Actually, [...]
This weekend is the Oscars! Don't care? Of course you don't! The two videos above are better than most of the nominated films they're parodying! So while none of us wait to see who wins the world's most expensive door stop, why not review some of the fun shit we did this week on MetalSucks? [...]
I think we're gonna have to fire Dummy Nosenothing, 'cause that fartknocker knows not of what he speaks. France's Outcast are, in fact, a curious beast. It'd be easy to pin them down as the latest in a neverending string of Meshuggah worshippers, and while these guys surely do love Meshuggah (as they should!) there's [...]
Everyone's always complainin' about how Roadrunner doesn't sign metal bands anymore, but that's a crock - I mean, they just released the new Korn album, fer Chrissakes!!! What people should be really pissed about is that Listenable Records has just totally sold out by signing Outcast!!!! I mean WHAT THE HELL?!?! Why would the label [...]
Motherfucker had it right in 1964- and nothing's changed. Chimes Of Freedom Far between sundown's finish an' midnight's broken toll We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight An' for each an' ev'ry underdog soldier in the night An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing In the [...]
Over the long weekend, I seized on the opportunity to snag a copy of Trapped Under Ice's sophomore effort Big Kiss Goodnight at their New York City release party. The record, stuffed with beefy riffs and instantly memorable hooks, quickly found its way into heavy rotation in my home. But what kind of guy would [...]
Bergen-based Norwegian death-thrash - that's how Hellish Outcast were first described to us. And to be honest, as far as opening descriptions go, "Bergen-based Norwegian death-thrash" is a damn effective way of attracting our attention in five words or less.

News HELLISH OUTCAST has debuted two tracks from its upcoming album, "Your God Will Bleed".

I've been told that when my blog covers rappers, I like to write about conceptual and stylistically different rappers from the rest of the pack. And some people are so thankful to be able to have a media outlet that documents the rising, underground scene of Richmond music, they reach out to me to let me know about their own musical happenings such as today's post with hip hop act Young Richmond Outcasts . Hailing from Richmond, Virginia (Cap City), the group's members, ChiChi the Kid, Heirborne, Mike Ezie, Jaesen [...]

I was reading dilated choonz the other day and The Double K had a post on Beaumont Hannant. He produced wonderful electronica in the early 1990s (see previous post here ). But then suddenly went off to form Outcast with Richard Brown and produced more indie pop-type music. Outcast didn't lastvery long but it reminded me that I found a 12" of theirs. From 1996 single "Rollercoaster": Outcast - Rollercoaster (Good For Horses Mix) Outcast - Rollercoaster (Original Mix) Buy [...]
