CANTO: Faith No More, Necropsy, Dave Mustaine, and More

faith no more band

Tomorrow I should find out if I’m going to Germany next year.

Necropsy have released the first single, “Butcherado”, from an upcoming 4-song EP titled Exitus. If you want some death metal on a Tuesday night, I wouldn’t blame you. Have at it.
When I see updates from Dave Mustaine, I tend to stop all things and see what the latest is. Well, fortunately, I have another positive update to share. Here is the full interview, but the main thing to take away is that he had continued responding well to treatment. And that crazy amount of support is cool to see, as well.
Sorry, did you want some kind of follow up to that Faith No More hint from yesterday? Here you go. They return in 2020, to the tune of some festivals across the pond. Fret not, I’m sure there is more on the horizon as well.
In case you were interested in seeing Ozzy Osbourne perform with Post Malone, here you go. This is from his show in Inglewood on November 21st.

I had to skip Canto yesterday to set up my new, and slightly less mediocre, sound system. Priorities!

Lacuna Coil and Apocalyptica are hitting North America next year. Those dates are in May and they cover a whole lot of places so odds are they will be in a city near you. Looks like tickets just on sale as well.
Could this be 13 seconds of new Ozzy Osbourne music? Um, yeah, probably. Either way, this is exciting! And I’m sure we will get a whole new song in the very near future… like Friday maybe! I love speculating.
Exmortus had an unfortunate accident in Canada after hitting a patch of ice. The van and trailer are totaled and the current tour is on hold. Super bummer. These guys are awesome. Help them out and whatnot.
How about another tour because I see it sitting in our inbox? Red Death are hitting the road with Enforced. Those are also North American dates, but a whole lot earlier in 2020. Like, January.
Falling In Reverse released a new video today for “Popular Monster”. Check it out below. Their most recent album, Coming Home, is available on Epitaph Records.

I took a day off midweek for no reason whatsoever.

Abbath has announced his sophomore album, Outstrider, will be released on July 5th. Personally, I thought his debut was… fine? But Immortal‘s post-Abbath success last year means I will be paying close attention to this one.
I missed this yesterday so I’m sharing it now. Dead To A Dying World released a new track called “Empty Hands, Hollow Hymns”. Of course it’s good, but it’s not fair to dig into it too much until we have an entire album to digest. Remember Litany? Yeah. Like that. But the new album, Elegy, will be out in about one month. Not long to wait.
Underoath have released a new…. *delete*.
Let’s check in on Ozzy and his recent health struggles. It seems like he’s doing better, which is a good thing. A reminder that the U.S. leg of his tour is right around the corner.
Allegaeon dropped a new music video for “Extremophiles (B)”, in the continued build to the April 19th release of Apoptosis. I know at least one person pumped for that album, so let’s see what this clip is all about.

I’m listening to Agalloch. That is all.

Let’s start with Rotting Christ. Today gifted us a new lyric video for “The Sons Of Hell”, a bonus track from the freshly released new album called The Heretics. But wait, there’s more! They also recently announced some European dates with Moonspell. So if you’re in Europe towards the end of the year, I encourage dabbling.
More rough news out of the Ozzy Osbourne camp. The Australia, New Zealand, and Japan “No More Tours 2” dates have been canceled. The good news is that the reports I’m seeing indicate that he is through the worst of his illness, but doctor’s orders understandably require him to chill for a handful of weeks.
Sleep fans! Another tour is around the corner. These dates are with Big Business and run from late May through late June-ish. Those tickets will go quickly, as they always do.
Tribulation have dropped a live video for their performance of “Nightbound” in Oberhausen. Let’s watch it. Oh, and they are also doing live things in Europe.

I’ve been listening to these In Flames tracks way more than I probably should.

Psycroptic has announced the As The Kingdom Drowns tour with Cannabis Corpse, Gorod, and Micawber. U.S. dates running through April and May.
In another episode of “Metal Bands Making Beer”, Children Of Bodom have revealed that they are partnering with Fat Lizard Brewing Co. to create the Lake Bodom Pre-Prohibition Lager. This is lager that will be brewed with, you guessed it, water from Lake Bodom.
Remember when I said Ozzy postponed some of those European dates? Well, now the whole tour is being rescheduled. That escalated quickly. We obviously hope he gets well soon.
Magic Circle isn’t a name I’ve brought up recently, so I’m more than happy to close with that. Their third LP, Departed Souls, will be out in March via 20 Buck Spin. Let’s check out the new title track.
