As sponsors of the No Mercy Metal Showcase I've had the pleasure of catching several great new acts sling their brand of metal through out the tri-state area. I unfortunately couldn't make this month's showcase, but the reason I'm kicking my own ass is because I missed Angel Vivaldi live. If you're unfamiliar with the ...

• Angel Vivaldi - A MARTIAN WINTER

A guy on Vimeo posted the entire set of Wolves in the Throne Room from last Tuesday's show in NYC at The Bell House. If you haven't had the chance to see this band live, go fucking see this band. We reviewed their latest album, titled Celestial Lineage, last week, and gave it an 8/10 ...

This past Sunday, Noa, Frank, Sean and I made our way to the Music Hall of Williamsburg to watch the Dillinger Escape Plan perform a headlining gig. I have probably seen this band close to 20 times, and everytime I think they won't be able to top the previous show, they just go ahead and ...

By Ben Apatoff Like most fanatical music dorks, I spend the holiday season listening to my favorite records of the year, in vain hopes of creating the impeccable top ten list. High in rotation right now is BLIND GUARDIAN's At the Edge of Time, which I gained a drastic new appreciation for after seeing Germany's ...

Don't you love going to local shows and finding amazing bands? This happened to me over the weekend, when I went to a loft party and discovered a (presumably) Mexican grind band named Elote 5. We didn't understand why the 5, since this was only a three-piece. But we stopped asking questions as soon as ...

Meet new Hard Rock band Diamondsnake, a collective group of zany individuals you probably wouldn't expect to rock your world. Comprised of Metal Injection's Dave Hill (aka The King Of Metal), Moby (yeah, THAT guy!), Phil Costello (of the very awesome Tradgey: All Metal Tribute to the Bee Gees) and Chris "Tomato" Harfenist (the curator ...

by: Frank Godla As sponsors of the No Mercy Metal Showcase series here in NYC, Rob and I caught a number of great bands last Thursday for the inaugural event at Crash Mansion. One band in particular caught our eye at the show: Resolution 15, a unique and equally dynamic band that is sure to ...

by: Frank Godla This past Wednesday night I was faced with a dilemma that surprisingly doesn't happen often: two great shows in the same city going down at the same exact time. On one hand, NYC saw the return of reunited Gorguts, which is an epic no-brainer for some. However I'm glad I didn't attend, because ...

by: Rob Pasbani I don't know how I missed this before, but holy fuck - if you are a fan of noisy metal and hardcore and fun times, do I have a tour for you! NORMA JEAN is heading out on their first headlining tour in a year. They have handpicked a roster of openers that [...]

Ever since TRENT REZNOR indicated that NINE INCH NAILS are taking a break after their current run of U.S. shows, the media has been yipping about the man who forced industrial music onto the radio, defied MTV with his videos and politics, thrust JOHNNY CASH and DAVID BOWIE back into the spotlight, infuriated labels and [...]

Oh fuck yes! One of the biggest shows of the summer (in NY at least) is happening this Friday night with the epic beginning of the Blackened Music Series which will feature REPULSION playing their Decibel Hall of Fame record Horrified in its entirety, plus PIG motherfucking DESTORYER and BRUTAL TRUTH. We really don't need [...]

Well, this is awesome! GOJIRA of course is booked to do a bunch of dates on METALLICA's upcoming Fall tour. Being the rock gods that they are, 'tallica is only playing 3 dates in a row and then taking a week off at a time. A band like GOJIRA can't afford that sort of luxury [...]

We have said it before, and I'll say it again right here: YOU NEED TO SEE THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN. Sure, we have a crapload of live clips, but it really doesn't do the chaos this band brings any justice. The band has lined up US dates and some European dates to hype themselves up [...]

Oh my fucking Buddah! MASTODON absolutely destroyed the Music Hall of Williamsburg last night. Their 90 minute set started with the band plowing through their most recent prog-opus, Crack The Skye from beginning to end as advertised, and then played an additional 40 minutes of old classics in reverse-chronological order starting with tracks off Blood [...]

• Mastodon - March Of The Fire Ants

Above you will find a making of video that the post-metal titans that go by the name ISIS have released unto the wilderness, for it is an ambient reflection of the smooth melodies and sheer awesomeness the band's upcoming CD, Wavering Radiant emotes. On the reals though, we love this band! Very chill. Tour dates [...]

Prepare for the imminent destruction of the cities listed below. That's right, after spending the past few stateside runs opening for LAMB OF GOD, BEHEMOTH and IN FLAMES, it looks like there's no one left willing to follow GOJIRA onstage. Metal's former best-kept-secret is finally taking the headlining jaunt that they've long deserved, and if [...]

OMFG! This is a tour not two miss. Two bands on the cusp of being really huge, really pushing the boundaries of just how awesome metal could be. WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM and KRALLICE, two bands all your friends will soon be talking about are going on tour together!. Don't miss these shows: May 13 [...]

In what will stand as one of the year's best tour packages, SOILWORK, DARKANE, WARBRINGER and SWALLOW THE SUN invaded the Highline Ballroom for a post-St. Valentine's Day asskicker, an excuse to blitz area headbangers with an overdose of melodic death metal and treat to those of us who didn't have to get up early [...]

Last night, the entire Metal Injection crew came out for what may end up being the biggest show of 2009: Meshuggah, Cynic and The Faceless. It was truly place to be. Spotted in the crowd were members of GOD FORBID, A LIFE ONCE LOST and SUICIDE SILENCE. Everybody was there to see this killer lineup. [...]

What you see above is the Dillinger Escape Plan playing a cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Wish" which was the last song of an evening of epic head banging. From openers Caverns and Knife the Glitter it was clear this would be a tech-heavy night. Both openers were instrumental acts, but Knife the Glitter came [...]
