The show is scheduled for December 21st at the Fox Theater in Pomona, CA. The band will be playing a set of Suicide Silence tunes with a guest vocalist for every track. [...]

We knew it was coming! A few weeks ago, we reported that a Czech prosecutor recieved a report from the Czech police with their filing on the Blythe case, and the prosecutor had to make a decision. Today that decision was made, Blythe is being indicated.

Lamb Of God frontman may be enjoying his current US tour with Sylosis, Hatebreed and In Flames, but his trial is looming. It's been a few months since we've heard anything on the trial of Czech trial of Randy Blythe. Blythe is being accused of (what amounts to) manslaughter, based on allegations that he pushed a [...]

About six months ago, I pleaded with fellow bloggers and journalists to please stop asking drummer Vinnie Paul about a potential Pantera reunion. For the most part, nobody asked Vinnie. But then somebody had to go and ask frontman Phil Anselmo about it, and he said something about talking to Zakk Wylde, which he then [...]

After Randy Blythe was arrested in the Czech Republic, resulting in the cancellation of their North American tour with Dethklok, fans were bummed. Then, Lamb of God rescheduled their tour and everybody was excited, everybody except Canada, who would not get Lamb of God, allegedly because Randy could not leave the country. Well, it looks [...]

Look at that gorgeous artwork.  Eliran Kantor has done it again. He really impressed with with the artwork for Testament's Dark Roots of Earth, and this is quite the follow-up. Oh, and did we mention a new Hatebreed album is coming in 2013? 

So I don't think it's news to anyone now that Randy Blythe spent five weeks in a Prague Prison on suspicion of manslaughter. What may be news to some is that as soon as Randy was released and returned to the United states, he spoke to a local television news crew about the experience and the video is [...]

Anybody who's ever recorded any music knows…the vocals get recorded last. So this new Instagram photo posted by Hatebreed vocalist Jamey Jasta leads me to believe the band is almost done with their new album. Also, the caption to the photo says "It's almost done! You're gonna flip when you hear it." So that has [...]

The biggest news story of the year, without question, was Randy Blythe's five week detainment in a Czech prison over allegations of manslaughter stemming from a 2010 show, where a fan died after sustaining injuries from stage diving (and allegedly being pushed by Blythe). Blythe is free and now the band is looking to move [...]

The rumors are true! Dethklok is hitting the road in November and they're taking out some friends. As we speculated last week, the band will be heading out with Machine Head, All That Remains and The Black Dahlia Murder. The tour kicks off on October 30th in Norfolk, VA and wraps up a few weeks [...]

Everybody was bummed when the Lamb of God and Dethklok tour was cancelled, and double-bummed when Lamb Of God announced their rescheduled tour without the 'klok. But fear not, Metalocalypse fans. Dethklok is planning a headliner of their own. ThePRP is reporting that the band will soon announce a full US routing with Machine Head [...]

We knew it would be so! A few weeks back, the first date of Lamb of God's rescheduled tour surfaced and it showed the band will be playing with In Flames and Hatebreed. Today, we have a full routing. In Flames and Hatebreed will join the Richmond metal machine on the first leg of the [...]

Look, we get it. You need to get your story out there, and any mention of Pantera is a sure way to get things posted. Heck, I'm writing about it right now, and I've written about it before. But at this point, I just feel like we're repeating ourselves. A few months ago, Zakk Wylde [...]
