New Review Update: Self Defense Family; Black Tusk

Happy Tuesday, everyone. Can we stop talking about Miley twerking yet?

We've posted some new reviews. First, reader Lysdexia talks about the new EP from Self Defense Family,
The Corrections Officer In Me:

"It's Not Good For The Man To Be Alone," is a song that starts with a description of what you're about to listen to and then a guitar line that punches you in the gut repeatedly for three and a half minutes. For a band that live halfway across the country from each other at times, it's implausible to hear them sound this tight yet they are.

Then, Joe Pelone takes a hard and heavy look at the latest EP from Black Tusk,
Tend No Wounds:

The EP's brevity plays to Black Tusk's strengths, as this sludge metal outfit has always had a hardcore sensibility. Limited to six songs, Tend No Wounds cohesively acts like a mini-LP, complete with intro and outro tracks.
