When I feel heavy metal

Advantages: Great coverage; lives up to its claims; fairly unique; metallic; long lasting
Disadvantages: A teeny bit pricey but worth it!

...depict the ?heavy metal? element which they are most similar to: ***Mercury: This is the one that I own which is a stunning metallic silver colour; ***Xenon: this is a blue metal, which when dry looks like a shimmery sky blue colour; ***Plutonium: quite an unusual shade, this is described as a silvery-rose taupe which basically is a shimmery beigey-pink with a silver hue to it. Quite iridescent I think. ***Palladium: a pale, metallic lilac colour; ***Kryptonite: no it isn?t green like the element in the Superman films but is instead an intensely metallic gold though is a softer gold as opposed to a bright gold. And now unfortunately is the drawback: there is of course a price to pay for a product which I would give the highly esteemed title of best eye shadow ever and that is £16. Yes, I know it is about four times as much as what...

Review of Urban Decay Liquid Metal Eyes

Powerful Hardcore Punk Purity

Advantages: An excellent album of energetic hardcore punk music
Disadvantages: The music may be a little too fast and heavy for some

.... 'Confidence and Consequence' is an excellent album from Too Pure To Die, a brilliant début offering which has here been supremely remastered. For all fans of hardcore and metal I'd definitely recommend the music of Too Pure To Die, there's a great energy about the music and something about the sound that this band produces which makes it all excellent to hear. Not one of these ten tracks disappoints, the final track on the album provides an interesting change and always the music enthrals. This album is a big and bold offering of hardcore, the guitar riffs provide a menacing metal presence and never does this band show and signs of slowing down throughout the albums half hour duration. The music is fast and fun, it will not appeal to all but it will certainly appeal to many; it's heavy enough to please hardened fans of the genre, but also...

Review of Confidence And Consequence - Too Pure To Die

A Great System from Sony

Advantages: Nice Classy Design, Great Graphics, and a Good Online
Disadvantages: Small Gamelist Thus Far and Some Games Suffer From Framerate and Graphical Pop-Up Issues

...Sony's Playstation 3 is thier third go around in the Video Game business. My console reviews usually consist of reviews in the following categories Controller, Graphics, Multiplayer/Online, and Game Library. Much like the Xbox 360, i'll also be reviewing the Design of the PS3. The design of the PS3 is the more classy of the three new consoles. The PS3 is a black square system with a curved top. While the design is beautiful, this system is very big, matching the 360 in terms of size. The system also offers Blu-ray but, in my opinion, that should not be the only reason you should be spending $400-500 on this system. The PS3's controller is the classic Playstation controller once again and that shouldn't be a problem for any gamer. The original PS3 controller was the Sixaxis but is now Dualshock 3. For a company that created...

  A Heavy Metal Visit to Ironbridge

Advantages: Beautiful Scenery, Historic building, good food, good pubs, educational and fun,
Disadvantages: None really

...them all but I have been to a few and enjoyed what we have eaten, there is an Italian restaurant which I have heard good things about. The pubs do tend to get quite busy at the weekends; well the young ones simply get a taxi and have the lovely time by the river and enjoy a drink in the quite few pubs which are within walking distance of each other. One of the most famous shops down here is the Merrythoughts Teddy Bear shop and museum, where you can buy yourself a famous Merrythoughts teddy bear, you can?t miss the shop as it has a 6ft Teddy bear dressed as a queen?s guard outside. The River Severn apparently is a great place to fish and you will find some fishermen sitting along its banks. There used to be a few little beach areas along the river edge but with the heavy amount of flooding and some corrosion, they have put big...

Review of Ironbridge, Shropshire

==Sony Have Done It Again!!==

Advantages: the most powerful console on the market, built in blu-ray player, internet capabilities, stylish
Disadvantages: none that i have yet found (owned for nearly 2 years)

...Let me start by saying, that despite the hefty rrp, despite the fact that its 3rd in the console race behind the nintendo wii and xbox 360 respectfully, the playstation 3 is in my honest opinion, the best out of the three without a doubt. When sony designed the playstation 3, it was intended to be a multimedia system that you could proudly place under your tv that dosn't look like it's ment to be in your teenagers bedroom and that they've comendeered your lcd tv because they can see more than they can on the portable in their room. i digress, they point i am trying to make is that this machine is as beautifull as it is powerful, and as practical as it is pricey (original rrp was £425) The playstation 3 is not just the best console (graphically nothing compares) it is also one of the best blu-ray players on the market and those...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Hammer Horror Meets Heavy Metal

Advantages: Fantastic vocals, excellent songwriting and execution, loads of atmosphere, great lyrics
Disadvantages: Vocals might be offputting to some

...Released way back in 1987, King Diamond's 'Abigail' is a concept album based around numerology and possession by spirits, no less, played in the NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) style. It comes across like a creepier, darker version of Iron Maiden, complete with rousing dynamic heavy metal riffs and some excellent melodic solos. Each song continues the album's narrative, which is a Hammer Horror style ghost-tale set in the 18th century complete with multiple characters each with their own lines. Both story and dialogue are voiced by vocalist King Diamond via a mix of rasped/growled narration and insanely high pitched, Bruce-Dickinson-with-hits-nuts-in-a-vice falsetto vocals, which soar above the music on each track. These are more extreme even that Rob Halford's efforts with Judas Priest, and likely won't appeal to everybody, but...

Review of Abigail [Remastered] - King Diamond

Heavy Metal the old-fashioned way

Advantages: Immensely playable, outstanding level-design and attention-to-detail, great use of humour, surprising amount of replay value
Disadvantages: Unbalanced learning curve, very frustrating at times, you'll hate it if you're retrophobic

...Metal Slug X is among the most delayed games ever to appear on the PlayStation format. Originally set for release in June 2002, fans had to wait an agonising 14 months of set-backs, development/publishing difficulties and unforeseen problems before it eventually received a UK release in early August of 2003. Still, it wasn’t all bad news; during the fourteen months that it was in limbo, the ‘small appreciation’ surrounding Metal Slug X had snowballed into a ‘large cult’ following, and unexpected chart success subsequently followed. Coincidently the most delayed PSOne game of all time, Heart Of Darkness, was similarly a 2D side-scroller, and would eventually hit the shops a staggering three years later than scheduled, but that’s another story. Still, better late than never as they say...

Review of Metal Slug X: Super Vehicle - 001 (PlayStation)

Sony is back with a bang!

Advantages: slick piece of hardware, great games, so much to do!
Disadvantages: not cheap!

...Having just recently won a competition to spend a night with the PS3 I figured it would be a smart idea to do a personal review of the console which everyone will be talking about (in the UK) in a few weeks to come. Please bear in mind that I have only had a chance to test this baby out for a few hours and so my review will not be as in-depth as you might expect. First Impressions The PS3 is indeed a slick looking machine, about the size of it's older brother (PS2) it seems as though finally Sony have caught on to the fact that the outer design of the console is as important to a gamer as the leather interior is to a 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Gone is that ugly block-like design and in comes a smooth surfaced console with curved edges just begging you to caress them. Much like it's predecessor, the PS3 can be placed...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Cyborgs, Huge Guns and Heavy Metal

Advantages: Hugely fun, gratifying and exciting gameplay, good graphics, amazing music
Disadvantages: Ludicrous gibbing spoils the atmosphere a little.

...satellites to gain security-clearence to new levels. Its all find-the-key-to-open-the-door stuff at the end of the day but it does help to create atmosphere and draw you in to the game's world. The graphics are quite crude by modern standars but still aesthetically pleasing, posessing a chunky charm that goes well with the utilitarian, heavily mechanised world of the Strogg. Quake 2 was one of the first games to take advantage of the sudden proliferation of 3D acceleration cards, and whilst it has been criticised for over-using browns and oranges, the overall effect is great, especially the lighting, with levels bathed alternately in neon-blues, emerald-greens and emergency-reds. The game's main appeal lies in its visceral, ultraviolent nature, with a series of superb, bombastic 'Rob Zombie' style heavy metal tracks keeping adrenaline...
