Today I’m going to write about a genre that I don’t listen to very often, and my last real experiences with it were about twelve years ago with The Marshall Mathers LP. If you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m talking about hip hop…more specifically the second album, Because The Internet, by the American …

Malevolence – Reign Of Suffering
The following review will be quite concise on purpose, since the sound of Malevolence is hard to describe and best enjoyed by simply listening to it. Nevertheless I will try to whet your appetite a bit for their debut album Reign Of Suffering! The sound of the five blokes from Sheffield can best be described …
Rufus Ready – Rufus Ready
It’s about time we got in a review of a national band in the new year, even though technically it dates from mid-July 2013…but better late than never. Rufus Ready is a duo that, with the help of their “imaginary friends”, recorded their eight song strong self-titled debut. They categorize themselves as folk rock and …
The Animal In Me – Who’s Laughing Now
I always try to keep up with new bands and therefor I am subscribed to a channel on YouTube that regularly puts up new videos by newcomers. That’s how I came across The Animal In Me and their song End Of The Road. One thing upfront: after listening to that one song, they managed to …

If someone had told me ten years ago that one day Snoop Dogg would change his name and do reggae, I’d have laughed out loud…but it happened.

Sianvar – Sianvar EP
Initially, my plan was to review the handful of albums that I didn’t get to do last year, either because they came out too late or due to me simply missing their release. However, I did stumble over this little gem which marks a great start into 2014, since it was released on January 5th! …
Top 5 2013 by Yannick
2013 has been a very busy and rewarding year for me…especially in the music department. It’s been my first full year at El Gore and I managed to put out forty-seven reviews, which I’m a bit proud of to be honest, since I absolutely love doing what I do. But since the year is almost …
Kill The Innocent – Ayahuasca
This is going to be my last review of the year 2013, and I’m happy to say right off the bat that I’m ending it on a very high note, because the first EP Ayahuasca by the relatively new Luxembourgish band Kill The Innocent is quite a tasty experience. So let’s dive right into it! …
Five Finger Death Punch – The Wrong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell
At the end of July Five Finger Death Punch released the first part of their double album, The Wrong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell, and in November the second part followed, so I figured I’d review them both at the same time to decide whether it was worth being split in …

We’ve all seen them…the living leather handbags that usually tend to smoke a lot and sit all day in a pub, after their visit at the tanning salon…they now have an anthem. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jRc3BMhE5c]
