Nooit voelde ik me ergens zo thuis als hier. In dit land. In deze stad. In deze straat. In dit huis. Met jou. Of het moet onderweg geweest zijn. Want het leven is altijd in beweging. Weg van wat je achter wilt laten. Zoekend naar waar je liever zou willen zijn. Weg van alles wat was en op zoek naar alles wat nog moet worden. Maar aan alles komt een eind. Dus ook aan thuiskomen. En dat schuurt. Het is het schuren van het onvermijdelijke. Elk einde is onvermijdelijk. En elk einde [...]
This week, Raz and Hugh tackle the somewhat-thorny subject of the role record labels have to play in the modern metal scene. From Warner Bros. Roadrunner Records cull, to Hydra Head's decision to close, through to Century Media's digital litigationathon and the power of modern micro-labels, we've gone at it from all angles. We also throw out some brief reaction to the news of Slipknot being booked as the third and final headliner for Download Festival 2013. And in closing, Hugh threatened to kick a child in a canal. [...]

Last week we told you about Vice/Marshall's third series of On The Road was about Jesse Hughes from the Eagles of Death Metal investigating the dark history of Black Sabbath and the very roots of heavy metal - well, today's the day that the first episode makes its way online. You can (and should) check it out after the jump. Episode 1 sees Jesse still in Los Angeles, where he catches up with Bill Ward - founder member of Black Sabbath, and all-round metal hero - to discuss what the early days were like [...]
Swedish heavy metal act Wolf will be headlining the third season of the Harley Rock Riders concert series. The concert will be held on November 24 this year at Clark's Exotica (where Lamb Of God performed ) in Bangalore. There are no other details about the concert or who it will feature but attendees can expect a full-blown lineup featuring some of India's biggest rock and metal acts, considering the lineups of previous concerts . Harley Rock Riders will also be visiting the North-East this year, with two concerts in Guwahati and Shillong [...]

I was discussing dnb with Slighter (Colin C) and my preference to the High Contrast end of things. He's more into a harder, almost neo-industrial sound. He recommended Brazil's Zardonic. Free download. Much of Zardonic's work has too much guitar for my 4/4 tastes. But this remix of Metallica makes the guitars appropriate and isn't terribly dnb. If you don't like heavy metal this wont convert you but if you do like heavy metal this might intrigue you. Metallica - And Justice For All (Zardonic Remix) Here's an example [...]
We've told you about Vice/Marshall's On The Road series and why you need it in your life before - well, it's back for a third series, and this time Jesse Hughes from the Eagles of Death Metal is going back to the very roots of heavy metal and heading out on a pilgrimage to uncover the dirty roots of the band that arguably started it all: Black Sabbath. Rather than insult your intelligence by re-writing the press blah-blah that Vice sent us and passing it off as our own work, here's the synopsis of [...]
"Not even Kill 'Em All?!?!" Rolling Drone recently held a readers' poll on the ten greatest metal albums of all time; the resulting list consists of four of the first five Metallica albums, the first two Sabbath albums, Slayer's Reign in Blood, Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction, and Led Zeppelin II. Which makes perfect sense, [...]

Cauldron Tomorrow's Lost Earache 08 October 2012 by David Keevill Earache’s recent tendencies to parley with bands of a retrospective focus has now become a major part of their raison d’etre. From the magnificent muddy river blues rock of Rival Sons through to the deft traditional metal leanings of Savage Messiah, this is a label who’ve spearheaded a [...]

Pandora's Piñata has been one of the most difficult albums that I’ve ever had to review. On one hand, I could simply say, ‘You just have to sit down and listen.’ But, that doesn’t do this record any justice. There aren’t enough words to describe the album, but then again, sometimes less is better. Conundrum. Pandora's Piñata is a God damn conundrum. But in all the good ways. Diablo Swing Orchestra is a band that, intentionally or unintentionally, [...]

Heavy Metal: A Headbanger's Journal, recoge el viaje de un antropólogo y metalero intentando entender el fenómeno del Heavy Metal. No importa si se trata del metal clásico de Iron Maiden o el extreme metal o thrash de Sepultura, la película va hasta las raíces de lo que alguna vez el director vivió como "la música más popular del mundo", la cual sigue agitando cabezas - literal y metafóricamente.

... "Rob Halford rules, man!" is a statement that has been uttered by many a jean vest-wearing metalhead since the mid-seventies, and this one has no hesitation about saying it in 2012. Listening to Screaming For Vengeance , it's clear that the heavy-level riffage, piercing vocals, and suggestive lyrics wrote the blueprint for virtually all of the 80's metal that would follow in its path. The 30th anniversary edition of Screaming for Vengeance will be released on September 3rd, and features not just the remastered original album and bonus tracks, but also a live [...]
What is Iron Fist magazine ? Well, the short answer is that it's the brand spanking new metal magazine for die-hard metallers, coming at you from September 2012. The long answer is what you'll get when you listen to our interview with Louise Brown, head-honcho of Iron Fist (and former editor of Terrorizer to boot), which Hugh semi-drunkenly conducted with her about this new project after cornering her at Bloodstock Open Air 2012.. This is the first of two supplementary podcasts this week - both of which we've already [...]

I Black Sabbath rappresentano il lato oscuro del rock: quello invischiato con la morte, l'occultismo, il gotico letterario, i miti del fantastico e un nichilismo esasperato. Parte da qui la gustosa analisi dei testi della band inglese commentati da Eduardo Vitolo nel libro "Black Sabbath: Neon Knights" (Arcana, Collana Txt - 16,50 euro - 240 pp.). Un viaggio nel mondo del quartetto di Birmingham con il suo immaginario orrorifico e dark che verrà assimilato e decodificato nel tempo da una legione sterminata di gruppi e artisti sia della scena heavy metal sia gothic dark. [...]
A couple of notable pieces have recently surfaced that challenge the assertion that Africa doesn't have much in the way of its own metal bands: Vice's fascinating feature on Botswana's Cowboy Metalheads and Ian Christe's post for Noisecreep highlighting seven notable African metal bands. OK, so Africa is an absolutely gigantic continent and those two stories [...]
Is President Obama staging acts of gun violence in America? Before I even allow that to sit as a rhetorical question, I’m going to answer ‘no’ for everyone. However, fans of classic metal band Megadeth might answer the same question with ‘possibly’ or even ‘yes’. Why? Well, at a recent concert in Singapore [...]
Rocking the Night Away by WITCH CROSS Here's a bit of heavy metal from a rock band time forgot: Witch Cross. The Danish group didn't have a lot of releases in their heyday, but what they did put out was pretty tight, anthemic, and catchy. The label Hell's Headbangers is putting out an anthology release for the band, featuring 3 CDs and 1 DVD. "Rocking the Night Away" comes off the compilation, and has a nice vintage flavor to it. The guitar riffs hit a nice groove, and Alex "Savage" Nyborg Madsen's vocals pierce [...]

. . . As with previous HMB subject Craig Taborn , drummer Damión Reid doesn't wear his metal fandom on his sleeve. Jazz fans know Reid as a deadly technician, whose crisp, busy, furiously grooving style perfectly complements the high-tech prog-funk aesthetic of bandleaders such as Steve Coleman, Rudresh Mahanthappa, and Steve Lehman. His playing often heats up to an aggressive boil, but it might make you think of cutting-edge electronica before metal. So I was intrigued when a friend tipped me off to Reid's love of heavy music. We met up in May for a wide-ranging [...]
MUSIC NEWS -Reuniting for the first time since their collaboration on Black Sabbath’s 1983 Born Again album, Deep Purple´s Ian Gillan and Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi took everybody by surprise in 2011 when they released the charity singles: “Out Of...
