It's the first new music we've heard from the band (as opposed to the previously unreleased demos and the like on Eternal Youth ) in nearly two years, so we were pretty damned excited to hear it. First of all, go and listen to the song over on Rolo Tomassi's official Facebook page . At the [...]
Yep, so think of it what you will, but this thing always manages to end up being a pretty massive day as well as creating a bit of controversy. Be it not having any females...to Angus & Julia Stone winning with a song about a big fucking plane. Shannon Noll sang about a big car...didn't [...]

Che ormai la tv se non il primario è il quasi primario mezzo per la stesura di nuovi linguaggi, tanto per quello che riguarda le sceneggiature quanto i personaggi e le trame vere e proprie (Aaron Sorkin per dire, viene da lì e ora di là se lo litigano) per il cinema il 2011 è stato forse l'anno con più alto valore qualitativo di sempre sparso nelle varie serie tv. Ormai (o siamo noi che ci facciamo caso ora) il panorama è completissimo, ogni branchia tematica è occupata da uno o più racconti e insomma. Se vi va qui sotto [...]

Reunited Seattle grungers, Soundgarden have confirmed that they're finally making their way over to Europe for Rock Am Ring on 01 June and sister festival, Rock Im Park on 03 June. Could this mean they're finally coming over to the UK to play some shows? EXCITING. Some people are worried that EFestivals has said that it's been confirmed as a German exclusive performance. That just means it's their only show in Germany. They're going to be announcing more European shows, don't you worry about that. Sonisphere Festival will take place [...]
After posting our own year-end lists for 2011, we asked you, oh ye MetalSucks faithful, to tell us what you thought the best metal album of the year was. And the winner by a landslide was The Devin Townsend Project's all-star spectacular, Deconstruction, which got more than twice as many votes as its nearest competitors, [...]
