Metal Injection

There was a lot of big news this week, we heard further (although smaller) developments in the Tim Lambesis trial, Jeff Hanneman's memorial celebration was announced, and those slimbags at Westboro claimed they will be there to protest. We also saw how lavishly Metallica's James Hetfield once lived and learned that Guitar World has a [...]

Allow me to share in Axl Rosenberg's joy. Today, Trent Reznor tweeted that his longtime NIN collaborator, guitarist Robin Finck is back in the fold with Nine Inch Nails.

Whoa, Huntress just got a huge seal of approval from a Golden God of heavy metal. The band, who is working on a new album right now, has a new song which was co-written by Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead. 

Full disclosure: I loved Korn all the way up until college, then I discovered Slayer. It was a glorious time. The band lost me after Issues and then they just kept putting out sub-par material. I remember re-visiting some of their older stuff not too long ago, and deeming it still listenable. Although, I probably [...]

The new Death Division song is kinda like old-school Drowning Pool, but way worse and with a pretty terrible mix.

It's been almost two weeks since the tragic passing of Jeff Hanneman due to liver failure. Last week, the band announced the official cause of death being alcohol related cirrhosis and that a memorial will be held in his honor later this month. The band just released all the details surrounding the memorial:

Google Play has been Google's music store for about two years now, to compete with the likes of Amazon.com and iTunes, now Google is going after a different competitor with the launch of "Google Play Music All Access" and that competitor is Spotify.

In case you were wondering if Japan is truly more metal than the U.S., look no further than this photo from Fujigen Guitars (a Japanese guitar manufacturer).

We're just a few weeks away from the release of The Black Dahlia Murder's new album, Everblack and with anticipation gaining, the band released another sliver of music today, the track “Raped in Hatred by Vines of Thorn.”

Trash Talk apparently have gained drummer Thomas Pridgen (ex-Mars Volta), though the circumstances seem a little strange give their old drummer hasn't really quit.

It's been a little over two months since Lamb Of God frontman Randy Blythe has been acquitted of allegations of manslaughter in Prague, after a fan of the band, Daniel Nosek died from injuries sustained while stage-diving at a Lamb of God show. You can read our previous coverage of the trial here. Other than [...]

Arsonists Get All the Girls are ready to release their 5th record, Listen to the Color, which will feature former vocalist Remi Rodberg.

At one point Killing Joke were one of the most bulletproof post-punk bands around. Releasing their first single in 1978, they were right there with Wire and Gang of Four as indisputable early pioneers of the genre. In an era of Cold War hostilities and Reaganomics the band's (dead serious) brand of apocalyptic beats and conspiracy-oriented lyrics hit home with an [...]

I'm going to be completely forward with you on this one, I'm really not a fan and everything the band said this album was going to be, it isn't so far.

You may have heard recently through the grapevine that a band going by the name “Lesbian” exists. Furthermore, it has no female members, which should add all kinds of confusion to your plate and make you look twice before clicking “play” on one of the internet's favorite pastimes. After all, it is difficult to look [...]
