The mythical origin of Oakland, California's Saviours goes like this: One night four metal dudes were sitting in a basement at the points of a pentagram drawn on the floor, with a goat's head making up the fifth point, and surrounded by candles. They were listening to Black Sabbath—backwards, of course—and passed a calfskin of goat's blood between them. It was on this same night years ago, and at a similarly grim seance when Jimmy Page first summoned the dark demons responsible for bringing heavy metal to our earthly plane, and the same incantation Metallica spoke before they kicked [...]
Sandwiched conventiently between this dude (good) and these winners (skip bad to ugly), there is metal. Perhaps not in festival form, but metal nonetheless. And I, being an indoor kid, appreciate that.American symphonic black metallurgists Abigail Williams (dude from Emperor played drums on their first record!) crash the Pearl Room in Mokena on Thursday, and I'd be lying if I said I knew where

All members, save drummer Derrick "Mullet Chad" Nau, stand more than six feet tall, have long hair and magnificent facial hair. They head-bang in unison and beat their chests
While everyone else was busy lauding High on Fire as the next Motörhead, we here at the 'cake knew that distinction really belonged to those other Oakland raiders, Saviours. Their brand of four-on-the-floor, balls-to-the-wall gallop always struck us as a true claim to that White Line Fever throne. Saviours have kept a relatively low profile since early 2008's Into Abaddon, but that all changes
by Van Damned (ATX)Along the Interstate 35 corridor in central Texas, curious, new gas stations are popping up as quickly as construction allows. This new breed of convenience store features all the usual amenities of six-lane, long-haul truckstops: gasoline, diesel, clean(ish) toilets, candy, soda, coffee, etc... but adds fast food to the mix. And not just a single-counter Subway or Wendy's. No,

Vi avevamo già parlato , all'interno della rubrica " I Tesori Nascosti ", dei Dredg , gruppo californiano attivo già da una quindicina d'anni e capace di costruire una grande carriera che ha raggiunto l'apice nel 2002 con l'album "El Cielo", un vero capolavoro. Era da un po' di tempo che non si avevano notizie su di loro: se escludiamo il disco live "Live at the Fillmore" del 2006, il loro ultimo album, "Catch Without Arms", risale a quattro anni fa. Ora stanno per tornare e lo faranno con "The Pariah, the Parrot, the Delusion" che [...]
The songs of London trio Invasion might be short, but they definitely ain't sweet - wizard robes and monster riffs, delivered in sub-two minute psyche-rock nuggets. We put guitarist, Marek Steven, through the Future Hits treatment. How did you meet? Myself and our drummer Zel were already playing some of the same tunes together with a different singer from early 2006. She was good singer but 'difficult', and when she moved to New York we played a couple of instrumental shows to see what [...]
These days, waiting 4 years between albums is basically the equivalent to a lifetime, and maybe that's why it seems like Dredg basically disappeared from the face of the earth after they releaseed 2005's Catch Without Arms . The growth that Dredg showed from their earlier releases to CWA was something quite remarkable (which may be why I didn't appreciate it as much upon its initial release), and given 4 more years of growth, one couldn't be very sure what to expect from Dredg's forthcoming album The Pariah, the Parrot, the Delusion . Well, [...]
True fans of experimental rock band, dredg, are not looking for El Cielo Part 2, or even Catch Without Arms Part 2. What admirers of the band want is an evolution in sound and a return to the creative energy that made them fall in love with the band in the first place. That is exactly what they got with Saviour , the first officially released song from dredg 's fourth album, The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion . For dredg tour dates click here . [...]
Alt-country superstar Ryan Adams revealed his love of metal in a recent NY Times piece published this past weekend, in which he shared with writer Winter Miller what's been making the rounds on his playlist lately. "Metal gets a bad rap, that it's just satanic or screaming, but sometimes it's really just pop songs [...]

SAVIOURS ( MySpace ) Where/When : 9 p.m. Friday, October 3, Bluebird Playing With: ((Thorlock)), Holy Python Sounds Like: "The band's 2006 debut album, Crucifire boasted all the essential elements of quality heavy noise. Of course, there were the riffs — pounding, but still fast enough to almost be punky, with the blunt force of a "new wave of British heavy metal" outfit like Motörhead. It didn't dovetail neatly with anything in either the punk-offshoot rock scenes or with the purist metal [...]

by crustcake gerf (NYC) Minutes after last week's 'Flick Friday' went live Headbanger's Blog premiered the new (and first) video from Oakland, CA's Saviours . A tip o' the hat to all involved for allowing the video to run the full length of the song (five minutes and forty eight seconds, to be exact). Much like the song itself, the video for "Narcotic Sea" (directed by Dante Della Maggiore) is all over the place. From trippy Tron-evoking digital grids to epic landscape shots to straight up performance [...]
