Album Review: Mass Worship – Mass Worship

Mass Worship are a comparatively new band hailing from the fine land of Sweden. With the country being a breeding ground for death metal and being signed to Century media after only existing for such a short time, one could argue that the band has a lot to prove.

Album Review: Alter Bridge – Walk the Sky

Alter Bridge’s previous album, The Last Hero, had the deck stacked against it from the start. How do you follow an album so perfect as Fortress? Simple answer: you can’t.

Buried Memories is a collection of remixes and (I think) original … Continue reading EP Review: Sons of Alpha Centauri – Buried Memories

Album Review: Sick Joy – Them Days

A couple of years ago at the Camden Rock Festival, a few Moshville Times colleagues and I attended. One comrade mentioned an EP she reviewed by Brighton trio Sick Joy, and encouraged us that these guys should be the band we start the day off with at this all-day musical festival. I went along, as … Continue reading Album Review: Sick Joy – Them Days
