Everyone could use a little experience, but double is even better! That's what has drawn me time and time again to the Canadian duo who call themselves Double Experience, a band who embraces its nerdy side and has built a following with songs about g ...
‘For The Demented’ by Annihilator
Canada’s thrash mastermind, Jeff Waters, is back again with Annihilator’s 16th studio album, For The Demented. Without attempting to imitate past work, but with a desire to recapture the “thrash-meets-melody” aspect that die-hard Annihilator fans lo ...
CD Review: “Spüken” by Ninjaspy
Before I even knew their name, I found myself dumbfounded and adoring that Vancouver threesome known as Ninjaspy. By mere happenstance, I witnessed them in concert and reveled at the tumultuous exhibition. Here were three men, producing a mo ...

Interview: Jeff Waters of Annihilator (1/3)

EP Review: ‘Gone Too Long’ by Milo McMahon
Fuzztones and 50s twang are prominent features of Milo McMahon’s latest EP Gone Too Long. Weighing in at only three songs, this release is just enough to tease your appetite and take you back to the meal line saying “Please sir, may I have some more ...
