Coliseum, who announced their reunion in November of last year, just dropped details about their first show since they broke up in 2015. Also known as C.L.S.M. and hailing from Louisville, KY, the band will be getting back up on stage on April 20, 2024 at Planet Of The Tapes in Louisville. Guitar and vocalist

The tea is piping hot with this one. Original Anthrax bassist Dan Lilker just spilled all in an interview with Talk Louder, which you can stream in full below. Lilker opens up about tensions with the band’s former singer Neil Turbin and the fact that he was allegedly “asked to leave and had no choice”

You might wonder why we’re covering Carried Underwood, but it’s because she’s a metalhead, of course! She just launched her own workout channel, and apparently, her favorite workout song is “Watch the World Burn” by Falling In Reverse. Her SeriusXM channel, cleverly titled “Carr-dio,” proudly features the song. Underwood is a known rock and metal

Gravesend just announced a crushing death metal tour across the U.S. East Coast alongside Maul. Although Gravesend hail from New York and Maul come from Fargo, North Dakota, the vastly different home scenes don’t stop the bands from having a lot in common when it comes to their sound and straightforward, gnarly approach to the

Philadelphia’s Fragile Body takes post-metal and does the unthinkable–rather than letting the music meander and grow slowly, their debut single “Anhedonia” takes the famously bloated style and compacts it, making it sleek and digestible. Ideal for multiple listens in one sitting rather than post-metal’s multi-session marathoning, “Anhedonia’”s sub-three-minute length captures the genre’s highlights–the build-ups, the

Greeting, Decibel readers! This week’s edition of Five for Friday is kind of a mix of fresh new releases and a catching up on some interesting work left over from December. You’ll also notice that the selections below are all from lesser-known and obscure artists. It’s a bit of a light week for new stuff,

All the warning signs were there. We should’ve seen The Ethereal Mirror coming. The large majority of us didn’t. The glacial pace of Forest of Equilibrium and its overcast attitude weren’t going to be replicated on Cathedral’s second album. The Coventry-based outfit had moved on for all intents and purposes, with 1992’s Soul Sacrifice EP

Motörhead. Venom. Hellhammer. Bulldozer. All bands that were despised, sometimes ridiculed, from the onset of their careers. Though it’s an ignominious distinction to be reviled so publicly, for bands that survive the initial battering, there can sometimes be redemption. Italian trio Bulldozer—who certainly owe a musical debt to at least two of the aforementioned bands

A major change within Belgian death metal outfit Aborted was announced earlier today, as their long-time bassist Stefano Franceschini announced that he was stepping away to pursue higher learning. Now, he hadn’t been touring with the band during their recent runs, as he was already in the midst of his educational journey, which started during

Looks like fans of California-based tech/prog deathcore duo Entheos won’t have to wait nearly as long as they had in the past for new tunes, as it looks like they’re back in the studio. Remember, six years took place before they followed up on their 2017 album Dark Future with last year’s Time Will Take

The new video for “The Top,” from Colorado Springs post-metal sludge lords Clarion Void is sorta like Groundhog Day with a lot of glowing blue objects. Woman wakes up, drinks water, makes coffee, brushes teeth, etc. Oh yeah, and at one point that routine involves putting on what looks to be a glowing blue crocheted mask of

Since the very early days of metal, Doro Pesch has been holding a candle among the greats, first with her band Warlock, and then later and still to this day as a solo artist. While almost everyone in the heyday of heavy metal is male, except for Girlschool and a few other noteworthy exceptions, Pesch

Last year was seemingly a good one for Massachusetts-based death metal outfit Bonginator, having released their debut LP The Intergalactic Gorebong of Deathpot and being featured on MetalSucks on 4/20. You can be the judge which one was more important. But earlier today, they announced that 2024 is full of new beginnings and kick ass

There has to be a level of commitment when performing and touring in the same band that most of us “civilians” won’t really understand. Lots of sacrifices, lots of embarrassing moments, and for two members of Cradle of Filth found out, lost of love to uncover as well. In a special New Years’ Day post

You know, it’s awesome that we get to live in a world where we’ve got all the sick up-and-coming bands out there but can still fall back and witness the legends to their thing. With things like YouTube making that whole process even easier, we’re spoiled with the amount of awesome content we get from

Some people argue with me that Jaws isn’t a horror movie. But I invite you to think of another movie that generated that much fear. As a kid, I was so scared of Jaws I was afraid of swimming in lakes, or being in my own bathtub. Raleigh, NC’s Into the Deep understands the terror

A special celebration took place the other night in Van Nuys, California that marked yet another year, as revelers hung out, sang songs, and all the while partied throughout the night. And while it was also New Year’s Eve, it was actually Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian‘s 60th birthday. That’s right — the big 6-0 came

If there’s anything shitty metal gatekeepers love more than anything, it’s being the first person in a comment thread to tell you how much they hate Ghost and don’t think their music is metal enough. We’ve seen it all before and we’ll likely see a ton of it on this post. But that’s neither here

It didn’t take long for 2024 to pop off with some domestic abuse allegations and the ensuing backlash, did it? Earlier today, the Las Vegas-based hardcore band Roman Candle announced that they were cutting ties with their then bassist Nico Borgia after domestic abuse and sexual assault allegations began making the rounds online.
