Anthrax's drummer will sit out yet another tour.

The skinsman's upcoming projects include his supergroup with Adam D. and Corpsegrinder!!!

Watch some videos of the dude if you don't know his work!

Has the nineteenth best drummer in modern metal left the band, or is he just sitting this trek out?

Listen to a recording of "Dead Horse" featuring the new frontwoman.

In 1996, after Van Halen split with Sammy Hagar but before they hired Gary Cherone as their very-temporary-new-singer, the band also auditioned Mitch Malloy for the gig, and now a video of his audition - specifically, singing the classic "Panama" - has found its way online. According to this interview, Malloy actually got the job, [...]

A Perfect Circle are practically non-existant at this point; they haven't released an album since 2004 and really not since 2003 ('042s eMotive was mostly covers), played less than thirty shows in 2011 after a extended hiatus, will only play one show in 2012, and have one show scheduled for 2013. And yet somehow, this is [...]

Nightwish and mumu-loving vocalist Anette Olzon have parted ways. For the time being, at least, Floor Jansen (above), who does not appear to favor mumus, will be singing with the band instead. This news means about as much to me as the death of ant, but in case you wanna read it, Nightwish's complete statement on [...]

Nearly a year after the untimely passing of Cory Smoot, a.k.a. Flattus Maximus, Gwar have unveiled their new guitarist: Pustulus Maximus (no relation They actually are related. My apologies! -AR). Maximus is said to have "a skin condition where his face and feet are covered in painful pustules that can only be soothed by the application of [...]

TesseracT have announced their new singer, their third in just over a year and approximately 16,000th in their history as a band. Dan Tompkins left in the summer of 2011 and was replaced by ex-Sky Eats Airplane vocalist Elliot Coleman shortly thereafter. Rumors started to percolate in June of this year that Coleman had already split, [...]

The Dillinger Escape Plan's new guitarist may be their old guitarist. In case you hadn't heard, Jeff Tuttle quit the band (on amicable terms) earlier this year; yesterday, Ben Weinman posted the above photo of himself and Benoit jamming on his his Facebook page, along with the hashtag "#dillingerescapeplan." Now, while this obviously isn't a 100% confirmation that Benoit [...]

Well, this blows: drummer Kerim “Krimh” Lechner has parted ways with Decapitated. Krimh is an incredible drummer, and was, at least in my not-so-humble opinion, a big part of the reason why both last year's Carnival is Forever and the subsequent tours behind that album were so powerful; the dude obviously had some huge shoes to [...]

I tried to pretend to care about all the recent Queensrÿche drama, but then I found a booger in my nose and picked it instead; I found that a much more satisfying use of my time than wondering whether or not Geoff Tate has a screw loose. (He does.) That being said, I also kind of [...]

The PRP says that Dirge Within have split with their singer, whose name is Jeremy something but goes by the nickname "Jerms." This is possibly the worst news I have ever heard, because there is a serious shortage of vocalists in the world of metal who a) are too fucking lazy to say a three-syllable [...]

Gorgoroth have fired vocalist Pest following Pest's decision to quit the band. Luckily for Gorgoroth fans, there is no shortage of vocalists who sound like croaking frogs in Norway, and so they have replaced him with not one but two separate singers, one for their upcoming tour and one for their upcoming album. A statement [...]

In case the news somehow escaped your attention, Mark Hunter has been the sole remaining original member of Chimaira for the entirety of 2012. And while so far the revamped version of the band has only toured, the obvious question on fans' minds is, "Will Hunter attempt to make a studio album and move forward [...]

According to a blog post published roughly three hours ago by Dillinger Escape Plan frontman Greg Puciato, longtime rhythm guitarist Jeff Tuttle has left The Dillinger Escape Plan. He'd been with the band for five years, which in DEP Years is basically a lifetime. Here's the post: A Message To DEP Guitarist Jeff Tuttle I’d like to [...]

We've always been fans of Peter Dolving's writing here at MetalSucks going back to the personal MySpace blogs he'd regularly post several years ago. Dolving is sharp, articulate, equal parts vitriolic and witty, and most importantly he's brutally honest about his feelings and doesn't hold back. His blogs are always great reads, especially considering English [...]

Reports of Made Out of Babies' demise have been greatly exaggerated. Unless you believe that Made Out of Babies cannot exist without Julie Christmas. We still don't know what led to Christmas' split from the band this past March, but Spin is reporting that the remaining three members have tapped newcomer Megan Tweed to front a [...]

When Warner Music shuttered Roadrunner's European office and laid off U.S. staff this Spring the names of those let go weren't made public. But today the label officially announced what many of us already knew: A&R guru Monte Conner has left the building. Conner worked for Roadrunner for 25 years. To say this is truly the end [...]
