Before there was Sunn O))), there was Thorr’s Hammer. Now, the word “legendary” gets tossed around a lot, but few bands can actually bear such a hefty description. A band like Thorr’s Hammer—Seattle’s female-fronted death-doom quintet, which lasted for less than two months and then disbanded—are more than legendary. Thorr’s Hammer are mythological. The band
Pittsburgh-based thrash-crossover band Vicious Blade (fronted by Castrator vocalist Clarissa Badini) are debuting a new video, “Speed Leather and Hell,” from their Siege of Cruelty EP. Check it out here: Siege of Cruelty was released last year via the label Our Ancient Future. The video was directed by Steve Turselli and Solano Pictures. “Unchained, satanic, lycanthropy. This
If you head north from New York’s Big Apple, you can travel along the Hudson River until the city is a distant memory. The Hudson Valley is rich with wildlife and trees. Every year the foliage blooms with color, then withers as winter approaches. But even when the days are cold and at their shortest,
A couple of years ago, we learned that ex-Megadeth bassist David Ellefson was co-producing a documentary on the late drummer Nick Menza. Menza, who passed away in 2016 of heart disease while on stage with his band, Ohm, had played in Megadeth from 1989 to 1998. It’s now 2023 and we’ve learned that Ellefson’s now
Where they from?Miami, Florida. My parents moved to Orlando last year and, man, what a shithole! I mean the weather is great but unless you are one of those creepy Disney Adult fuckheads, there ain’t shit to do! Well, I did go mini-golfing with alligators, so there’s that I guess, but still, everything else just
The Swedish post-metal/post-hardcore quartet previously known as simply V has been reborn as Vorder with its latest pandemic-written and -recorded full length, False Haven. With roots in Sweden’s 90s hardcore scene, the outfit – Daniel Liljekvis (drums), Marcus Mackä Lindqvist (bass), Andreas Beier (guitar/vocals), Jonas Gryth (guitars) – have honed their anger and malevolence into something more

After nearly 30 years as part of the underground extreme music scene, the instrumental trio remains a singular figure, largely to due to a unique sound often characterized as “doom jazz.” If you’ve been sleeping on them since 1996, now’s time to wake
Cali crossover thrashers Dead Heat have returned with their brand new five-track EP Endless Torment, and the Decibel staff was so stoked on these rippers that we had to snag 125 copies on limited-edition Green inside Ultra Clear with Green & Red Splatter vinyl, courtesy of Tankcrimes and Triple B Records! Recorded by Armand John Anthony
What’s that? You needed a dose of crusty death metal to start your Monday morning? You’ll get exactly that in the form of Beyond Death, the second album from Finnish quartet Church of the Dead. Coming two years and a covers EP after their debut album, Beyond Death scratches the itch for filthy, punk-influenced death metal. Checking in
I originally discovered Toronto’s Phantom Lung and their roughhousing take on death ’n’ thrash metal infused grindcore via an appearance in a past Throw Me a Frickin’ Bone column. For this particular appearance in what I think is considered one of Decibel’s “socials,” the band was supposed to record and provide a pair of new
Atheist’s Kelly Shaefer and Testament’s Steve DiGiorgio have teamed up with guitarist/producer Ryan Vincent (Legend) and drummer Sean Rehmer (Dejector/Mercurial) for a stunning cover of Alice In Chains’ “Rotten Apple,” off the group’s 1994 EP Jar of Flies. While the track is already in rotation at Corridor of Covers on Liquid Metal on SiriusXM, Decibel
There’s a new track from Beltfed Weapon, titled “Eternal Fire,” and it features a host of impressive guests. The thrash/speed metal band is fronted by Frank Hetzel, and he often collaborates with impressive names for this project. The forthcoming EP, Darkened Demise, features a hefty list just on this one track, including Tim Aymar (Control
Static-X often get lumped in with the nu metal movement of the early 2000s, but they claim they fit in more with industrial bands. In fact, even back in their heyday the band tried to avoid the nu metal moniker by creating their own descriptor for their music, “evil disco.” In recent interview with Sense Music
Converge just announced tour dates in the U.K. and Europe with Dying Fetus, Archspire, Gatecreeper, Frozen Soul, Frontierer, and Terror.

Corey Taylor couldn’t say enough good things about Sleep Token, whose record released last week. Taylor, of Slipknot and Stone Sour fame, talked about the UK band, whose record Take Me Back To Eden dropped this past Friday. So far, the album is already getting love in some unlikely places. A recent interview reveals that
A weatherman has gone viral for his use of metal references in his recurring forecasts. Chris Michaels of WSLS 10 News is apparently a metalhead and is now known for quoting lyrics well-known metal bands when he is on the air. The meteorologist is based in Roanoke, Virginia, and became popular through his TikTok account,
You know, it’s almost like there are repercussions for your action. I’m not saying Marduk is a band full of angels, but maybe getting filmed doing a Nazi salute is a bad move in 2023. I mean, at least it was for one person in the last few days… Aside from that whole kerfuffle, there
In a recent interview, Jason Newsted talked up the authenticity he feels he puts into his pet project, Newsted. Specifically he feels the band is honest and doesn’t involve any “cheating.” In a new interview with 98.7 The Gater‘s The Jason & Franny Show, as transcribed by Blabbermouth, the famous Metallica bassist talked more about bringing back
Man, some killer music came out this week and as such, we’ve updated The MetalSucks Playlist with some bangers. New singles like Blackbraid’s “The Spirit Remains” and Mutoid Man’s “Call of the Void” made the cut, as well as some big drops like Ghost’s iteration of “Phantom of the Opera” from today’s release of Phantomime.
