Eyal weighs the pros and cons of a formal education.

Last week it was revealed that The Black Dahlia Murder have parted ways with bassist Ryan "Bart" Williams and replaced him with Max Lavelle (ex-Despised Icon); now the band has released an official statement on the matter, and not only was the split was amicable (Williams apparently left the band "to pursue a career in [...]

It's always fun to go back and look at stuff that future-heavy hitters did when they were just getting started - and I hope aspiring musicians find it inspiring, too. 'Cause it just goes to show ya that no one comes out of the womb a fully-formed artist. So you may enjoy the below - [...]

Job For A Cowboy Demonocracy Metal Blade 10 April 2012 by Tom Dare Job For A Cowboy have had something of a rough ride from Thrash Hits for a couple of years. Hugh wasn't a fan of last album Ruination , and I gave the last EP Gloom a minor kicking. That might make you think they're a band we've got something against. We don't – far from it. [...]

At least here in New York, we are now experiencing full-on the-sun-never-comes-out-and-it 's-cold-as-fuck weather - y'know, in case we somehow failed to realize that it's October. Luckily, we have two terrific records with uplifting, happy-go-lucky titles to stream this morning, so that should perk you right the fuck up. Cold Winds on Timless Days, the sophomore [...]

We've already gotten some good entries for our Charred Walls of the Damned/Photoshop Richard Christy contest, but I'm still waiting for one that makes me laugh so hard I wet myself. There's still time for you to enter - the deadline is October 11 - so I'm hoping that there are plenty of you just [...]

As we've said multiple times in the past few weeks, Cold Winds on Timeless Days, the sophomore effort from Richard Christy's Charred Walls of the Damned, friggin' KILLS. This supergroup which is actually super - it also features Tim "Ripper" Owens on vocals, Jason Suecof on guitars, and Steve DiGiorgio on bass - have made an album [...]

Charred Walls of the Damned are a rarity in the metal world - a supergroup that's actually super. And because I'm a big dumb idiot, I didn't really get that into their eponymous debut last year; but now that I've heard their sophomore effort, Cold Winds on Timeless Days, I know I'm a big dumb idiot, [...]

Job for a Cowboy's first EP was called Doom, and their new EP is called Gloom, and, obviously, when you put those things together, you get... well, y'know. But it's not all doom n' gloom for JFAC - quite the contrary, in fact. It's fitting that they're re-introducing themselves into the world with another EP [...]

I know this isn't realistic in today's economic climate, but, no joke, everyone at Metal Blade deserves a bonus. On May 10, they're release Hate Eternal's orgasm-inducing Phoenix Amongst the Flames; then, less than two months later, on June 21, they'll release Ritual, the new album from The Black Dahlia Murder. And at that point, they'll [...]

Click Here To Watch The Video I love interviews with producers and mixers. They're the dudes behind the scenes who are rarely talked about or given much credit but whose skills and personality are SO important to the sound of the records we love... and those we hate too. In January we got a "behind [...]

See what I did there? ANYWAY, I'm sitting here listening to said new DevilDriver song (which is available for download here for the low low cost of giving up your e-mail address' cherry) for the second time now, my thought is basically this: it's a good song, and I wonder if anyone besides the DevilDriver [...]

Jason Suecof is a musical genius, there is no doubt in my mind. The man produced many of the biggest metal records of the last few years, and is no slouch himselfs in terms of metal releases, putting out the ultra-brutal Capharnaum (featuring a young Matt Heavy on vocals screaming his heart out). But my ...

Jason Suecof is a genius. I don't mean that in the metaphorical way; he really must be one the smartest guys in all of metal. I remember the "making of" documentary DVD packaged with some album he produced a few years back [Chimaira, I think] in which he picked up a guitar and started ad-libbing [...]

Axl and Vince have proclaimed "music is worthless" many amounts of times. Stating that music is worthless is a bold point. Honestly, I'm surprised the dudes haven't come under more scrutiny for saying such a thing. It is a VERY bold statement. Every single time I see this statement written on the site I have [...]

I’ve always hated top-whatever lists. Best guitarist, best band, best blowjob, best double anal with a horse, whatever. I think that those lists are pretty much all slanted by politics, or bought and paid for. I first got that idea in my head when Titanic won as many Oscars as it did. There were so [...]

I’ll admit it: I still do check Blabbermouth from time to time. Hard not to. It’s kind of a metal institution at this point. Here and there, when they publish first week numbers, I’ll read those if they concern a band I like, or am curious about for whatever reason. I’m not a Demon Hunter fan, [...]
