I've spoken of my love of Agalloch in the past, it's a band that everybody here at Metal Injection can agree about. And now, we can see them live in our backyard. Well, not literally...that would be awesome. The band has announced a month's worth of dates all through the US, hitting major markets like ...
Agalloch are gonna tour North America this summer, and I know what you're thinking - "It's as part of the Scream Like You Mean It Tour, right?" Alas, no.

Tilburg, Netherlands was the place to be this weekend if you appreciate heavy music AT ALL . It's my 2nd trip to Roadburn , and not likely to be my last. This is the festival that screams community in all the right ways. The festival's head, Walter, crafts a lineup from the roots of doom, rock and riff heavy original rock to the latest avant garde satanic acoustic bands, and it all works! This is the companion post to go with my program airing today, April 19th from Noon-3pm (if you're reading [...]
So many good albums, so little time. Seattle's Agalloch, who I fell in love with deeply a few years ago through their atmospherical opus Ashes Against The Grain and have constantly came back and been amazed by how huge this band sounds. Whenever there is a rain storm and I am in a shitty mood, ...
With the extreme level of fanboyism for Agalloch rampant in the metal community, you'd've thunk someone would've let us know by now that Agalloch posted a Facebook update on March 30th about new music they're working on - a whole five days ago!! But nope, that's how long it took for MetalSucks reader Garrett C. to alert us [...]

MetalSucks recently polled its staff to determine The Top 25 Modern Metal Drummers, and after an incredible amount of arguing, name calling, and physical violence, we have finalized that list! The only requirements to be eligible for the list were that the musician in question had to a) play metal (duh), b) play drums (double-duh), and [...]
I've seen Hellion. I love it. If you enjoyed the portrayal of messed up kids (or adults who refuse to grow up) in films such as River's Edge, Bully, Alpha Dog, or Boys Don't Cry, then you will appreciate this six-minute marvel of metallic and familial mayhem. Hellion was directed by University of [...]
In this second part of his four-part feature into Black Metal's sonic evolution over the last two decades, Tom Dare is setting his sights on two aspects of the genre's evolution that almost seem to run counter to the musical tenets of its early years. Today he's looking at how Black Metal has come to embrace both its proggier and more ambient sides.... 3) Progressiveness Black metal's never quite got the credit for how progressive it has been [...]

It's that time of year to look back on the past 12 months and say "what the hell happened to the last 12 months?!". It's also that time of year where us music bloggers and self-proclaimed critics take the time to put together some Best Of lists for your reading pleasure. They don't really mean a whole lot and you can love 'em or leave 'em, but it seems like the right thing to do to sum up the year in preparation of the next. This year we're featuring personal lists from all of our fantastic writers. [...]
For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere of Planet Earth today marks the winter solstice, which also means it's the longest night of the year. Here's some appropriately dark metal to get you through: Relax... things are looking up from hereon out, folks. -VN
