Hevy Festival has announced its first fifteen bands for 2012 - they are Converge, Will Haven, Protest The Hero, Deaf Havana, Verse, The Chariot, A Wilhelm Scream, Deez Nuts, Set Your Goals, Trapped Under Ice, Pianos Become The Teeth, Balance and Composure, Sharks, Last Witness, and Crocus. Sweeeeeeet. When we went to Hevy last year, we were inspired by the close proximity of Port Lympne Wild Animal Park to ask Greg Puciato about Jurassic Park. As you do. If you haven't seen it already, check out the video: [...]
If you still have any doubts that being in a band is for losers, watch Why You Do This, the documentary by Car Bomb's Michael Dafferner. It is a cold, hard bitch slap of reality. Including interviews with Richard Christy, Randy Blythe, Joe Duplantier, Ben Falgoust, and a bunch of other cool dudes, Why You Do This premiered [...]

The Chariot - David De La Hoz from Lukas W. Hodge on Vimeo . Astute readers will note this isn't The Chariot's first video for "David De La Hoz" . This new take on the epic brawler off of last year's Long Live seems more like a promotional production, featuring the bands' chaotic live show for their current run on tour with Listener who is also featured in the song.
Last Thursday, The Chariot had a little incident with security during their show at the Chameleon Club in Lancaster, PA, which caused them to get thrown out of the venue during their set. Video of the incident has finally surfaced on YouTube; Guitarist Stephen Harrison recounted the incident on his Twitter: "Kicked out of the venue. ...

The Chariot will be touring North American this fall with support from Vanna , The Crimson Armada, Former Thieves and Listener. Click below to see the dates.
The Chariot rule live! They come from that same school of punk rock stage shows as bands like Dillinger Escape Plan and Norma Jean, yet bring their own fury to the live show. I just remember seeing these guys with my jaw dropped multiple times at the visceral power they were giving off. It's always ...
In case your fall wasn't already action-packed with awesome tours, The Chariot have announced a U.S. headlining run, which will start in November. Support will come from Vanna, The Crimson Armada, Former Thieves, and Listener, four bands I can't really say anything about. But I can reiterate the message in my headline: Go see The Chariot, go see The [...]

The weekend is here! Why not get it started right with some new tunes? Trivium released two different new tracks today, and I feel if you dig them you will like their upcoming album, In Waves, and if not, this album may not be for you. So here is "Black": And here is "Built To ...

Air Drops is a 20 year-old, electronic-chill-wave producer, who's identity largely remains a mystery. Here's what we could dig up. With influences such as Brian Eno, DJ Premier and Panda Bear, Air Drops recently released a seven-track EP venturing into an eclectic genre of electronica bridged from his roots where he "started out making hip-hop beats." "Champion Chariot" is an easy favorite that will lure your ears to the speaker, with your hips to surely follow. It sounds like a mash of Pogo 's Alice in Wonderland remix and an anxious The Go! Team with [...]

The Chariot's last video, for "David De La Hoz" (watch it and read Vince's discussion with vocalist Josh Scogin about its creation here) was so awesome that whatever clip the band released next, it was bound to be disappointing. So I'm willing to cut them some slack on their new video, "Evan Perks." It's basically [...]
