Nearly a year ago I wondered aloud whether Roadrunner Records' reign as a premiere metal label had come to an end, only to eat my words a month later when they announced they'd signed two metal bands, Grand Magus and Baptized in Blood. Grand Magus are an established act with a long history, but Baptized [...]

You know we're teaming up with our bestest buds at Metal Injection and 1000Knives to put on a showcase at this year's CMJ Music Marathon, right? It's on Wednesday, October 20th at Club Europa in Brooklyn, and it's gonna be one of the best shows of the year. WE SHIT YOU NOT. Which is why we're [...]

Two things you can't take away from metal: it is truly a brotherhood, and a DIY community. And so, inspired by Nergal's recent battle against leukemia and his call for awareness of the need of bone marrow donors, our friend Rich Hall at 1000 Knives suggested to both us and our pals at Metal Injection [...]

Holy shit... is it really almost time for CMJ again? The ever shorter days, dimming sunlight and declining temperatures tell me that it is... but it's still kinda hard to believe summer has just about passed us by. Thankfully not all is bad in the forecast; there's a killer slate of fall metal tours on [...]

There have been a lot of names thrown around at certain members of Fear Factory. But one thing you cannot call the band is lazy.

But hey, who's complaining? If the success of every Nickelback and Theory of [...]

After the fracas that ensued following my post about the supposed non-metal future of Roadrunner Records, it would appear that Roadrunner Records hasn't given up on metal after all. In the past week they've announced two brand new metal signings, which would seemingly indicate that Roadrunner is going to try and forge ahead with metal [...]

MetalSucks Maniac "Thrashbuster" e-mailed us to say that Canada's Baptized in Blood announced at a show this past weekend that they are signing to Roadrunner. Assuming that this is true, an official announcement is supposed to come December 6. I have no confirmation on this from the band or the label, so take it as a [...]
