Tuesday night at The Maywood was a totally killer show. Featured on the bill were Abuse. (Raleigh's own power violence trio), Child Support (Raleigh hardcore - first show), Pennsylvanian straight edge-cool-dudes Hounds of Hate, and U.K.'s straight edge punks Violent Reaction. Child Support were not bad at all for it being their first show. They definitely ruled and brought a decent mosh! Probably the coolest first show I've ever seen. The vocalist is a high school kid who goes nuts running around, pushing everyone violently away as he rushes through the crowd. Definitely looking forward to [...]
Maryland Deathfest , the self-proclaimed biggest American metal party of the year, is quickly creeping up! With tickets having been rapidly selling since the fest's lineup announcements last year, it is nearly impossible now to get tickets to any of the big events through the fest's official website. Tickets to the Thursday Sonar show ( Bolt Thrower ) and Friday's Soundstage show ( Infest ) are current in incredibly high demand. Thursday has an extremely impressive line-up, featuring the almighty Bolt Thrower, who hardly comes to the United States as it is! Funeral doom gods Evoken [...]
For those of you who have no idea about modern punk bands, there's an insane fest coming up that definitely destroys most punk shows I've seen popping up recently. Damaged City Fest is a huge fest taking place in DC (get it?) on April 12th and 13th at St. Stephen's Church. And coolest of all, Double Negative (Raleigh hardcore) is playing. At the top of the poster is legendary hardcore punk band Negative Approach, whose song 'Ready To Fight' has been covered by literally half of the good bands I've seen in my life, if that says anything. [...]
Months after the tickets rapidly sold out, the weekend for A389 fest had finally come. I was stoked to say the least that I would finally get the chance to see Canadian hardcore legends Left For Dead, along with one of my all-time favorites, Weekend Nachos. This highly-anticipated event served as a birthday celebration for the owner of A389 records. Dom, A389 Records owner, is also a member of the hardcore band Pulling Teeth. The show was at The Ottobar in Baltimore, Maryland. The show opened with Sick Fix , a brutal female-fronted [...]

LOS ANGELES, USA (AP) — It took Leatherface and his chainsaw to chase tiny hobbit Bilbo Baggins out of the top spot at the box office. Lionsgate's horror sequel Texas Chainsaw 3-D debuted at No 1 with US$23 million, according to studio estimates yesterday. The movie picks up where 19742s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre left off, with masked killer Leatherface on the loose again. Quentin Tarantino's Read more [...]
For three days I hit the road with Raleigh's own Abuse. , a vicious hardcore act that plays brutal power violence with no time left between songs - just a stripped down, speedy hellstorm of chaos. Being one of my favorite Raleigh bands, I knew I had to hit the road with these dudes once they announced that they would be going on a 3-day mini-tour over winter break. The dates were announced: the dudes would first play in a basement in New Brunswick, New Jersey, another basement in West Philly, and a record store in DC by the [...]
Both touring bands and local ragers destroyed Katmandu on Hillsborough Street the night of November 9th. The bill for this devastating display of hardcore and grind madness was BrainXToilet (first show!), Mad Dog, Last Words, and Cheap Art , from Atlanta, Georgia. BrainXToilet - Photo by Will Butler Opening this killer show was BrainXToilet, a refreshing mix of blistering, technical grindcore and crushing breakdowns from Greensboro, NC. This band features members of another grind band from Greensboro, Priapus . Jordan, also the vocalist of [...]
The Apex Masonic Lodge , although not your typical show space, had a great turnout Saturday, October 13th, for Suburban Nightmare Festival. This event was thrown by David Baird (of Asheville's Drunk In A Dumpster ) as his own pre-birthday gathering. Although this is the first time Baird has put on Suburban Nightmare fest, he wishes to make it a yearly event! Raleigh's Last Words opened with a display of their own brand of purely viral piercing screams and crushing high-speed hardcore punk riffs. This female-fronted act set the mood for the night as [...]
There's no stopping the swanky russian trio. In the last two weeks, Swanky Tunes has revealed an absolute banger, alongside Kaskade, called ‘No One Knows Who We Are‘, had energy-filled night at Pacha NYC with R3hab, and released their new record label, Showland. To lay the cherry on top of an absolutely perfect summer, they [...]
I thought sing-along season was over! But it seems that R3hab has been listening to the radio, as this American Idol's electr0-pop (gross) top-40 bait has gotten that good old-fashioned (oldskool?) R3hab r3mix tr3atment. That is: popular vocal track meets bass drum quarter notes meets chainsaw synthesizers meets anthemic, euphoric keyboard arpeggios. Classic build up [...]
Ach Kinder, ich kann euch nur sagen: Was bin ich froh, damals im Februar zu dieser Party gegangen zu sein, wo auch Autodidakt auflegte. Ich war zwar eigentlich ziemlich müde, relativ unmotiviert und außer...
R3hab is no stranger to remixing tracks, but this time around he's taking on a movie theme song."Back in Time," the official track of the upcoming film Men In Black III , has a dirty Dutch feel to it with the usual R3hab chainsaws and bleeps. The ominous synths behind Pitbull's lyrics add a nice touch and truthfully we dont even mind Mr. Worldwide. Listen below and let us know how you feel about R3hab taking on such a mainstream track. Related: chainsaws , dirty dutch , men in black , pitbull , [...]
Hot off the presses, here is a new single from the master of madness, R3hab . As usual, the energy level is sky high as his signature ringing synths chainsaw into the air. The track is a pure jolt of adrenaline for the best and worst of night clubs everywhere. Cosmo's funky chanted lyrics also gives the track a little extra kick. Enjoy!

Smerk always drops gems on the WFGC DJ Boards . Like this one.
We were terrified something might have happened to R3hab since we hadn't heard a new remix from him in about eight days. Have no fear, Dancing Astronaut is relieved to bring you R3hab's latest work, a remix of Taio Cruz's "Troublemaker." Our guess is that R3hab 's chainsaws are too big to fit in a carry-on during his Asian tour, hence the streak of progressive house bangers . After cranking out four remixes in a week, R3hab gives us a track that layers mild chainsaws and wobbles under Taio Cruz's vocals as a lead-in [...]
This has been a great week for Raleigh: a show Monday, Dec. 5, and then a show Saturday, Dec. 10. AND they worked out perfectly with exams! Following the Inquisition show on Monday, Herpderp Booking presented Old Painless, No Tomorrow and Mutilation Rites on Saturday. Old Painless threw a little different vibe into the mix Saturday and played some convergent tunes. I didn't have a chance to take any pictures as my camera was acting up. I’m glad I was out of the room when a drumstick went flying. [...]
