This past year had to be one of my hardest years deciding what was the best in music. I’m your typical music nerd, ask me my “Top 5″ anything and you’ll have a pretty fast response. But no, not 2011. No, 2011 without a doubt gave me a run for my money and in the best way possible. Now I know I haven’t posted anything in a while and that this list is, for lack of a better word, late, so consider this as my triumphant return. With that being said I present to you my “Best Of 2011″… enjoy! READ MORE

[Review] Chimp Spanner All Roads Lead Here EP

Paul Ortiz, a.k.a. Chimp Spanner, may be one of the most respected names in the djent community. And thanks to the recent rise in popularity of this genre, his work is reaching a wider audience with every passing moment. And it’s no wonder why. After all, by mixing djent-riffage with atmospheric electronic synth pads and technically fascinating guitar work, it’s music well worth checking out. But is that the case with his upcoming six track EP, All Roads Lead Here? Does this mixture work in creating a sonic landscape or does the final product come off as a cheesy mess?

One of my favorite bands from the last couple of years is England’s djent/prog-metal group TesseracT. Combining seriously heavy riffs with some rather beautiful textures, they hit pretty much hit the nail on the head for me. I loved their Concealing Fate EP (review), I loved their album One (review), and I enjoyed the hell out of seeing them live. So, it’s with great excitement that I write that the band is preparing to release an acoustic inspired EP this spring. This EP will feature new vocalist Elliot Coleman, who replaced Daniel Tompkins late last summer.

The band has also been confirmed for Day Three of Bamboozle Fest, where they will share the same stage as Incubus, Foo Fighters, Bon Jovi, Skrillex, and more. Day Three of the fest falls on May 20th, 2012. Snag your tickets here.

Finally, bassist Amos Williams has uploaded a video playthrough of the song April. Even though bass isn’t my principal instrument, it’s still a fascinating watch as he does some very clever things. Check it out below.

According to David Draiman‘s twitter, we’ll be seeing a Disturbed compilation album entitled The Lost Children before the end of the year. There haven’t been many more details apart from the title and the supposed release date, so keep your eyes locked here for more details as they emerge.

Also, if the cover of this compilation rips off The City Of Lost Children in any way, I’m going to be PISSED!
