One of our readers, Dan Toth, has started a Facebook page to help keep moshing legal in Boston. I don't know what, if anything, a Facebook page can do about the situation, but I do know that Dan is looking to organize. So "like" his Facebook page, and if you have any ideas for ways [...]

First, a little backstory. Back in 2006, Darkest Hour was making the promotional rounds for their latest disc, Undoing Ruin. I was working for my shitty college paper, doing a show preview for DH's show in Omaha, Nebraska and emailed Kris requesting an interview. He called me five minutes after I sent the email. That's [...]

This is just me, but I attend Darkest Hour shows mostly to make goo-goo eyes at guitarist Mike Schleibaum, fellow devotée of my boner band The Crown (and The Cars). That's my M.O. no judgements please. Still I was bummed when sweet drummer Ryan Parrish announced his departure from DH late last year. But dude [...]

I love fun so I read Sergeant D.'s site Stuff You Will Hate and his MetalSucks column Green Eggs And Slam for the laughs (ask my 310 dudes re: my overuse of D.-isms "Please... Be Safe" and "That's it I'm coming up there"). But the bonus has been this shocking amount of killer macho veincore jamz [...]

Moments ago, Sumerian Records posted the above video on their Facebook page, saying "Yes, this is REAL and yes there have already been two episode tapings of two different Sumerian bands. This isn't Reality TV.. This is REAL TV." The video just features The Ultimate Warrior cutting a classic Warrior-style semi-coherent promo telling a bunch ...

Banner Designed by Cysquatch Welcome to "Question of the Week," a (not really at all) weekly debate amongst the MetalSucks staff regarding a recent hot button issue. Inspired by the ongoing disaster that is Lou Reed & Metallica's Lulu, this week we asked our writers: BESIDES METALLICA AND LOU REED, WHAT IS THE WORST COLLABORATION [...]

This should be interesting. The Ultimate Warrior (yeah, the pro wrestler) will be appearing ON STAGE with Winds of Plague at their Halloween night show (October 31st) at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, CA. Warrior will be performing his spoken word intro "The Warrior's Code" which appears on the band's latest album, Against The World. ...

The line-up for this year's edition of the annual Thrash and Burn tour has been announced, and it's terrible; so terrible that I don't even have any witty way of expressing it's terribleness. So I'm not here to make more jokes at the expense of some deathcore bands; I hope they all have fun on [...]

Against The World is the fourth studio album from Winds Of Plague. Winds Of Plague are a Symphonic Deathcore band out of Upland, California. You may remember Winds Of Plague's past albums, Decimate The Weak and The Great Stone War. Against The World is seemingly the album that's going to push them to the top of the Deathcore scene. "Drop The Match" is the 3rd track off Against The World and the first track to catch my attention. Pretty standard crunchy guitar and death vocality. I have always liked the simplicity yet catch lyrical content from [...]

Ask 100 people their definition of deathcore, and you'll get 101 answers, each different than the last. But the truth is that deathcore is actually really easy to define: it's mallcore kids trying to play death metal, and try as they might, they will never quite get it right. Although that sounds like a criticism, [...]
