All ‘90s Kids Have Shitty Taste in Music but It’s Not Our Fault

January 22, 2021 Syd Ghan 0

I loved being a kid in the ‘90s. It’s morphin’ time, am I right? Cowabunga! A Will Smith quote, probably. I have fond memories of going rollerblading without pads or a helmet. Of going to […]

Holy Shit Marilyn Manson’s New Song Is Actually Good

July 31, 2020 Syd Ghan 0

I haven’t cared about Marilyn Manson in a very long time. When I was a young edge lord, his music spoke to me in some pretty significant ways. Songs like “This is the New Shit”, […]

June 5, 2020 Syd Ghan 0

When N.W.A. released “Fuck Tha Police,” it scared the hell out of white people. Radio stations wouldn’t even touch it. It sparked protests. Some guy claiming to represent the entire FBI even wrote a letter […]

Stop Calling Other Artists Sellouts. They Don’t Need Your Petty Bullshit.

May 1, 2020 Syd Ghan 0

Do you hate it when that super heavy band you used to listen to becomes more accessible and all of a sudden more people want to listen to them? Does it drive you nuts when […]

August Burns Red – Guardians

April 13, 2020 Syd Ghan 0

6.5/10 There are a bunch of memes floating around the internet about how metalcore refuses to evolve as a genre. That’s not entirely fair. Avenged Sevenfold and Bring me the Horizon, for example, evolved right […]

Let’s Not Get it Twisted, St. Anger Still Sucks

April 10, 2020 Syd Ghan 1
