The Obsessed - The Church Within (1994: Sony)

Doomlord slogs along,
adds heft beat per soul-torn beat;
trudge the Sab-sludge forth

Prong - Cleansing (1994: Epic)

Buzzin' crunch riff fest
hints dance floor, wallops throughout;
raucous, angry fun.

Archeon - End of the Weakness (2005: Empire/Metal Mind)

Neo-class Bodom
shreds it out, riffs a mighty;
ignored gem needs spins.

Dillinger Escape Plan - Miss Machine (2004: Relapse)

No skimp chaos done
Bungle(d), scream-o(ed), and jazzcored;
listens as punchbag.

Dimmu Borgir - Godless Savage Garden (1998: Nuclear Blast)

Stopgap sustains buzz
for emerging black symph horde;

madfans more to buy.

Dragonslayer - Noches de Tormenta (2001: Days End)

"Who needs key" warbles
thwart by-the-books power play;

no
más para mi

Welcome to SmokeyB's Haiku Reviews

I'm a former music reviewer trying to return to the realms, but with a small twist - I'm mandating a word/syllable count and trying to put everything into a haiku-esque form. See the "Welcome to SmokeyB's Haiku Review!" post in the October 2009 area of the archive for more info.
