My brain hurts.

Machine Head are taking the anniversary tour for Burn My Eyes to North America next January and February. Not entirely surprising, it was more about when these dates were going to be announced, rather than if. I might get in on this action in early 2020.
The always-touring instrumental post-rockers This Will Destroy You have also announced some early 2020 dates in the U.S. with Amulets. West coast dates only, but they’ll be more ground next month for those that want to catch them. Spoiler alert: they are awesome, so you should want to catch them.
For the Necronomicon fans out there, you may want to check out their 2 hour guest DJ appearance on Gimme Radio. I plan on tuning as much as I can, even I’ll still be neck deep in the day job responsibilities.
Nile dropped a new lyric video today for “Vile Nilotic Rites”, the title track of the upcoming November 1st release (Nuclear Blast). And since all things Nile are awesome, we’re going to check it out together.

CANTO: This Will Destroy You, Suffocation, ORCumentary, and More

I went for a run today. Like, an outside run. It’s been awhile.

Not sure if anyone caught this last night, but one of my favorite bands made their way into a Super Bowl commercial. Specifically, I’m referring to This Will Destroy You and their song “The Mighty Rio Grande”.
Suffocation currently has no vocalist, as we are all very much aware… but that’s not gonna stop them! Looks like Ricky Myers might take over those duties and a new album could be on the horizon.
While everyone else was miserably watching Maroon 5, I was focusing on the vastly superior halftime show performed by ORCumentary. Just in case you missed it, here ya go.
John 5 is always an interesting time. There’s a new album coming out eventually, but more importantly there’s a new song available now called “Crank It – Living With Ghosts”. Dabble, won’t you?

We, well…most of us, made it through another New Year’s Eve and I’d love to regale you with tall tales regarding last night but let’s just say I’d rather have that one back with a different set of circumstances. Anyway, here we are, freshly minting a new year where the metal slate is clean for all comers. I’m expecting big things this year out of metal and you should be too, seek out what you love and challenge your listening habits. But for now we have our playlist full of things that were in our rotation from last week. Subscribe here, grab some coffee, and head inside to have a listen. And if you do nothing else today please take a minute to call a loved one or a friend and tell them how much they mean to you, we aren’t guaranteed tomorrow. Continue reading →

Concert Review: Sannhet and This Will Destroy You, 11.15.2017

ThisWillDestroyYou11.15.17.23 — This Will Destroy You

Despite the fact that the brief run of shows featuring Sannhet and This Will Destroy You has already concluded, I still felt compelled to share some of the sights and sounds from what was a thoroughly entertaining night in my hometown. So, here I am. The tour featuring these two instrumental post-metal masterminds was fleeting, to say the least, covering only seven cities together between November 12th and 18th. There’s no doubt that I was thrilled to see that one of their stops happened to be a few blocks away from my residence. I tend to miss a quite a few shows that come through my area, but I had literally no excuse not to turn up for this one. Continue reading →

Concert Review: Deafheaven, This Will Destroy You, and Emma Ruth Rundle, 3.16.2017

deafheaven

Deafheaven has become one of my favorite live bands for many reasons. I’ve seen them numerous times over the past few years and they have always delivered great performances. Hell, I saw them twice in one day during Chicago Open Air last year. But what I’ve respected as much as anything else is the diversity of the lineups they perform with. Tribulation, Envy, Carcass, Between the Buried and Me… the list goes on and on. Varying bands from varying forms of metal, one tour to the next. This lineup at the Paradise Rock club a couple weeks back, featuring the likes of Emma Ruth Rundle and This Will Destroy You, might have been the most intriguing (or curious) yet. Continue reading →
