Album of the Week: All That Remains – This Darkened Heart (2004)
The second studio album from All That Remains, This Darkened Heart, was released on March 23, 2004 (Prosthetic / Razor & Tie).

What’s going on Butcher Crew, it’s your Master Butcher, The Saw, and today we are going to talk about True Crime.

Ordering the Multiple Personalities: E. and The Saw
So, I have two differing dominant personalities – The Saw and Erika. When I was little the two were less pronounced or identifiable, but upon reflection of my thoughts and actions of the time, they were formulating and strengthening.

I would categorize the band as Death/Doom Metal, for the most part, with hook-riffs and some vocal components of Grindcore/Hardcore. … Continue reading Gatecreeper – An Unexpected Reality (2021)
