Hellborne - Gig Review - Hellborne - Bar Mode, Palmerston North, 6 October 07
16 Oct 2007 // A review by CEOMong
Another fine performance from Pastor Sin and the guys – Hellborne never fail to amaze me, and this gig was certainly no exception.
Rage and power were radiated in an intense set that blew both my and Wifey’s minds. Treated to a new song which was very hot, a little less growl than usual, but coupled with a tricky new riff which gave the song a nice original tang. Awesome shit!
The swamp peon chorus got in and showed their love nice and early, rocking out as hard as they could to the tight aggressive sounds of a mint selection of classics.
Hellborne’s stage presence is unreal, larger than life, and so very powerful. See them live whenever you can – don’t miss out, you will kick yourself later. And not in the good way.

fleaBITE - Album Review: The Jungle is Jumping
21 Jan 2015 // by CEOMong
This is one kid’s CD that is unlike any other I’ve heard – The Wiggles they aren’t, unique they are, that’s for sure! My subject matter experts for this album are my wee girls Liz, 7, and Jen, 4½ - after repeated listens I asked them for their opinions on each track … with mixed results … and accompanying their comments are my thoughts.

Shihad - FVEY Album Review
20 Aug 2014 // by CEOMong
I don’t know if it’s all in my head or not, but Jaz Coleman’s influence lends a certain classic element and a brooding depth to this album that breaks away from what has become, in recent times, some would say too radio-friendly jams. There’s a satisfying depth to the album the louder it gets – when isn’t that true for Shihad though, I suppose?

Mint physical release, a damned fine example of the post-CD era! I’ll admit up-front that even after several listens I couldn’t quite gel with this album ...

As first experiences go, this was pretty epic. I’d never seen HLAH before live, and honestly had no idea what to expect.

Bloodsport – Blackest Darkness Album Review
14 Aug 2012 // by CEOMong
Short (sub 2 minute for the most part) grunty songs, strong consistent themes and imagery, all in all a very solid offering. At times predictable but also, therefore, reliable.

Delicate intro, rolls into a picky soft hook. Nice vox harmonies throughout.

Sinate - To The Death Album Review
14 Mar 2012 // by CEOMong
Damn I’m impressed, this is one cool album – especially as loud as I have it right now. I consider myself lucky to have the privilege to hear something like this, and it’s from Kiwis!
