Metal Injection

Born of Osiris have posted two new clips to their Vine account of some upcoming jams! I'm just going to keep reporting on these until I stop getting excited about them. Which will never happen.

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 [...]

So remember how I was saying they only went into the studio not so long ago? Well, now there's some material you can preview… and it rules.

Born of Osiris are gearing up for another record due out in the summer of 2013 (according to statements made by the band earlier this year). On a scale of one to stoked, how bad do you want this?

Duff McKagen knows a thing or two about touring. He was part of one of the biggest rock acts of the late 20th century, Guns N Roses, and then later found success with Velvet Revolver and his "solo" project, Loaded. The guy is also a prolific writer, recently penning an autobiography, as well as a [...]

March is about five months away, but Born Of Osiris want you to know that's exactly when they will be entering the studio to record the followup to 2010's The Discovery. The band has been writing for quite a while, and must have a metric assload of new material, as hints of new songs were [...]

I'd like to draw your attention to one of the coolest people and programs I've met along my travels over the years. Rachel Taft is her name, and accommodating hungry-tired bands is her game. There are many blog posts out there that discuss the hardships of touring, and how one of the many vital ways [...]

We've discussed how little bands make on the road before and how unglamorous touring life is for a "working class" musician. Our post "It Seems Bands Don't Make Money Off Touring Either" is one of the most read posts in Metal Injection's history. When not living large in their fancy "crib", Born Of Osiris guitarist [...]

Well this has been a crazy week for me, personally, just readjusting to being back on land and not on a cruise ship. Many emails were sent and answered and work was caught up on, but most importantly, the metal kept on. Here are the biggest stories of the week: Seeing as though we got [...]

Another week has passed, which means we are one week closer from the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise. I absolutely can't wait to get on board and party, as well as live-blog our whole experience for those of you who weren't able to make it. It's going to be a killer time. One more week [...]

A few hours ago, Born Of Osiris posted an update to their Facebook page, announcing they were parting with guitarist Jason Richardson. The update seemingly took the high road, stating "This was something that just needed to happen. We will be a more creative, energized, and focused unit as a result. The past year was [...]

After putting out a fake leak a few weeks ago, Born Of Osiris is now legitimately streaming their new album, The Discovery in full all day today on their Facebook page. They have also released a live music video for the track, "Recreate", which is definitely my favorite track on the album.

We've been pranked before, but this one's for real. Born of Osiris have unleashed the track "Two Worlds of Design", now available for streaming on Noisecreep. As Metalsucks astutely points out, it sounds a whole lot like Meshuggah with some ice cream truck samples. But hey, better Meshuggah than say Limp Bizkit, right? What do [...]

I thought something was up when Sumerian Records head Ash Avildsen started a tirade on illegal downloaders with "hey all you jobbers…," which sounded a bit like a wrestling promo aimed at people looking to catch a sneak peak of Born of Osiris's new record, The Discovery. Ash pretty much let the whole world know [...]

Holy crap! 2008 isn't even over and there are already a slew of awesome tours coming around, and now its time to add yet another package to the lineup: DESPISED ICON will be hitting the road with BENEATH THE MASSACRE, CARNIFEX, NEURAXIS and THE PLASMARIFLE. Tour dates are still being gathered, but here are the [...]
