Anybody else watch Lords of Chaos yet? Actually… neither have I.

Look at Khemmis doing stuff! The Denver doomers have just signed on with Nuclear Blast. Looks like new music and some tours in the works as well. I love these guys, I hope they make lots of money.
Sunn O))) have announced some fun Record Store Day happenings. Their next album, Life Metal, will be released on both CD and vinyl come April 13th via indie retail. I guess that’s cool if you don’t want to wait a couple extra days? Not sure what to pull from this news exactly, tbh.
So. Borknagar has a new lead vocalist. Who is it you ask? None other than I.C.S. Vortex… who was already doing a lot of vocal stuff anyway? Anyway. Andreas “Vintersorg” Hedlund has decided to step down, and there seems to be no negative feelings anywhere… So let’s see what happens next!
A music video! “Blood Of The Levant” from Queensrÿche. Casual reminder that The Verdict, is out at the end of the week.

Good morning, it’s time to metal. Here’s some news you might have missed from yesterday:

Leading off, Agoraphobic Nosebleed will be replacing Wormrot at this year’s Maryland Deathfest. As one of the maybe five jackasses to have missed them last time out, I’m quite pumped about this. Noothgrush have been tapped to replace English Dogs, who also had to pull out of their appearance.

“Hindered by sober restlessness. Submitting to the amber crutch. The theme in my aching prose. Fantasizing the sight of Manhattan; that pour of a bitter red being that escapes a thin frame. The rebirth of mutual love. The slipping on gloves to lay tenderly.”

Let’s start with a tour. Bring Me The Horizon will be hitting the United States this May. No northeast dates, thank goodness.
Metallica have been named the 2016 Record Store Day ambassadors. I don’t actually know what this means, but Record Store Day is sometimes a thing I participate in I guess.
How about another tour? Hellyeah have announced a run of shows in the late spring. Oh, they also dropped a new single called “Human.” So that’s in there too.
Crematory have parted ways with their bassist. There goes the band… Just kidding, they’ve already announced a replacement. It’s Jason Matthias.
Slow day. But here’s a new track from Ordinance called “Bloodwine.”

CANTO: Record Store Day Black Friday deals, album sales, and more

October 28, 2015October 28, 2015CoreyLeave a comment

Getting ready for soccer while simultaneously finding some clippings to entertain you cretins. Because I care.

2015 Record Store Day Black Friday releases have been announced. There’s some impressive stuff in here, including Behemoth, Megadeth, and more.
Album sales. A good opening week for Coheed and Cambria. Not a ton beyond that, however.
It was announced earlier today that Huntress was calling it quits. Now, however, who really knows? We’ll see what happens.
Scar Symmetry have parted ways with bassist Kenneth Seil. They’ve successfully filled in their live setup for the current tour with Epica and Eluveitie, but we’ll see where things go from here.
In honor of Halloween, I’m going to share this video for Zombi’s “Diffraction Zone” that pays homage to a number of classic horror movies.

Tomorrow is Record Store Day, and to commemorate the occasion, Los Angeles trio Ides of Gemini will be releasing the 7″ EP, Carthage / Strange Fruit via Magic Bullet Records. For you vinyl junkies, the 7″ will be a limited edition, one-time-only run of clear and black vinyl—completely unavailable on any date other than April 18, 2015, so remember to get out and support your local vinylery (a word I just made up to mean “record store”).
