After Leonard Cohen, my personal list of my musical heroes drops off dramatically. It's not like I have four or five songwriters I could substitute in the 1-1 through 1-5 spots. There is only one #1, Leonard Cohen. The rest of the pack runs a somewhat distant second. Jason Pierce is up there, as is [...]
I had to ask about the van. How could I not? The infamous eBay listing cropped up the very same day as my scheduled interview with Dale Crover. After quickly pointing out that the band "got rid of that thing a long time ago" and were in no way involved in this auction, the longtime [...]

THIS WEEK'S BEST BET: Cloud Nothings w/ A Classic Education, Gold-Bears Friday, February 17 The Earl - 466 Flat Shoals Avenue in Atlanta 30316 Admission $8 ADV / $10 DOS / Purchase Tickets After listening to Cloud Nothings' self-titled debut on Carpark and feeling unimpressed by Dylan Baldi's catchy but ultimately pedestrian bedroom recordings, that last thing I could have expected was the rousing, feedback and distortion-drenched Attack on Memory . Baldi's latest, Steve Albini-produced effort is a [...]

As the early days of 2012 rolled on by, Tony Reed, guitarist for both the heavy hitting, stoner-fied trio, Mos Generator, and the classic rock preservationists, Stone Axe, signed an endorsement deal with Lace Music Products. The good Mr. Reed now joins the likes of Scott "Wino" Weinrich (St. Vitus/Shrinebuilder), Matt Pike (Sleep/High On Fire), David Sullivan (Red Fang), Scott Kelly (Neurosis/Shrinebuilder), Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple/Rainbow), Eric Clapton, and a host of others who use the California-based companies pick-ups. When asked what is was that he liked about the Lace pickups, Tony Reed had this to say, "With [...]

No, Scott Kelly doesn't own a MetalSucks t-shirt (that we know of, anyway)... but reader Kieran M. does, and Kieran took a photo of himself in his MetalSucks t-shirt next to Scott Kelly after Neurosis' set at Maryland Deathfest this past May. Coolness by association. Thanks for the love, Kieran! The shirt Kieran is wearing [...]
Mastodon The Hunter Roadrunner Records 26 September 2011 by Hugh Platt The Hunter is simultaneously Mastodon's easiest record to throw yourself into, but perversely the hardest to pin down. Eschewing the concept-album framing-device the band have used since 2004, it shrugs off any attempts by reviewers to cling to any sense of ongoing narrative, or [...]
A veritable force within the pantheon of doom, the mighty YOB have recently unleashed their most focused album to date, Atma. Once again, they do not disappoint, offering the listener a soul-crushing, transcendental experience of balls-heavy doom/sludge. YOB possess that rare triple-threat quality of producing consistently excellent recordings, performing flawlessly live, and bringing forth an [...]
Mastodon have let us have it once more with the third taste of their upcoming album, The Hunter. Titled "Spectrelight" it's accompanied by a trippy kaleidoscope like video that was directed by Aaron Hymes. The track itself features Scott Kelly from Neurosis and you can enjoy it's riff filled goodness above. The Hunter is set to be released on the 27th of Spetember via Reprise Records. You can pre-order a fancy deluse-package of it over here . if you missed them previously, you can go check out " Curl Of The [...]
. . . Tattoos and metal are natural bedfellows. This is especially true in Neurosis' Scott Kelly. When he plays live, it's hard not to notice the spiderweb design that covers the top of his picking hand. Ouch! Etan Rosenbloom has done a fantastic interview with Kelly about tattoos here . An excerpt: I knew where I was going. I tattooed my hands when I was 15. I wasn't looking back. I knew what I was going to do - I was totally committed really early. Once [...]
And here's a great way to continue continuing your morning: fan-filmed footage of Shrinebuilder performing two new songs - "Let the Hell Come" at Scion Rock Fest back in March, and "Nagas 1&2," at the recent Roadburn festival. As was the case with that Neurosis footage we posted a little earlier, one of these clips [...]
I heard about, and then completely ignored, this photo album of Mastodon recording their new album. Why did I completely ignore it? Because I've seen bands record albums. It looks like dudes standing in a studio playing instruments. And unless you're dealing with a band who haven't recorded together in a very, very, very long [...]
Scott Kelly and WinoWhen: February 8, 2011Where: Emo's, Austin, TXWith: Ancient VVisdomBy Andrew Wilhelm (TX)When the opportunity to see two of the most respected names in underground metal – Scott "Wino" Weinrich of Saint Vitus, The Obsessed, and The Hidden Hand, and Scott Kelly of Neurosis, arises, you'd be daft to pass it up. On their recent tour, the two performed acoustically, which on the
I've been meaning to rave to you all about Wino's new acoustic album Adrift for some time, and this is the perfect excuse. It's not metal, but it was written and played by metal royalty... not like that should really matter much because it's excellent in its own right, but whatever gets you to check [...]

Photo gallery of Wino, Scott Kelly and Man's Gin at Mercury Lounge on Saturday, February 12, 2011. People familiar with performances by St. Vitus, Neurosis, Spirit Caravan or Shrinebuilder are used to triple-checking for their hearing protection prior to leaving the house, but Scott Weinrich and Scott Kelly went for the stripped-down approach for a short tour showcasing their songwriting and singing with just an acoustic guitar instead of a wall of amps and a floor full of distortion pedals. Wino showcased songs from his new LP Adrift, [...]
photos by Greg Cristman , words by BBG The Aquarian: What do you have coming out this year? Wino: ...Premonition, this band I've been working with for... Well, I've known the one guy for 20 years and we never did anything, finally decided to make a record. And they liked the demos, so they said they'd put it out. We did a single, and we're right in the process right now of [...]
