At a show last week, Disturbed set off the sprinkler system.

To add some impressiveness to the humorousness, the band also finished out their
Pantera made a splash with rabid fans last week when they reintroduced the 1994 song “Slaughtered” back to their set list. The band played the song on July 28 at The Pavilion at Lake Star in Burgettstown, PA on their tour with Lamb of God. They included the song as part of their encore to

Sam Mooradian, the renowned guitarist of Fallujah, dropped his first album as a solo act, Bad Brain, yesterday. Mooradian says about the album: “Bad Brain feels like a musical companion to emotionally difficult times. It’s the result of years of trying to hone my own sound and style of prog metal while also navigating significant

Holy crappola! Sometimes some of us — mostly me — will casually throw around the phrase “friends of Decibel” in reference to those bands/artists/supporters/benefactors/swell human beings who are indeed friends of Decibel. Recently, after being approach by our old friends in death-grinders Rottenness about whether there was website real estate available to the tell the
Colorado USBM outlaws Wayfarer saddle up with their new LP American Gothic, and we’ve managed to commandeer our own exclusive variant from Profound Lore on Marble Gunsmoke vinyl, limited to a mere 90 copies! After a decade spent reconnoitering the dark soul of America, the black clad bandoleros tapped noted audio-desperado Arthur Rizk to forge their signature blend of
Greetings, Decibel readers! Interesting, all of this chat going around lately about nu-metal making a comeback. I remain skeptical for a number of reasons, not the least that people already went around saying this in 2014 when Issues came around, and then no revival happened. Sure, some people erroneously put the label on Code Orange,

Decoherence, the enigmatic U.K. black metal innovators, release their haunting third full-length album, Order, this week. This mechanized odyssey draws listeners into a realm of absolute darkness and existential emptiness, exploring humanity’s insignificance within the vast expanse of reality.

Someone better check the temperature down in Hell, because it’s late July 2023 and I’m writing a MetalSucks post about Vince Neil actually sounding half decent during a recent show.

Last year, a product called The Real Thing cropped up on Kickstarter that could only be described as a weird little tabletop roleplaying game that was loosely based on — and endorsed by — Faith No More and their releases.

The promo text initially grabbed me with the promise that Quiet Man are “bringing the darkness back to psychedelia.” Then I quickly realized that the band was a
