Metal Injection

One band that gets a ton of hate from Metal Injection junkies is Black Veil Brides. Apparently, the members of the band didn't seem to excited to be interviewed by us either. During that interview, the band said they were working on a new album, and it seemed they were taking their time with it. [...]

Thanksgiving weekend just got a whole lot more metal for Southern California fans. The California Metalfest just announced the lineup for it's four year running, and it's a blockbuster array of heavy metal acts. The whole night will be headlined by Killswitch Engage celebrating the 10th anniversary of their breakthrough album Alive Or Just Breathing by [...]

Black Veil Brides have pulled out of a few stops in Europe over the death of singer Andy Biersack’s grandfather.  This includes their sets at the Gods of Metal Festival in Italy and Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium.

You may have noticed we've been uploaded a healthy dosage of interviews from last week's Revolver Golden Gods Awards. The stressfest known as the black carpet was conquered once again and we were able to score some fun interviews with Dee Snider, Evanescence, Machine Head, Dave Lombardo's PHILM, Asking Alexandria, Zakk Wylde, Halestorm, Fear Factory, As I Lay Dying, Chris Jericho, Brendon Small of Metalocalypse, Jose Mangin, Vinnie [...]

First off, look at that photo! The perfect summation of this year's Revolver Golden Gods Awards, the biggest metal party of the year. There were some awesome jams happening. Slipknot's Corey Taylor and Machine Head's Robb Flynn joined Trivium onstage to cover "Creeping Death," which was awesome. The biggest surprise of the night came at [...]

The fine folks at Revolver magazine have just released a second announcement about their annual award show, the fourth annual Revolver Golden Gods Awards. Previously, they announced performances from Marilyn Manson, Slash, Evanescence, Sixx:AM, and Black Veil Brides. You can also add Korn and Trivium to that list of performances. Dee Snider will be performing [...]

Every year, the Revolver Golden Gods Awards ends up being the biggest party of the year when it comes to metal. We always run into a lot of big names on the red black carpet. The last few years a truncated version of the show has aired on either VH1 Classic or MTV2. They would [...]

I have no idea how this came about but it looks like Zakk Wylde has agreed to contribute a solo to Phil LaBonte's favorite band, Black Veil Brides. First, he goes on American Idol and now this? Is Zakk trying to stay relevant with the kids of today? I guess, it's pretty good business for [...]

Last week, we pointed out the idiotic homophobia of All That Remains frontman Phil LaBonte with his pointless slurs at the frontman of Black Veil Brides. I guess Frankie Palmeri keeps up with the metal blogs because he decided to chime in with some words of wisdom. We all know he loves using "faggot", so he decided [...]

Yesterday, we called out All That Remains frontman Phil Labonte for calling the singer of Black Veil Bridesa "faggot". We weren't the only ones to do so, and since Phil clearly has nothing better to do, he's taken to his social media accounts to defend himself. The gist of my argument was that the dude is a role model and shouldn't be [...]

All That Remains frontman Phillip Labonte is a very opinionated person, not having any qualms with discussing his political views on social networks, and that's all well and good, but a recent status update (seen above) went too far, in this writer's personal opinion. Labonte posted a photo of himself and the vocalist of Black [...]

It's Hallo-weekend. I was going to go dressed as the easiest Waldo ever to spot, but I never had enough time to buy my outfit, so I'm just going as 'the dude from Metal Injection.' I wonder how many people will figure it out. If you're spending the weekend indoors, or reading this after waking [...]

Have you guys heard of this Soundwave Festival in Australia happening next February? It's a touring festival, hitting big cities like Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide and it features pretty much every huge radio metal band of the 90s (System Of A Down, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Marilyn Manson, Staind, and a lil Meshuggah) as [...]

Avenged Sevenfold will not be spending the Winter at home, instead opting to hit the road for a massive arena tour with Hollywood Undead, Asking Alexandria and Black Veil Brides for the 'Buried Alive' tour. Despite my personal opinions of most of these bands, I have to commend them on being able to sell out [...]

The Revolver Golden Gods 2011 are in the can. While highlights are set to air on VH1 Classic next month, there is no way the one-hour broadcast will highlight what a special night it was overall for metal. Here is a full run-down of all happenings at the event:
