Knowing this would be a grueling task, I made the decision to get shithoused and review the Read More

Album Review: Ghost’s Infestissumam

Posted by Jos. von Wienerhaus on April 18, 2013 in Reviews

I’m not a Ghost hater. I’ve listened to Opus Eponymous more times than I can count, but my last.fm account attributes 270 scrobbles to the Satanic Swedish sextuplet’s debut. After gushing over the album, I began to anticipate what the band would do next and had apprehensions about what it would sound like. The band Read More

Posted by Jos. von Wienerhaus on April 11, 2013 in Exclusive, Featured, Reviews

Of course you do! Metalheads read this site and metalheads know all of those bands. How silly of me! A lot of doom bands today Read More

Now, when I saw the lineup for the Metal Alliance tour back in December, I knew it was a show that could not be missed. So much so that I purchased VIP tickets immediately after getting word that Exodus was on the bill. I saw them two years ago opening for Slayer and Rob Zombie Read More

“It Sucks…But He’s So Good!” My Night With Gojira And Devin Townsend

Posted by Sean Harris on January 23, 2013 in Featured, Reviews, Video

If I didn’t have photographic or video evidence of the happenings I endured in Vancouver on January 19, I would be called a stinking liar. Words cannot describe the experience I had at The Vogue Theater that night, but I will try. Luckily, I have some awesome hook-ups and I was supplied the chance to Read More
