I put together a real dinky system to make all you people happy...I know you hate reading boring para- graphs that have absolutely no value whatsoever. So check out the little chart below, and read on for my music review. Enjoy, and remember, I never said any of this stuff was current. In fact, this one will be full of some old goodies. MuSTaiNe's MuSiC SCaLe 0) SuCKS!!! ооо Get the picture? ооо 1) BiTeS!!! 2) eWW!!! 3) CRaP!!! 4) BLaH, BLaH... 5) NoT HaLF BaD, BuT CRaP.. 6) GeTTiN' THeRe!!! 7) KeWL..SoRTa 8) Yo!

BaND #1 : Name : STaBBiNG WeSTWaRD Members : David Suycott (DRuMS,PeRCuSSioN) Jim Sellers (BaSS) Walter Flakus (KeYBoaRDS) Christopher Hall (VoCaLS, KeYBoaRDS) Stuart Zechman (GuiTaRS, BaSS) Album : uNGoD Info. : These guys are like an industrial / metal band that totally rip! I first heard them when Raven stuck a CD in my car, and loved em ever since. My favorite songs by them are : Control, Lies, and Violent Mood Swings. The rest of the CD is pretty awesome too. Anyways, this one gets a 10+, and if anyone had checked them out and disagrees...well, you suck monkey dick and if you are on AA, I will PERSONALLY kill your access. As far as metal industrial goes, this band is gonna rock in the future. They have that college grundge sound, with that cutting edge metal and keyboard jazz thrown in. BaND #2 : Name : PRoNG Members : Are you kidding? They suck SO bad that their names aren't even printed on the damn CD of their most recent release, Cleansing. Album : Duh....Like read above. Info. : CRAP! 0, 0, and MORE 0. These guys might have been kewl once, but I was never around for that. I heard their song, Snap Your Fingers, Snap your Neck, and I swear, it was like Pantera with a different name. The song was pretty neat, for death metal crap, but the whole tape sounds the same. It's not like Pantera or Selpultura(sp?) that occasionaly throw in a ballad here and there. IT's crap. The only songs on this album that one would possibly might want to listen to would be track's 3, and 5, those being Snap your fingers...and Broken Peace. Don't buy this tape. It sucks. I hate it. I could have spent 11 dollars on something much more interesting....like a dozen or so pop tarts. BaND #3 : Name : DReaM THeaTeR Members : James LaBrie (LeaD aND BaCKGRouND VoCaLS) Kevin Moore (KeYBoaRDS) John Myung (BaSS) John Pettrucci (GuiTaRS) Mike Portnoy (DRuMS aND PeRCuSSioN) Album : Images and Words Info : 10. Period. They rule. Techno Metal at it's finest. You have your hard core metal-techno stuff on tracks 1,3,5,6, and 8. The other tracks are awesome ballads. Hit songs include Pull Me Under, Take The Time, and Learning To Live. Buy their CD. I did. Well that's it for this zine. Next time I'll do another 3-4 bands. And if you bozos haven't figured it out yet...NO they're not all current releases. See ya next time.
