You’re only getting two of these from me this week, at best, so let’s make them count just like never!

• Slipknot brought the biggest news of the day (probably) with their (sic)est Stadium Tour. There is so much going on here. Tour launch events tonight, presales tomorrow, and supporting performances from the likes of Bring Me The Horizon, Lamb of God, Lorna Shore… and the list goes on. Get the full scoop here. This would be one hell of a tour to attend if you can swing it.
• Norwegian black metal outfit Urarv revealed the second track from their upcoming new album, one titled “Operation Genocide”. Nychta Psychis, their third album, is set to drop on October 16th through Darkness Shall Rise.
• Blasphemaniac are releasing their second album, Ataque Diabólico a Sacralidade Brasileira, on November 25th through Adirondack Black Mass. Jump to their Bandcamp now to preorder that and get a taste with “Odioso Manifesto Anti o Monumentalismo Sacro abraâmico”.
• Four is enough for today. We’ll wrap up with some more black metal, this time from Dutch entity Asgrauw. They’re releasing Solips in partnership with Zwaertgevegt, Hidden Marly Production, and JEM’s Label on November 12th. Give “Confabulatie” a watch and listen below.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
