There was no act louder than Godflesh at Damnation Festival 2011. Even with ear protection, we didn't dare approach the front of the Jägermeister stage, in case the industrial pioneers shattered every bone in our inner ear. How Gary Wolstenholme go close enough to get these snaps and escape with his eardrums unruptured we'll never know. [...]
Lets look at the facts. Ministry's - The Land of Rape & Honey came out 23 years ago today. The governmant has given away trillions of dollars to the banks. So much so they might as well had given each of US born Americans 50 thousand each. We'll never see it and somehow we'll be paying for that as the dept grows day by day. Billion and billions. That's sort of like rape or the gift that keeps giving - ain't it? The best part about industrial music is that it's relentless. There is a punishment. A Pounding drive your [...]
I'm an irresponsible jerk who is way behind on my RSS reading, so I didn't get to The Deciblog's new interview with one mister Justin Broadrick until today. And fuck me naked with a spoon, because if I had gotten to it sooner, I would have been aware of this part of the chat: Have [...]
It's been a bit of a slow news day, but thankfully Damnation Festival have come to rescue by announcing the final seven bands of their 2011 line-up, chief among them being Grand Magus. Joining the Swedish metal outift in he final brace of bands to be added to the bill are Cerebral Bore, Conan, A Forest Of Stars, Humanfly, Talons, [...]
Unlike those spoiled Europeans, America does not currently have an abundance of awesome annual metal festivals; there's Maryland Deathfest, New England Metal and Hardcore Fest, and I guess Scion Rock Fest, although that one changes locations every year so I dunno if it counts, even if they've done a great job putting together a killer [...]
Seminal industrial band Godflesh have only played a handful of shows since reuniting in 2009, none of them in America. But all that changes in 2012, as the promoters of the Maryland Deathfest have announce the blockbuster booking of this band for next year's festival, which happens during Memorial Day weekend. Things will get extra ...
News Reformed industrial metal pioneers GODFLESH will make an exclusive North American appearance at the Maryland Deathfest X festival, set to take place May 24-27, 2012 at Sonar in Baltimore.
Tombs' Path Of Totality topped my list of the Top 26 Metal Albums Of 2011 So Far . I was curious what sort of personal soundtrack went into that muscular, violent, surprisingly delicate and detailed blend of New York noise-rock, black metal, and industrialized blast-beat shoegaze, so I asked them to make a related mix. Before you listen, take a look at vocalist/guitarist/band leader Mike Hill's thoughts on his appropriately dark, punk, and very heavy inspiration playlist. He offers insightful background for fans of the album/trio, but even if you're not into Tombs, [...]
When Godflesh and Goatsnake announced a one-off gig in Kentish Town, no amount of partying at Download Festival would stop us witnessing some super heaviness.
Tombs combine black metal fury with ethereal gothic textures on their sophomore release.
Bloody Hell, Damnation Festival have only gone and snuck out three very interesting line-up additions last night while we were off grilling Download Festival's head-honcho, Andy Copping (which you'll get to see next week). Godflesh, God Is An Astronaut and Altar of Plagues? Damnation Festival, you're spoiling us! First up, full respect must go out [...]
As you probably know by now, Jucifer live on the road - literally! A truly mobile unit, the savage sludge metal duo are North American nomads who rest their head nightly in the same RV that gets them from show to show. So I was surprised to learn that Jucifer were crossing the pond for [...]
Hey dudes and ladies, sorry I haven't been posting much this month. I've been travelingeven more than usual, and haven't had much time to sit down and write down much of anything besides flight confirmation numbers and directions to wherever I happen to be sleeping any given evening. Cheers once again to those of you [...]
There's nothing I shouldn't like about 13492s latest album, Demonoir: it's the band at blazing black-metal-at-grindcore-speed again, and its experimental parts feel appropriate, even necessary. But something feels about it hollow: the flesh, bones, and organs are all there, but is there any soul (even a black one) beneath them? How could an album with [...]
When I look back at the last twenty years, there is perhaps no more important musical entity in my life than England's EARACHE RECORDS (srs). Back when I was a little kid on a quest to find the fastest, most cock-smashingly brutal music I could get my hands on, I stumbled across a copy of [...]
Totally went off last night at Nate's birthday party. There was a gnarly stripper in a LOST replica DHARMA Initiative jumpsuit, way too much Flip Cup, a 4:00am Dance Dance Revolution competition, and the cops only showed up twice investigating noise complaints! I'd say we successfully dragged the birthday boy into the first hours of his 27th year with style. So, I'm gonna get some rest. How's about a mix tape for you. RULES for uninitiated noobs : I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods [...]
Justin Broadrick, is a modern day rennisance man. He was a big part of early Napalm Death, and later of course Godflesh and Jesu among many other acts. Recently, he was interviewed by New York radio station WFMU, which now posted the 3-hour marathon podcast, featuring a convo with the dude as well as music ...
Hanukkah starts tomorrow!!! I can't believe it's time for dreidels and latkes again already. I got Vince a present. It's socks. Shhh, don't spoil the surprise. To celebrate the Festival of Lights, we're gonna be on the Metal Injection Livecast! Both of us! At once! Again! You'll be able to listen to us talk about, [...]
Earlier today, I downloaded Earache's new, completely free Extreme Stage Diving app, a video game in which "you take control of a burly bouncer and throw the pesky stage invader as far into the crowd as possible." And I'm happy to report that it's going to make an excellent time waster (that's a compliment), and [...]
