doing when you hear deranged fucked up (excuse the language) lyrics mixed in with electronic sounds/music, vocals that sound terrifying but give you some sort of warmth and hope however also as if your in some sort of gory horror film, ahh yes that's right your listening to Skinny Puppy. I find out about this band whilst watching the film "the doom generation" (great film by the way) apparently some members of skinny puppy had a minor role in it.

Review of Ain't It Dead Yet - Skinny Puppy

Good Kids.... Turned Into Killers

Advantages: One of the best American horror movies of all time
Disadvantages: The film is little known

Strange Behaviour (AKA Dead Kids) takes you back to a time when horror was horror; during the 1980's horror was at its most creative. The early 80's were probably one of the best times for horror movies in the history of film making. For me when I think seriously about horror movies Strange Behaviour is one of the first movies I think of. Set in a small backwater town in Illinois, life appears to be a peaceful and serene experience. However a sinister underbelly is slowly being exposed; lots of people talk of events past and marry them up to events of the present. The peace and harmony we initially see is maybe not what we should be seeing. Pete Brady is a teenage boy with the usual teenage issues; the most important being lack of money. Pete wants to go to the big city to study and make something of himself; rather than ...
