 Encyclopaedia Metallum - Reviews for Nuclear Assault - The Plague
The title track “The Plague” is a nice song that starts with a nice acoustic part and then a mid paced riff kicks in, there’s a good mid-break section featuring some acoustic guitar parts followed by an average melodic solo and the song ends in a nifty mid tempo mood.
The title song, The Plague starts off really nice with an acoustic part, but it's to slow in the main part in my opinion.
After the release of “Game Over” the band decided to release this EP which while not as impressive as their debut album is a nice little collection of funny and thrashy songs.

 Wonderboy : Wonderboy - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
The other primary flaw is the inconsistent set of songs that Rist wrote for the album, something that would plague both the first two albums.
The first Wonderboy album is a solid representation of one of the most loved combos on the Los Angeles underground pop scene of the early '90s.
Wonderboy is only partly satisfying, but then a partly satisfying Wonderboy album is better than no Wonderboy at all.

 Threepenny: Marcus, Stories of a Bad Song
It became clear that, beyond new wars, what has kept the song alive is its melody, and its vehemence: that final "I hope that you die." It's the elegance of the melody and the extremism of the words that attract people—the way the song does go too far, to the limits of free speech.
They made a storm; they took the song's rage into the realm of abstraction, until the end, when there was nothing left but drum taps, silence, and a single voice, letting you imagine that this was all that was left, after the war.
That put a chill on the melody, gave him an opening into the bad dream he was after: shadowed, doomstruck, the sound of funeral procession, or a line of flagellants in the plague years.

 The Locust: Plague Soundscapes: Pitchfork Review
Throughout Plague Soundscapes there's lots of high-end scratching, romping double-bassdrum (the opening of "Solar Panel Ass" is as heavy as Slayer), faux-explosions, more than a dozen non-standard noisemakers, claustrophobic keyboard blasts of bodily fluids and dislodged earwax, and vocalist/bassist Justin Pearson's incessant snarl-- all expansive while remaining aesthetically lodged within the confines of hardcore.
Whatever the theme, Plague Soundscapes is among the band's fiercest work yet, and stands as their most sinisterly melodic to date.
Obviously, The Locust aren't singularly reinventing music, but it could be said that Plague Soundscapes is, along with a handful of similarly minded bands, redefining hardcore, and with a modicum of pretentiousness.

 ....:::My Plague - Song Interpretations:::....
That they hate how people are just molds of each other and only think for themselves, and that they just don't give a shit about other people anymore.
It is a guy who is sick of the people around, and feels worthless cause no one care about him and would be better off killing himself and never of been known, but it's not like anyone would care if he died.
Much like People=Shit the hate and rage of the guy is represented by intense guitar riffs and drumming.

 New Gibraltar Encyclopedia of Progressive Rock FA-FL
Deborah Perry (of Thinking Plague fame) graces a few of the songs, but I feel she should have been more central than she is, being such a great vocalist.
The title song is a 7/4 vamp around guitar picks and trumpet blasts in a maelstrom of electronic swooshes which leads in to the chilling "Mamie Is Blue", with dramatic, thunderous electronic effects.
All the "metallic" songs consist of diverse, thrashing or 'simply' heavy guitars riffs, blistering and slow, but always delicate, electric guitar solos, rich and varied arrangements of keyboards, wonderful passages of semi-acoustic guitar and a tight and very precise work of the rhythm-section.

 LYRiCS >> SoNg inFo - pt.2 (Revolution:Revolution)
We wrote this song in the living room of the second ‘locust mansion’ (the one that you see on the enhanced CD of the Plague album).
So we wrote it as a ‘fight’ song in the disguise of a ‘party’ song (‘and all the party people threw all their hands up’).
There is a part where I say ‘they hit up my playground’ that was supposed to be enhanced by a sample from the ‘Playground’ song that Another Bad Creation did back in the day.

But if you need a break from the mainstream, (and by break I mean going on a blood-drenched virtual murdering spree in some 60's sci-fi movie) then "Plague Soundscapes" is the musical disease for you.
With an array of song titles like "Captain Gaydar Turn On Your Radar" and "Halo Of Pubic Hair And Earwax Manufactured For The Champion In All Of Us", the band clearly show that they aren't going to settle down or mature anytime soon.
As such, "Plague Soundscapes" is a spastic blast of violently perforated aural madness.

i love that track, i thought it was different than plague soundscapes and had less guitar but it was as good as all the rest of their stuff.
It took me some listens to get into plague soundscapes, and the new ep just sounds like more of the same, but less of the gituar riffs that i found in plague to hold on to.
I mean fuck, i love you guys and i am probably going to see you in cincy with the fantomas just because i like to, but i dont want to let go of my favorite band, and if the whole song is like that then poop.

At just under twenty-one minutes, the 23 songs on Plague Soundscapes fire like rapid shots from a laser pistol.
Pulverizing, rather than soothing the listener, is the band's modus operandi, and if one makes it to Plague Soundscapes conclusion, they should receive a medal of honor (or bravery?
Even more absurd than the sounds of The Locust are the song titles chosen to accompany them.

 Pissing Razors - Cast Down The Plague review
Dare you to find a song this fast on their last album.
It's almost as if a band member said, "Hey wait, this guy is good, let's bring him into the fun," and I do use the word fun because that's what this album is. Fun to listen to and fun to play (although the same "This sounds too much like Pantera" argument will come up).
The sophomore release from this band that completely blows away their last release (Pissing Razors) by at least a grade and change on the skin-split-o-meter gauge.

 Album Reviews
First, the album is chock full of thoroughly metal songs, just like they used to make 'em in the 80s, all played with extreme skill and conviction.
The album begins with a somewhat noisy, ambient intro called "All Hail the Wyverns," which leads directly into "Horns of War." This song moves all over from speedy, blackened riffs with guttural vocals to more melodic moments accompanied by Rasa's beautiful soprano.
The relentless "Search For Trust 1 and 2" is one of my favorite cuts on the album, reminding me a bit of a mix of old Klinik, old Delerium and really old Tangerine Dream.

 Album Reviews - Archive 1
The album opens up with an electronic voice saying "this is your world" then it procedes to a rather straightforward song with quite a bit of distortion through out.
She has left the pseudo-industrialists to release this rather groovy album of 11 songs.
This album is a tad bit short, only eight songs, to be priced as an LP, but if you are a fan of Gitane Demone or even if you are a fan of Rozz Williams, don't let this slip by.

 Album Reviews - Archive 3
It features one song from their first album, albeit remixed, and two songs from the new album.
Perhaps this album owes a lot to that Autechre single that contained "no repetitious beats" (to protest London's anti-rave law that forbade public playing of music consisting of repetitious beats)--there are no looped drum machine patterns on the whole disc.
You probably were not expecting this review, but growing up the Go Go's were essential to my musical development, so I thought this wouldn't be a bad album to me to review.

The Plague Dogs was interesting and realistic, but not for the faint of heart or those who can’t face life or animal experimentation.
The opening, accompanied by the song, “Time and Tide” and the distant mournful howls of dogs in a research station, fully takes off as a depressing film.
ROWF - Rowf is the first dog seen in the movie, swimming in a water-filled tank for timed physical endurance experimentation (or survival expectation conditioning) at the research laboratory.

 DVD Times - Watership Down: 25th Anniversary Edition
Bright Eyes loop - This allows you to practice driving yourself insane by playing the Art Gurfunkel song from the film (together with the accompanying animation) on an infinite loop.
The film, due to length, also misses out so many character scenes (it has the rats, but that was just a brief action fix) and lacks the 'epic' feel the LP reading gives it.
The film can easily be read as a political allegory, with the various different warrens represting different forms of government (what these different forms are is open to audience interpretation).
