L.A.-based Evildead was the thrash metal band founded by former Agent Steel guitarist Juan Garcia, following that group's apparent breakup in 1987. Alongside vocalist Phil Flores, guitarist Albert Gonzalez, bassist Mel Sanchez (previously his bandmate with Abattoir), and drummer Rob Alaniz, he signed with Germany's Steamhammer label, and by the close of 1989 they had released both an EP (entitled Rise Above) and a full album (optimistically named Annihilation of Civilization) of particularly brutal thrash metal…

This is the third full-length album from Metalucifer, a Japanese band playing – you guessed it! – heavy metal…

' Once Bill Laswell's Axiom was a subdivision of Island Records. After Island was sold by Chris Blackwell - the bright teeth guy who went around earth in a balloon and nowadays sells space hops - to Polygram in 1989, AXIOM had to close down (it was not enough commercially interesting and too much "experimental" for Universal), even if more than 20 records had been released and that some of them sold well (Praxis) or had been highly awarded (Sonny Sharrock, Henry Threadgill) by jazz magazines. With Blackwell's desire to move away from music and more into the motion picture realm, Axiom has effectively shuttered operations. Attempts to buy the back catalog from Island/Universal have so far yielded no results.' editorial.review@discogs.com

Jessie J’s sixth studio album Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time - her first in nearly eight years - is a bold kaleidoscope of emotions, capturing the raw highs and lows of the last decade. Recorded over the past five years in Los Angeles, the album is emotional, unfiltered, and unapologetic, it’s music that wears its heart on its sleeve and demands to be felt at full volume. Working with a close-knit group of collaborators, Jessie J teams up with Ryan Tedder (One Republic, Beyonce, Adele), Jesse Boykins III, Los Hendrix (SZA, Brent Faiyaz), Marty Maro (John Legend, Anitta) and more, to create a body of work that effortlessly blends old-skool alt-R&B, upfront pop, and contemporary R&B.
