What do you get if you cross a transvestite, a disease, and extreme horror?
… The answer my friends, is no, not Lady Gaga, but in fact a brand new extreme Metal band Temple of the Black Moon. According to Blabbermouth, members of Cradle of Filth, Anthrax, and Gorgoroth have joined forces to create this new super group.
Temple of the Black Moon comprise of Dani Filth (CoF), Rob Caggiano (Anthrax), King (ex Gorgoroth) and John Tempesta (formally of White Zombie – and I totally should have slipped a zombie in that title now I think about it). An album release and subsequent live dates are expected to happen around mid-2012, which also coincides with the supposed end of the world. Coincidence?
Tuesday Trivia: Metal Terror
A few weeks back, Osama Bin Laden was killed in an action by an US army team. And while we wait for Disney to make a game out of it (fo’ real-real), I’ll be spending time answering the question that you probably have right now in your heads: What the fuck does that have to do with metal?
Well, make the jump, I’ll let you in on the secret.
Not much remains
It is with sad heart I have to inform you that All That Remains are no longer amongst us. The metal community is invited for a moment of silence, as the band announce their tour dates supporting non other than Hollywood Undead on their summer tour. Not that All That Remains are the be all-end all of metal so we feel like we’re suffering a horrible loss, still it’s pretty fucking lame.
In case you don’t know, Hollywood Undead are those clowns (literally) that make nu metal of 10-years-ago seem like a the next best thing to come after renaissance and/or blow up dolls. You can check the tour dates here and know which cities to avoid this summer.
Interview: Søren T S Christensen (Die)
Die are a Death Metal band from Denmark who formed in 2005 and released their debut album last year.
Earlier this month, I reviewed Die’s debut album Rise Of The Rotten and gave it a favorable 4,5 skull rating.
I’ve gotten the chance to interview Die’s vocalist Søren Christensen (pictured above, on the left), make the jump to check out the interview.
Devildriver kick ass!
Devildriver kick ass! Not only have they been producing ass kicking music for the best part of a decade now, but now I can stare at beautiful ass kicking Devildriver branded asses whilst listening to Devildriver branded ass kicking music, thanks to the above photo. How can life get any sweeter than this? Well ok, maybe if I had a girlfriend so I wouldn’t get so excited by the sight of the slightest bit of flesh 🙁 It would save me a ton on tissues too…
