Just the name Grime is about all you need to take away to get an idea of whether you'll like their material or not. Add in that their latest album is entitled Deteriorate with a rotting, skinless corpse on the front cover and you have a band perfectly personified within the artwork. So if you're [...]

Dave Ingram, who's best known as the dude who replaced Barney Greenway in Benediction when Greenway decided to front Napalm Death full time and who sang on one Bolt Thrower album but then had to quit due to health issues, has formed a new band with Rogga Johansson, who's handled guitar duties for Paganizer, The Grotesquery, and the fantastically named, Fondlecorpse. The new band is [...]

Watain announce their fifth record to be The Wild Hunt and set the release date to be August 19 in Europe and August 20 in the USA. Hooray black metal!

Finishing up this episode while recovering from the amazing convention known as Penguicon which happened this weekend. One of the highlights was one of the staff members dressed in corpse-paint and a hula skirt behind a Tiki bar. That's pretty unconventional, but what's even more unconventional (outside of being, well, outside of the convention) is [...]

Tim Lambesis (As I Lay Dying, Austrian Death Machine) now fronts up a solid death metal act called Pyrithion. He has also had some accusations that his new music is satanic.

Each week on ‘Throwback Thursday’ we dust off a crucial but underrated album, without which heavy metal’s evolution would have turned out quite differently. This week we head to 1980s South America, when and where fledgling Brazilian metal bands like Vulcano channeled all of their third world misery into some of the most vicious and [...]

I just got way more excited for the new album from Battlecross, the band have announced they have recruited former the Black Dahlia Murder drummer Shannon Lucas to be the session drummer on the record. 

It's been an eventful week in metal. A few tours were announced, we posted some silly videos and bands were resurrected. Here are the top stories of the week: It's The MARILYN MANSON & AVRIL LAVIGNE Collaboration You Weren't Waiting For Nicolas Cage Headbanging Drop Everything & Listen To The New THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER [...]

I have yet to make it to a GWAR-B-Q, but it looks like this is the year for me to do it. The band will be holding the fourth annual party at Hadad's Water Park in Richmond, VA on Saturday, August 17th and have amassed quite the lineup. 

About two years ago now, word spread of a new metal supergroup forming featuring Killswtich Engage's guitarist Adam D., Cannibal Corpse vocalist, George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher and Black Dahlia Murder drummmer Shannon Lucas. We confirmed the news a year later, but things have been ho-hum on the supergroup front, until now.

Each week on ‘Throwback Thursday’ we dust off a crucial but underrated album, without which heavy metal’s evolution would have turned out quite differently. This week we creep into the mausoleum of doom, there to awaken the stiff-limbed undead corpse of Chicago’s Trouble and their genre revitalizing eponymous debut, later known as Psalm 9.

When you create something this fucking awesome, you have to give yourself some time to prepare. That is why details have been announced seven months in advance for Philip Anselmo's inaugural Horrorcore Horror Film Festival, which takes place this October in Austin, Texas. Not only will Eyehategod and Crowbar be performing during the festival along [...]

Who's in the mood for some new music from New York's own death metal juggernaut, Immolation? The band just released a lyric video for the title track of their ninth long player. The track and forthcoming album are titled Kingdom of Conspiracy and the North American release date for the album is May 14th on Nuclear Blast Records. Take [...]

If you like weed and death metal, this is the tour for you. I'm kind of shocked that High Times didn't come on board as a sponsor, because the copious amount of toking that will take place on the Hell In July tour will be legendary. Six Feet Under just announced they'll be spending July [...]

An ominous chorus begins to swell as a deadpan drum is beaten in the background. A voice comes onto the microphone like a demonic preacher and begins to spew sermon. Staring at the album's cover and listening to the prophetic banter, suddenly things start to come together. The grounds will crack, the dead shall raise [...]
