I’m running my fifth marathon on Sunday. Yay?

Big news from Metallica, regarding 2020 plans at least. They will be headlining five U.S. festivals next summer, and are planning on performing two nights at each of them. Holy moly. Those festivals are: Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival, Louder Than Life, Aftershock, Epicenter, and Welcome to Rockville.
So this is hilarious. Cattle Decapitation had their artwork for Death Atlas (out 11/29) ripped off by rapper Teddy.YG. Like, bad. As in, Mr. YG didn’t even remove the Cattle Decap logo or album title or anything… just… layered his name over it. In a fun turn of events, Cattle Decapitation then decided to sell a shirt with the image and Instagram exchange on it. Honestly, this is must-have.
In some serious bummer news, DevilDriver had to pull out of their upcoming Megacruise performance because Dez Fafara’s wife has been diagnosed with cancer. He’s taking the time to be with her, very much understandably. Positive vibes their way.
And closing with a bit of a lighter note, The Amity Affliction have released a live video for the new single “All My Friends Are Dead”. They are currently touring with Sum 41.

Triumvir Foul

I enjoy long weekends.

Static-X have announced they will be heading out on their Wisconsin Death Trip 20th Anniversary tour this summer. It will serve as a tribute to Wayne Static and will be co-headlined by Devildriver.
Meshuggah have announced U.S. headlining dates with The Black Dahlia Murder. There are only a handful of dates this coming May, so jump on that shit.
My favorite news from recent days. Triumvir Foul have set a release date for Urine of Abomination. It will be out on March 29th. Give “Urine of Abomination I” a listen right now!
Superdeathflame! …has dropped a new music video for “Falling In Shades”. Watch it. Finnish melodic death metal is always a good time.

eluveitie band 2017

Listening to Hallatar on a Thursday.

Eluveitie are circling around again. The group announced their next album, Ategnatos, will be out on April 5th via Nuclear Blast.
It’s official, Slipknot are in the studio. Because nothing is ever official until Corey Taylor posts about it.
Looks like Devildriver are tracking vocals. If you’re into the groove, then this is good news for you.
Here’s something I’ve rather enjoyed today. A new lyric video from Helevorn for “A Sail to Sanity”. That one is featured on the album Aamamata.

Sorry, it’s been a slow day and I’m in a rush.

May 9, 2017

Good morning. It’s been a minute. But now that school and final exams are done for the semester, it’s time, once again, to metal. Here’s some news you might have missed from yesterday:

- Leading off with something I know will make our Literati Overlord happy, Behemoth frontman Nergal revealed that the band has started writing the follow-up to 2014’s The Satanist. Unfortunately, we’ll likely have to wait ’til late 2018 to hear it.

CANTO: Insomnium, Slayer, and Agalloch one more time (I promise)

“I become the one you haven’t seen for years.”

Insomnium updates are among my favorites! The melodic death metallers have announced that they will be releasing a concept album and book titled Winter’s Gate on September 23rd. I am beyond stoked for this.
Looks like Slayer will be playing this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. I’m sure it’s already sold out. Or something. I don’t know. I don’t give a shit.
One more time from Agalloch. As the other three visionaries expressed their frustration at the situation decided upon by Haughm, it was announced that the Agalloch name would finally meet its terminus. Fitting, I suppose.
Ok, we may shit on DevilDriver quite a bit. And Coal Chamber significantly more than that. But this interview Dez did with Blunt, basically because of the light he shed on the CC situation, may have earned him a point in my mind.
Here’s Axl Rose standing while performing with AC/DC because fuck I just don’t want to keep trying at this point in the day. Remember he broke his leg? I guess he’s moving again or something.
