Razor To Oblivion (Southern Lord). Review by Matthew Moyer.

Too young to be fully cognizant of the more embarrassing excesses of Gothic music over the past twenty years, the young Turks of NYC’s own Blacklist are, perhaps unwittingly, the best hope of redeeming Goth-metal. Fresh from a European tour complete with horned hotel antics, Blacklist frontman and provocateur Josh Strawn told Ink 19 all about how he learned to stop worrying and love Motorhead and Scott Walker equally.

Bill Hale’s slick photo collection reminds haters and fans alike of Metallica’s glory days. Even Matthew Moyer admires the redemption.

Reno Divorce has called Denver home for over a decade, but their roots in the Orlando punk scene of the ’90s are not forgotten. Their recent Orlando gig is a homecoming for the band, their family, and friends, and for long-time fan, Jen Cray.

The Sword recently gave Orlando fans, including Jen Cray , a celebratory night of no-nonsense heavy metal.
