ORCHID was named “the best and most important doom band of the past five years” by Rock Hard Germany’s editor-in-chief Götz Kühnemund. In addition, BEHEMOTH mainman Adam “Nergal” Darski stated: “BLACK SABBATH should do an album like ‘The Mouths Of Madness’!”

Orange Goblin, one of the cornerstones of current British Heavy Metal, are back with new album ‘Back From The Abyss’ which is one of CackBlabbath’s more highly anticipated releases of 2014; to put it mildly! ‘Back From The Abyss’ may be the title but Orange Goblin are returning off the back of the awesome ‘Eulogy For The Damned’ album and it’s star studded touring activities. Supporting Down, Clutch and Airbourne, amongst others, doesn’t exactly sound like the deep dark recesses of Hell. In fact, we were there to see most of these tours and they were fookin’ brilliant.

Pianist Steve Kuhn, accompanied by David Finck and Billy Drummond, explore classical works by a number of top composers from the 19th and 20th centuries on this Japanese release, though they are used as a launching pad for improvisation. Maurice Ravel's "Pavane for a Dead Princess" is recast as a soft samba, also incorporating a bit of an earlier standard that was derived from the French Impressionist's piece, "The Lamp Is Low." Chopin is obviously one of Kuhn's favorite classical composers, as three of his features, highlighted by a dreamy setting of "Nocturne in E Flat Major, Op. 9, No. 2." He brightens the tempo of Claude Debussy's "Reverie" while retaining its lyricism, while slowing Johannes Brahms' "Lullaby" to a crawl and demonstrating how a master jazz pianist utilizes space as an element of improvisation.

It's a daunting task to record a tribute album to a legend like Peggy Lee, if for no other reason than every song will be compared to the original, but Minneapolis-based Connie Evingson does it, and does it well. While she uses similar arrangements, she doesn't try to sound like Lee. Her voice is deep and sultry like Lee's, but it's also somewhat lighter. To her credit, Evingson's tribute is not only to songs that Lee sang, but to those she wrote, reminding us that the multitalented Ms. Lee was also a composer of some note…
