Metal Injection

Just in case your city was missing out on the initial run of Summer Slaughter dates, fear not! You might in these!

Hey, remember that Norma Jean song "Shark Bite" that clocked in at six seconds? The band released it a few weeks back and I guess some people were having trouble understanding the lyrics so the band decided to release a lyric video: 

Heavy MTL is the biggest metal festival to hit Canada. While in previous years, it was accompanied by a Toronto version of the festival, this year, it's all Heavy MTL… happening August 10 and 11 at Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal, Canada.

The last time we checked into the Summer Slaughter festival was in October, when the extreme summer fest was hinting at bands for 2013, and now they're at it again.

When he's not being a dad on Summer Slaughter, bassist Nick Schendzielos is making funky bass videos. He just released a new clip called “Mullet Clown Bass Gun Control“ and it features Brian Hopp, his Cephalic Carnage bandmate. Needless to say, if you have problems with clowns this video is not for you. But if [...]
