Rolling Stone Magazine describes GODSMACK as “hard as nails and cranked to eleven,” while Alternative Press praised the band for its “churning, riff-driven hybrid of all that is heavy, past and present.”
Godsmack Mini-bio:
American Heavy Metal band, formed in 1995 in Boston Massachusetts. After playing the Drums for 23 years including 2 in the band Strip Mind (defunct) Sully Erna founded Godsmack in February of '95, originally under the name of The Scam with the line-up of Robbie Merrrill on bass, Lee Richards on Guitar & Tommy Stewart on Drums. The Scam quickly changed to Godsmack after one demo.
The Name of the band some have a conflicting opinion on. Robbie Merrill in the 'Smack This! home video said it came from the Alice in Chains song "God Smack" Sully Erna back in 1999 was making fun of someone that had a cold sore on his lip & the next day he had one himself & someone said "Its a godsmack" & the name stuck. (&That' the one I go by)
2010 Godsmack have their fifth album "the Oracle' ready to rock. So far I'm love the track Whiskey hangover. Plus War & Peace & the Rhythmic 'Devil's Swing which well makes me want to dance! Sully seems to be mad again & to me that's when the albums sound best.
Latest ALBUM "ORACLE" In its first week oracle sold 117,000 Debuting at Number 1 on the Billboard Top 200! It is the Band's third consecutive release of an album debuting at number 1. Folowing Faceless and lV in 2003 & 2006, and on iTunes, it realeased with and excess of 23,000 digital copies.

 "My love for the genre (Horror) far exceeds my modest collection of horror films, but I'm sure that if it is a movie that has made (or will make) my collection, it must have that something that makes the mind take the undeniable journey to the darkest and most uncomfortable place in the human psyche - fear.
