“Although the Nail lineup consists of veterans of internationally successful recording/touring acts, the group is currently unsigned and remains independently managed. NAIL official website is www.nailband.com” (source:nailband.com) Can somebody please tell me why this amazing Canadian progressive heavy rock/metal band is still unsigned??

Bubba Ho-tep
I have been looking for Bubba Ho-tep (2002) for some years now but I, somehow, always kept on procrastinating which may be due to the fact that I do not enjoy horror comedies and that I am not a big Bruce Campbell fan. As already mentioned, Bubba Ho-tep is an American horror-comedy. It was co-written […]
Anna’s Top 5 Albums for Autumn
Reviewing music is not my job around here, nor my forte in general, but today I want to write about records regardless. With all due respect to the aficionados, I’m getting a little fed up with all the post-hardcore/metalcore, and since I feel that my taste differs pretty substantially from the others, I figured I’d […]
Tonight Alive – The Other Side
It’s time that I come clean about something I do not deny when asked about, but that I don’t usually say out loud: I’m a sucker for pop punk with female lead singers. It all started in 2002 when Avril Lavigne released her debut album and since then I, almost religiously, check out everything that […]
Mambo – Bertier
It’s finally time to review some mathrock extravaganza, this time introducing the 4 piece band Mambo from Belgium with their first LP Bertier. They recently played a show in town with Mutiny on the bounty and Dirty Crows and we were lucky enough to get an early insight into their debut. The style is something […]
Trash Monday LXXXVI
Not sure if Cruel Addict is a legitimate artist or a troll. Either way, I would have felt greedy keeping this one to myself. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz8lnSjOaj0]
Calvaire
Calvaire (also known as The Ordeal) doesn’t sound like a noteworthy cinematic experience if you whittle it down to a simple description. A few days before Christmas, a man finds himself stuck in a remote woods area with his broken down van and gets a room for the night at an isolated inn. Sounds familiar, right? It’s […]
Kitshickers – Horror Vacui
There’s probably no better way to celebrate a 15th band anniversary than with the release of a new album, in this case: Kitshickers‘ new longplayer Horror Vacui featuring 20 new tracks with lots of guest appearances and cryptic song titles. I remember the first time I heard this band was more than 10 years ago, when we […]
Pink Frost – Sundowning
The sun goes down and Mr. Shoegaze meets Mr. Grunge who both decide to do a jolly pub tour until the early morning. Ruins sounds like a collaboration between The Smashing Pumpkins and Torche with its grungy guitar and amiable but in the same time sneaky rhythm that knocks you out of your socks when […]
