Anaal Nathrakh will play the Scala venue in London on December 14 with Sigh, and it might be their last-ever show. In a statement made by Anaal Nathrakh issued in September (and seemingly missed by the metal media, ourselves included), the band will play the show with Dave Hunt on vocals alongside some usual live […]

Distant‘s new single “Human Scum” falls somewhere in the middle of brutal deathcore, industrial madness, and whatever the hell it is that Car Bomb does to make their guitars sound like broken computers. I’d say have fun moshing, but this one feels more like you’re two seconds away from having an existential crisis about all […]

SOEN Streams Cover Of SLIPKNOT’s “Snuff”

Soen is now streaming their cover of Slipknot‘s “Snuff” from their upcoming livestream-turned-live-album Atlantis due out November 18.

Watch LAMB OF GOD Play “Redneck” With Three Guitarists Live

Lamb Of God treated the Aftershock Festival audience to their first-ever performance with three guitarists live! The band brought out frequent live fill-in Phil Demmel for an especially heavy version of “Redneck” which you can check out fan-filmed footage of above. It’s killer, and Lamb Of God really ought to consider bringing Demmel into their […]
