Fans of the now-defunct (but still epic) SubRosa, get stoked on vocalist Rebecca Vernon’s new project The Keening. The music has some definite similarities to SubRosa, but also a distinctly more folk-influenced feel. Their debut album comes out October 6 via Relapse Records, and last week they dropped the title track, “Little Bird,” with an

Ringworm dropped their new record, Seeing Through Fire, yesterday alongside a video for “House of Flies.” The album is out via Nuclear Blast Records, and the video has a fun, old-school horror feel playing on early fall nostalgia. Vocalist Human Furnace says about the record: “We’re pretty pumped on Seeing Through Fire. It’s a total

Revered co-creator of Metalocalypse Brendon Small admits that Metallica, namely the Some Kind of Monster documentary, majorly inspired the show. The movie, which came out in 2004, shows all the turmoil the band were famously going through right before they recorded St. Anger.

Post-hardcore suffered an incredible loss with the passing of Pitchfork/Drive Like Jehu/Hot Snakes shaman Rick Froberg, but the scene is arguably stronger than ever. Exhibit A is Strangelight. The Bay Area quartet, featuring members of Kowloon Walled City and Transistor Transistor, only need two minutes to flex their angular, brash, feverish skronk with “Power, Rent,

One month out from the release of his second solo effort CMF2, Slipknot frontman and dude that’s not afraid to sing the Spongebob Squarepants theme in front of a crowd Corey Taylor dropped another single, titled “Talk Sick.” As the album’s third single, “Talk Sick” takes a different approach than the previous two offerings in

There’s something about this Italian retro doom trio’s logo and name, Bottomless, that evoke Pentagram’s Relentless-era. Which, as it turns out, isn’t too far off-base in regard to the music on their debut album, The Banishing, we’re premiering here.
