I figured I'd be in for some weird and different sounding metal with Zweizz when I first looked at the cover of The Yawn Of A New Age, which is just a black metal-looking logo

.in pink. Zweizz, real name Svein Egil Hatlevik, was also a member of Dodheimsgard, a rather off-beat, avant-garde black metal band from Norway, so that also gave me some hope. Imagine my surprise when the music started and it wasn't metal at all, just some electronic/techno/noise what-have-you. I'm not an authority at all on those genres because I really never listen to that type of stuff; all I know is I don't like this album. It's not my thing. It's boring. And I'll never listen to it again. If you're more open-minded than me, go check out Zweizz. Maybe you'll get it. I don't.

When Horror dropped last year, it was well worth the privileged price of entering the collected world of The Mekons. I was lucky enough to find their first LP—"The Quality Of Mercy Is Not Strnen"—in a thrift store many blood moons ago. This began my foray into the ever-changing world of The Mekons and their many ever-changing forays into the … Read more
