Here's a couple album reviews I did:
Prophet X & Old Owl - Ragnarok
Gouki Productions 2009
So the Owl found himself travelling the ancient lands of Norse mythology only to combine forces with the one known as Prophet X and within the sort time they travelled they produced a marvalous display of craftsmanship.
here for free download is the works Prophet X & Old Owl have constructed.

-- Old Owl's blog from Myspace.
I've listened to quite a few free releases, and this is one of my favorite. I chose to show the excert of the blog first because he described much better
than anything I could come with. If you enjoy mythology, horrorcore, or underground hiphop, I would urge you to take the time to download it, Every track
has ir's on tale or story behind it, and top notch production all the way through. Some of my favorites would be Quarantined, Heaven From Hell, and Battle
Roayale(featuring O.N.E. of Ironstar music).
I've been hooked on Old Owl since I first heard a track by him called "Hyrule". which is an ode to The Legend of Zelda video game series. Since then, I've
made a point to check out everything by him, from his Star Wars themed tracks, to the epic tale that is the Prophecies series. He remains one of my favorite
producers, rappers, and storytellers. Prophet X on the other hand is new to me, he was excellent as well on the album, he's got great vocals that seem to
invoke emotion very well, which adds a deeper feel to the tracks. I'm definitely going to keep an ear on him, and hope to hear these two do more
collabrations in the future.
All in all the album gets a lot of play time from me, and in my opinion it's excellent front to back. I don't know if I'd call it horrorcore. but I think
fans of horrorcore would enjoy this.
Monsta Squad's debut LP "Grindhouse Hip Hop" is definitely one of the best horrorcore albums released this year. Monsta Squad consists
of Mr. Kiltcha & Juz-10, long time rappers of 3rd Shift Entertainment. Both are at they're very best on this album. The album is meant to be a tribute to
all things horror, and they did just that perfectly. It's very hard for me to pick a favorite track, the entire album is pure gold. Each track is
accompanied by an intro setting the mood for each track, and they did them very well. From The Beauty & The Violence to Horror Holocaust this is the grittiest
and bloodest experience. A few of my favorite tracks are I've Gonde Mad which features Darkhalf of LSP. I definitely hope to see these guys do more collabs in the future.
How The Gods Kill, Don't Know what it is.
