• Terror - Lowest of the Low

  A riff catches your ear, a lyric that you'll remember, a double bass that hits you in just the right spot. It feels familiar. It's a good feeling. And you rock out. Terror is one of those bands.

• Watashi Wa - The Love Of Life

  When I opened a package from Tooth & Nail and saw the name Watashi Wa staring up at me, I didn't even want to listen to the CD, much less review it. But I popped it in my car CD player on the way to work this morning, and I found my mouth hanging open. This CD is really GOOD.
