It is with a heavy, confused and frankly pissed-off heart that I have to tell you all that Angela Gossow (the women whom my pen name is derived) has stepped down as lead singer of Arch Enemy as of Monday afternoon. Now, this definitely comes as a shock, as this was announced just days after they confirmed a spot on the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise in early 2015. I […]
The past 2 days I have woken up and almost immediately turned on the fascinating new EP from a band that is creeping up on my favorites list, Wild Throne. The sometimes informative yet always entertaining MetalSucks debuted 'Bloodmaker' on Wednesday, and since then its culminated nearly 10,000 plays on the bands SoundCloud page. Now, normally I'll sprinkle in some satire and fairly unfunny jokes within my posts, but honestly, […]
Meanwhile, in Sochi... Its Friday, and therefore anyone who is awesome will be consuming alcoholic beverages upon their release from the hell they call work this evening. And some of those people may decide to drink vodka. It’s not overtly connected to metal, but it should be. Its clear, so it can easily be confused as water by many bands and their fans. It keeps […]
I have a very strong feeling that 2014 is going to be the year of crunchy rock-style, alternative metal and I have zero problems with that. Last week I introduced you guys to The Vintage Caravan, and this week I bring you something from Nothing. I mean, something can’t come from nothing unless it’s a band….called Nothing. I studied Philosophy in college…I could talk about “something from nothing” for a […]
We’re nearly through the first month of 2014, but most of us will continue to write “2013” on our bank slips well into late March, amirite?! We might as well just get used to filling out 2 bank slips for the first fiscal quarter of the year, let’s be honest here. Something I have no problem getting used to, however, is all the new metal January has provided us with! […]
First of all HAPPY NEW YEAR! Does it feel like 2014? No? Well I know something this year DOES feel like: fucking Siberia. Thanks to either weather modification or Mother Nature going through menopause, we here in Detroit (and pretty much all of the Midwest) are doing our best to stay warm and ya know…not die. Judging by the news reports, there is a strong chance that you, the reader, […]
About as WTF as this picture, except more metal with a dash of baby rape The older you get, the quicker time goes by. Its the end of 2013 (WE'RE IN THE FUTURE) so its only fitting to take a look back on what the year had to offer us in the world of metal. Along with some amazing album came some not-so-amazing moments that will keep us talking well […]
Red Fang did it again, you guys. The Oregon based metallers are well-known for their highly entertaining music videos, directed by their pal Whitey McConnaughy. In their videos, the group has battled a bunch of LARP nerds, crashed a car into a wall of milk jugs, and in their most recent installment released today by Rolling Stone Magazine, battled a horde of beer-lusting zombies! Spoiler alert: actor Fred Armisen of […]
Skeletonwitch Preferred Album: Serpents Unleashed Suggested Beer: Victory Brewing Co. “Golden Monkey” (good-luck remembering anything tomorrow!) If there is one band that evokes my love for beer with alcohol content that is absurdly high, it’s these guys. Their newest creation Serpent’s Unleashed imposes a punch to the face in the best way possible. If you plan on drinking to the point of no return, this album (and the rest of […]
