This album is not groundbreaking. This album brings nothing new to the table. This album is a cliched massacre, which is part of the reason why metalcore/post-hardcore is looked down upon by most metalheads.]]> Compact Discs Fri, 24 May 2013 04:58:10 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/compact_discs/cattle_decapitation/karmabloodykarma/index.html Released: Jul 11, 2006

"Tomorrow's Lost" and the accompanying tour have confirmed my belief that Cauldron is the best band to form in the past ten years.]]> Compact Discs Thu, 23 May 2013 04:51:15 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/ibanez/grx22/index.html Electric Guitars Thu, 23 May 2013 04:36:13 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/dean/avalanche_model_t/index.html Electric Guitars Thu, 23 May 2013 03:29:32 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/acoustic_guitars/tanglewood/tw47_e/index.html Acoustic Guitars Thu, 23 May 2013 03:13:51 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/compact_discs/queens_of_the_stone_age/like_clockwork/index.html Released: Jun 3, 2013

Once again, Airbourne deliver a righteous collection of '80s style rock and roll songs that'll leave you singing along to the choruses by the second listen.]]> Compact Discs Tue, 21 May 2013 04:44:43 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/esp/ltd_m-17/index.html Electric Guitars Tue, 21 May 2013 03:42:12 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/guitar_effects/boss/sl-20_slicer/index.html Guitar Effects Tue, 21 May 2013 03:22:40 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/compact_discs/tesseract/altered_state/index.html Released: May 27, 2013

Most comeback albums are either radical departures or mere rehashings of past glories; on "m b v", My Bloody Valentine work between these two extremes to sound like they never went on an indefinite recording hiatus.]]> Compact Discs Thu, 14 Feb 2013 06:34:46 -0500 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/epiphone/les_paul_standard_plustop_pro/index.html Electric Guitars Fri, 04 Jan 2013 03:17:51 -0500 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/squier/standard_telecaster/index.html Electric Guitars Fri, 20 Apr 2012 07:09:47 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/dbz_guitars/venom/index.html Electric Guitars Fri, 27 Jan 2012 03:33:58 -0500 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/harley_benton/hbl450/index.html Electric Guitars Thu, 10 Jun 2010 09:11:17 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/pickups/seymour_duncan/ahb-3_mick_thomson_emty/index.html Pickups Wed, 02 Jun 2010 03:37:06 -0400 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/acoustic_guitars/yamaha/fg-730s/index.html Acoustic Guitars Thu, 18 Jan 2007 04:27:56 -0500 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/electric_guitars/ibanez/rg1527/index.html Electric Guitars Fri, 11 Nov 2005 01:39:12 -0500 http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/guitar_amplifiers/peavey/classic_30/index.html Guitar Amplifiers Tue, 04 Oct 2005 00:26:53 -0400
