Children of Bodom drop some artwork, a name, and a track list. I can't help but be excited in at least some capacity.

Our month long celebration of all things grim and necro is back. All this month, we will be spotlighting black metal here on Metal Injection with articles on essential black metal listening, black metal related lists and some killer videos. To kick off our annual celebration we decided to enlist the help of designer Mike [...]

I went into this review with absolutely no knowledge of Vorum or any of their past work. Looking at the album cover, they could be anything from Nile-esque death metal, to Deathspell Omega-style Black Metal, or perhaps even something more progressive like The Ocean. And in a way, if you were to mix in flavors [...]

Fans of Marduk and Moonspell, get pumped. The two groups are teaming up for a North American tour in 2013 and they're bringing Inquisition, The Foreshadowing, and Death Wolf with them. Tour dates were just announced today, moments before I checked out for the year. Here's the routing:

Heavy Metal Underground is a new feature where columnist Alex Phillips will look to the unsigned bands, and pick out ones he feels deserve a spotlight shined on them. His debut column focues on a Saudi Arabian band, Al-Namrood. Since 2008 Al-Namrood, an oriental/black metal band almost unknown to the West, have self-produced an EP [...]

(Hence my delay in getting these tour reports [...]

We have all heard the legend that Per 'Dead' Ohlin's skull fragments were sent to various musicians by Euronymous shortly after Dead's suicide. Now, however, we have actual confirmation that this is actually 100% fact. Who confirmed this you ask? Well of course it's none other than Marduk's guitarist, Morgan ‘Evil’ Steinmeyer Håkansson! In a recent interview [...]

I was a bit overwhelmed by the staggering amount of big releases out this week; but it's true, the metal gods are just, and where there was a void of empty space last week there must now be a huge slab of metallic mayhem. I've pushed my review quota up from five to nine in [...]

Sweden’s Marduk has long been one of my favorite Black Metal acts. While they are rightly criticized for their overuse of blast-beats and other genre-specific tropes, their best work stands as some of the finest Black Metal produced. And though they have produced many many albums, some of which are difficult to distinguish from one [...]

Just a quick heads up, in case you missed the videos in the featured section above, since they've been coming in so quickly, here is a headcount of all the new music videos we posted so far this week: - CENSURA We Have To Hurry video premiere – 3 INCHES OF BLOOD Metal Woman video – [...]

Marduk are always a really fun band to see live. I love their incorporation of groove with classic black metal tendencies. Looks like I can get to see it live an in person very soon, as they have announced a pretty stellar tour with fellow satanists 1349, Withered and Weapon. All the raping and pillaging [...]
