Tim Lambesis isn't going anywhere. At the conclusion of the As I Lay Dying frontman's bail hearing earlier today, the judge lowered his bail to $2 million, which Lambesis' attorney claims is still too expensive for Lambesis. Lambesis had plead not guilty to one count of solicitation of murder after attempting to hire a hitman to murder his wife.

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 [...]

First thing's first: Last week's winner! Congratulations to Justin Fontes who had the best zinger: They were 18 when the last necrophagist album came out. He'll be getting a free CD from our grab bg. Now for this week's fun photo to caption: This week, we're giving away a free CD from our grab bag, [...]

Well this is fun. Andreas Kisser made an appearance on a children's show in Brazil called "Cocoricó." The entire conversation is in Portuguese, so I don't know what the hell is going on. It is pretty entertaining though. Check it out here.

So you're in the mood for some Alice in Chains, but the doomier styling of bands like Woods of Ypres has been calling your name all day. Making a playlist isn't going to cut it; you want your 20-ton slow jams with a heaping side of vocal harmonies right now! Welcome to A Pale Horse [...]

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.

Periphery are on a bit of a break right now as they get ready for Summer Slaughter and guitarist Misha Mansoor decided "hey, why not cover a Meshuggah classic?" So that's what he did…

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. 

Metallica announced their (not very cheap) pinball game a few weeks ago, and I have to say, after watching this mini-playthough video, I really want to play the game.

Record label Hydra Head are selling off a bunch of really cool stuff to close down their Los Angels HQ. Heartbreaking for most, but it could be one hell of a treasure trove for all y'all fans!

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 [...]

We knew this was coming, they just had to confirm it. At next week's celebration of Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman's life, the Westboro bapitist church will stage a protest.

Legendary progressive metal band Cynic are in the mixing process for their new album. Apparently they're gunning hard for that fall 2013 release date!

We've been posting up singles from Kylesa's upcoming effort Ultraviolet as they've been released, but now it's time to hear the album in full!

Japan's Coffins have been exhumed for the first time since 2008 with their upcoming record, The Fleshland. Now you hear what decay sounds like.
