Into Darkness (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.

Songs of Torment, Songs of Joy (Candlelight Records). Review by Matthew Moyer.

Take Matthew Moyer’s advice - When the singer in a doom metal band is wearing priest’s vestments and rolling his eyes in the back of his head, you know you’re in for a quality concert. Solitude Aeternus brings the celluloid goods.
