Slayer is a band that have basically done it all. They are legends of heavy metal. But this wasn't always the case. Kerry King was recently interviewed, and asked about the moment when he realized his band "made it" and his answer turned into a rant on newer bands and their sense of entitlement:

Watch all MI's interviews from the Golden Gods here:http://met.al/1a4 - We talk to the guys in Prong about touring with Soulfly, their future, and some rumors that Tommy Victor taught Madonna how to play this Pantera riff:http://www.metalinjection.net/tv/view/661/madonna-covers-pantera—a-new-level

Metallica are a money making machine! In the last few months, we've learned how much both James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich are currently worth, but you know the old saying… it takes money to make money. While the band didn't do much extensive touring in the United States, they did do the European summer festival [...]

Remember when Madonna played that Pantera riff and we actually thought it was really cool? This is like that, except the exact opposite. Fitness guru Richard Simmons was spotted by Metal Insider donning corpse paint in a recent tweet with the caption "KISS ME." I'm assuming that's a pun based on the band, KISS. I'm [...]

As some of us intelligent people might know, there have got to be a few reasons why black metal weapons look so primitive and are being used as part of many a band's fashionable poses in black metal photo shoots.

The fine folks behind hipster rag Vice magazine have launched a new series, On The Road, which is hosted by Eagles of Death Metal frontman Jesse Hughes traveling to shows not to interview the bands, but the people who make the bands look good, the shadow warriors…the road crew. It's a pretty fascinating series, with [...]

Move over Madonna. You're not the only pop diva with a metal cover in your arsenal. Adam Lambert, an American Idol runner up turned pop star of the moment, decided cover his of said guitarist's favorite songs, Enter Sandman by Metallica as a birthday present to said guitarist. And guess what? Adam can sing. Sure, [...]

By Ben Apatoff Why should fiction get all the fun? There are plenty of great metal rockumentaries, especially in the past few years, and the best ones absolutely deserve their own list. To prevent this from being a list of the 6,6(66) greatest metal docs, I'm ruling out concert movies (sorry, Flight 666) and other [...]

2008 was a great year for ridiculously silly metal viral clips to be passed around to distract you from doing your work. We thought we would take a look back at our favorite 10 metal viral clips from last year: 10) The Meshuggah Baby This is absolutely the most metal baby on the internet. No [...]

Headbangers Blog recently had a chance to speak with DIMMU BORGIR's guitarist, who much like MADONNA only goes by one name…Silenoz. Unlike Madonna, Silenoz is a satanist, and in these troubled times, can you blame him? Either way, Silenoz spoke about the band's recent DVD release, the band’s recent lineup changes, their co-headling Blackest of [...]

First off all, never did I think that I would be blogging about Madonna covering a metal band like ever. But she did! At a recent show, somewhere (who cares really?) Madonna decided to pull out a little "New Level" riffage in homage to one of the greatest shredmasters of our time, Dimebag Darrell. And, [...]
