With every band from Burzum to Blind Guardian indulging in overt Tolkien-worship, and given that if you had a pound for every time you listened to a metal song inspired by HP Lovecraft you could afford to run a Premier League football club as a plaything, we thought we'd compile one of our totally (not) comprehensive Top 6s on the most metal fantasy novels. This one may contain goblins. -- 6) Raymond E Feist – Magician [...]
There really seems to be something about Immortal that inspires baking. Is it that Immortal's simple black & white makeup translates well to the frosting palette? The power of Blashyrkh? Who knows, but whatever the reason, this isn't the first time we've seen an Immortal cake... or the second time... but the third. And the cakes [...]

We love metal cakes here. We've seen a rad Abbath cake before, a sweet Death cake, and even a cake based on the Metal Injection logo before, and now we can add another awesome cake to the metalsphere. While previous cakes came from Slaytanicakes, this cake comes from Charm City Cakes out of Balitmore, MD. ...
A reader named Bryan sent the below photos to us; they're of the birthday cake his girlfriend Vanessa made for him for his thirtieth birthday this past weekend. And while the cake definitely has competition for the title of "Most Metal Cake Ever Made" (What is it about Immortal that lends that particular band to [...]
Dope. Head snapping beat, nice hook and sweet lyrics. Hip-Hop collective Dujeous presents their latest album "Day In Day Out." Features include collaborations with Sharon Jones and Akir, as well as Immortal Technique. Dujeous: Twitter • Bandcamp • Facebook ~lork Tags: banging , beat , day , dope , dujeous , [...]
This week's skyscraping pile of awesome new heavy shit requires two shovels, so I woke Senior Editor Anso DF from his post-weekend coma to help me scoop-and-toss all this hot, stinky metal into your ears and eyes. You'll thank us. Just plug your nose and dive deep into a double-load of Shit That Comes Out Today right [...]
But there's a trapdoor in the sun...immortality... - Eddie Vedder, Pearl jam A beautiful track, Immortality has a place in the hearts of many. Dealing with the concept of suicide, many fans interperit the track to be about Cobain's death. Eddie Vedder, denies this, citing potential exploitation of Cobain's death. Hauntingly and pensive, Immortality's soft lyrics struck me deep. The track opens with "Vacate is the word...vengeance has no place on me or her//Cannot find the comfort in this world". Immortality - Pearl Jam
In the final part of his look at the Black Metal evolution over the past 20 years, today Tom Dare is examining the murkier and more indistinct realms of "post"-Black Metal band, as well as those bands who might've moved beyond the boundaries of Black Metal musically, still remain within the genre in spirit, at least.... 6) Post-Black Metal The post-black metal mob (aka, the sub-sub-genre where we shove bands we don't know how else to label [...]
As some of us intelligent people might know, there have got to be a few reasons why black metal weapons look so primitive and are being used as part of many a band's fashionable poses in black metal photo shoots. To cut a long and analytical lecture short, these reasons can be basically broken down ...
It's no secret that kittens and black metal go hand in hand on the internet, after all there is even an internet comic dedicated to the kvlt cuddly creatures. Perhaps it's their natural pizazz for corpse paint design, or because cats + anything = internet sensation (we're certainly not above posting about cute cats as ...
With Sunday just past marking the 20th anniversary of the release of Darkthrone's A Blaze In The Northern Sky (and therefore being pretty much the closest thing to a birthday that black metal can claim to have), over the coming week we're letting Tom Dare off the leash to run his mouth about one of metal's most controversial off-shoots. But instead of rehashing the same-old same-old tales from the genre's torrid history, we thought we'd get him to look at how the genre's evolved since those first, frosty releases two decades ago. Take it away, Mr. Dare... [...]
Today marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Darkthrone's seminal second album, A Blaze In The Northern Sky . As this pretty much makes today the closest thing to a birthday that black metal can claim to have (for the sake of clarity we'll ignore the first wave , yeah?), we're going to be marking the occasion in with a Slaylist seeped in old necro evil. Our selection contains cuts from the greatest Scandinavian (and Finnish, natch natch ) classics ever to sound [...]
OMG, my good friend Jessa Blavatsky has done it again. You may recall she made a delicious Metal Injection cake, and this awesome Death Cake too, and now her latest creation...Abbath cake! It looks pretty delicious, and I can attest, her cakes taste great too. Check out Slaytanicakes, and get yourself a slice. Immortal are ...
Our friend Jessa Blavatsky from SlaytaniCakes recently posted the below photo of an Immortal/Abbath cake she made on Facebook, and not only does it look delicious, but it's so DEAD ON, I just had to share it with you guys. I mean, it looks like it's MAD that it's about to get eaten. Too bad it was [...]
For me personally, Aura Noir is that band I always go back to and rock out in any circumstance or mood. In fact I probably have listened to them in literally every situation imaginable including weddings and funerals. In the past several years this band has not only solidified a spot in my heart as ...

And gimme your autograph!!! Oh, please, please, please, please, pretty pleeeeeeeeeeease?
The Immortals was de derde single die de Kings Of Leon uitbrachten van hun album Come Around Sundown. Dit album is de opvolger van het belachelijke succes Only By The Night (met de hits Sex On Fire en Use Somebody). Zelf heb ik Back Down South van het album nog wel op de radio gehoord, [...]
