Somewhere in Chicago, Black September are working hard on their next album. OK, that’s a humungous assumption on my part. I shouldn’t say they are working hard. In fact, I have no idea how hard they are working. They could just be sitting around, smoking weed and comparing dick sizes, for all I know. But Read More
As you well know, we like A Life Once Lost here. And as you well know, A Life Once Lost have been working on a new album for Season of Mist for what seems like a year now. Well, this weekend, A Life Once Lost were joined by a mysterious “long time friend” in the Read More
That’s right, you cock-knock. Canadian heavy metal trio Cauldron are hard at work on their third full-length album — the follow-up to 2010′s Burning Fortune. The album is being recorded in Parkdale, Toronto, where Cauldron is once again working with producer Jameson Elliott. The as-yet untitled CD is due to be released later this year Read More
So, I had one hell of a day today. I awoke to no hot water in my building, which means my balls likely smell like munster at this point. Then I was in court, for a small claims case I initiated. Some BMW-driving, tank-ass havin’ soccer mom backed into my PARKED car back in March. Read More
Today was kind of a sombre day for me. Not only was it the two-year anniversary of Dio’s death, but for my day job, I had to cover something kinda depressing. I don’t really wanna get into it, but needless to say, the kind of news I was covering never ends happily. Still, something about Read More
Looks that way. Well, if Lamb of God is touring this summer with Gojira and Dethklok, and the show just returned to the air, it would seem the perfect time for such an endeavor. Brendon Small seems to be hinting that he gets that the timing’s right, because it appears a new Dethklok album is Read More
Not together, of course. But oh yes, folks — it is happening. Two bands I used to love and now wish would go back to the way they sounded ten years ago are in the studio, working on new albums I will likely listen to once, and say “Fuck, why can’t it be 2000 again?” Read More
Oh yeah, fucker. You know what time it is! Toulouse, France’s post-apocalyptic metal monsters Eryn Non Dae have finished mixing and mastering their sophomore album. The follow-up to 2009’s Hydra Lernaia is said to be “about metamorphosis,” and will feature the songs “Scarlet Rising,” “Chrysalis,” “The Great Downfall” and “Black Obsidian Pyre.” The CD was Read More
October is maybe one of my favorite months of the year. The weather’s just right, the leaves on the trees change from green to brilliant oranges and reds, and it ends with Halloween. Now, Stone Sour have gone and ruined it by planning their release within the very same month. Boo! Stone Sour leader Corey Read More

After finishing my most recent bathroom book (Albert Camus’ “The Stranger”), I started a book I had Read More
