With 2026 in sight, Larcenia Roe has a lot on their plate. Tons of tour dates coming up, which is great considering they released their debut album Extraction earlier this year. With all that in mind, they put out a new music video for the track “Lean” earlier today, following its initial premiere on Nik

Has anything heavier ever reached the Audiotree stage? Possibly, but Converge certainly solidified their place in top 5 heaviest, I’m sure. They performed four tracks during their session earlier this year on May 11 from Audiotree’s Chicago studio, and they’ve now put it up as a stream. You can watch it below. Converge’s brief setlist

Add this to the list of why big corporations are goddamn devils—they always get the best shit. While so many of us are getting pizza in the break room or aren’t getting a company holiday party at all, the employees of some big ass company got a fuckin stacked bill to play their lil shindig.

If you’ve ever experienced NAMM, or the National Association of Music Merchants, trade show, then you know it’s a sensory overload of music appreciation, offering so much shit to walk around and see. So many people to talk to. When it comes to who’s bringing some of the heavy, it’s former Exodus frontman Steve “Zetro”

Over the last few weeks, we’ve heard rumblings of who will be playing next year’s Milwaukee Metal Fest. First, it was confirmed that Acid Bath would be headlining and that was why the festival’s dates were moved. Then we learned that not only was Iron Reagan reuniting, but they were playing at The Rave/Eagles Ballroom

Man, what a fucking roller coaster of a week. It has to be the absolute worst time to be a Mets fan right now, what with closer Edwin Diaz and star slugger Pete Alonso off to new teams and the front office seemingly having zero fucking idea what it’s doing. But then again I got

There are moments in life when you look back and wonder how you got out of it unscathed. Maybe it was a wild prank you played in high school, maybe it was a wild scenario that played out while on vacation, but it was something that you look back and think “I should have died!”

Honestly, you can’t blame ’em. The families of the late Static-X frontman Wayne Static and his late wife Tera Wray have been VERY open about how they don’t approve of an unauthorized documentary on the couple’s “intense and often turbulent relationship” intending to be made by filmmaker Matt Zane. The documentary hasn’t been made yet,

What on Earth is going on with Kyle Rasmussen, y’all? After all of the shenanigans involving him being left by his former Vitriol bandmates at a Vermont gas station after a mid-tour cocaine breakdown last month, Rasmussen has returned in a strange way. He’s sarcastically soft launched an alternate persona he calls “Preta,” which I’m

Roughly two weeks after announcing her split from Arch Enemy, vocalist Alissa White-Gluz has officially embarked on her solo career with the release of her first single, “The Room Where She Died.” Though this is her first official sololo release, it’s not the first time making music on her own. Long-time fans know she’s been

It wasn’t long ago that Indian metal band Bloodywood was touring all over the place with Babymetal this past summer and as a supporting act for Hailstorm during their run through Europe. Now that those tours are over, Bloodwood annoucned today that they’ll be headlining their own run of dates dubbed the ‘System of a

Post-hardcore/progressive metal outfit Eidola have found a new home after signing with 3DOT Recordings and they’re about to head out on tour under that new banner. Announced earlier today, the major move for the band means they’ll now be under the same umbrella as some other killer acts, including Periphery, Boundaries, Astronoid, Wiltwither, Obeyer, For

Ready for a hauntingly ethereal and kinda melanchonlic track from Nothing? You probably aren’t, but I’m not here to judge that. I’m only here to give you the good news that the band’s next release a short history of decay is still slated for release this coming February and this new track “Purple Strings” is

Sometimes, it’s best to just keep your mouth shut. You’d think that’s something Kiss frontman Gene Simmons would’ve learned by now, at his big ass age, but alas, here we are. Simmons did an interview with the New York Post where he said some victim-blamey shit in poor taste. According to him, late Kiss guitarist

The Acacia Strain are yet again in the holiday spirit, considering their holiday festival “Tune Low Die Slow” is next weekend on December 13 and 14. The fest takes place at Empire Live in Albany, NY, but if you can’t make it up to the cold hell of upstate, the entire shindig will be livestream

Skid Row‘s former frontman Erik Grönwall has just announced his very first solo concert since leaving the band back in March of 2024. His show is set to take place May 26, 2026 at Cirkus in Stockholm, Sweden. Grönwall posted the following to his socials Friday, December 5: “This one is BIG. Like… ‘first time

We at MetalSucks and firebrand Sumerian Records founder Ash Avildsen have not gotten along in the past. We’ve battled over political issues, he’s called us communists (personally, I’m a socialist so he was wrong there…), it’s been a tumultuous few years. Yet for every moment we’ve criticized his disappointing festival decisions, we’ve also stood with

If you thought you were going to finally get to listen to Slipknot’s Look Outside Your Window before the year’s end, I’ve got some unfortunate news for you. It turns out that once again, things have gotten in the way of its release and it’s now looking like it’s coming out at some point in

It’s an exciting moment for festival organizers everywhere: you’ve finalized the list of bands set to perform on your stages and now’s the time to let the public know what’s up. Earlier today, the folks behind the annual event released the final batch of bands added to their lineup and it’s a doozy. Set to

As Megadeth begins the three to five year process of saying goodbye and hanging it up, we’re all going to be hit with long ass lists of tour dates from various legs of their farewell tour. Earlier today, we got what could be the first batch of final European shows ever for the mighty Megadeth.
