Holy Hell I am tired today. Thankfully, my new Churchburn hat showed up in the mail.

Kataklysm guitarist Jean-François Dagenais recently tested positive for COVID-19 and had been experiencing some pretty severe symptoms. He dropped a message today to shed some light on his experience. Hopefully he continues to feel better.
On August 29th, this coming Saturday, Trivium are offering up “The Deepest Cuts” free live stream event. It will take place in their rehearsal room, and will be broadcast through Matt Heafy’s Twitch channel.
Belgian death metallers Carnation have shared the title-track from their upcoming new album, Where Death Lies. The record is set to be released on September 18th through Season of Mist.
NoN (formerly Now Or Never) dropped a new single and music video for “Ordinary World” through Crusader Records. If some melodic metal seems like a good way to end your Monday, have at it.

“She spoke to me like hope was real, that peace was something I could feel.”

Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister will have his story shared as a biopic, which we should all be excited for. Depending on how things play out, it looks like production could start early next year.
I’m pretty much fed up with the world, so I’m going to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to invest in this Black Sabbath shirt. Proceeds go directly to Black Live Matter, so make it happen.
Ihsahn and Trivium‘s Matt Heafy are coming together for a black metal project titled Mrityu, which I think most of us already knew. Well, we have a real update from the studio to share today.
Varathron has announced a new live album, Glorification Under The Latin Moon, will drop on September 25th through Agonia Records. The album features footage from their 30th anniversary tour.
And we’ll close with a new music video from Kaamos Warriors for “Kuilu”. Their next album, titled Kirous, will be out sometime later this year.

CANTO: Fall tours to get excited about, a new Deafheaven track, and more!

Hello, everyone! It’s a great day isn’t it? Hot and humid all day with thunderstorms in the near future. Epic. A solid night to write up on some metal. Here’s what’s going on in the world today.

Let’s start with a new tour! And a freaking big one. Between the Buried and Me will be hitting the road in November with Enslaved, Intronaut, and Native Construct. I’m skipping it because I already saw Enslaved headline a show this year. Still a beast of a lineup, though.
You know what? Fuck it, let’s talk about another massive tour. This one features GWAR, Born of Osiris, and Battlecross. That particular lineup will be covering North America throughout October and November.
I don’t support Trivium, but this is kind of cool. Matt Heafy is auctioning off his metal shirt collection to benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation. 100% of the proceeds will be donated. This is a very, very awesome thing.
Jimmy Kimmel Live! is getting all metal on us. We already know about Lamb of God’s feature in the next week or so. But it was also announced recently that Faith No More would be performing the following week. Metal for the masses!
Finally, let’s close with a new Deafheaven track called “Brought to the Water”:

You probably already know how I feel about it. And it isn’t negative.

Quickies: Album Sales, A Mike Patton Interview, and Stuff From Rob Zombie’s ’31’

Over halfway home for the week. Thank God for the back to back gloomy ass days. Seriously, it’s awesome. Really. Anyway, I’m within the last 7 work days until I leave for Germany… holy shitdick. None percent of me is ready. But more than none percent of me is ready to get caught up on the news…

I welcome I Declare War to the ranks of those putting out distasteful merchandise. Apparently they thought putting Chris Farley’s dead body on a shirt was a good idea. Idiots.
Metal album sales for the week. Solid opener for Judas Priest, but not a ton else.
So Chris Holmes, everyone. The former W.A.S.P. guitarist decided to play the race card in regards to people not giving a shit about him. As opposed to his awful music. Curious.
Rob Zombie’s new flick, 31, had some images released. Only concept art, and it’s doesn’t that interesting. But, it’s there. Maybe I’ll watch House of 1000 Corpses tonight now…
Matt Heafy still sucks and Dragonforce still sucks. Naturally, they would continue to work together. God help us all.
For those that appreciate Mike Patton (all of us), here’s an interview with Ben Weinman.
Finally, here’s what happens when you propose to someone in front of Robb Flynn:

Marriage is one of the dumbest things imaginable. But who wouldn’t want to get a beer with Robb Flynn? Dude’s legit. That clip was significantly shorter than any number of the mediocre music videos I happened across today. Oops, also NSFW.

Live. Love. Plow. Horns Up.
