Back when they were still good: Life of Agony
Before.
A good metal band with hints of everything that later turned into a mediocre version of Stone Temple Pilots. Good for you if you like what they released six years ago, it just sounds so generic and horrible to me.
Free shit, stream shit, video shit
Who can say no to free shit? Well, me, in case someone literally offers me a bucket of free shit. Or a Linkin Park CD. I’d reconsider the bucket in that case. You know what this means though, I’ve gone through some new music and I’m here to share. Dose of Metal, just like The Pirate Bay, only legal, and less nerdy. Or just legal.
Make the jump to get the dose of new tracks, and in case you’re wondering what the video above is, it’s our buddies from Chile, Nuclear (which I’ve interviewed and reviewed before) and their new video, Criminal Solicitation.
Tuesday Trivia: The most expensive metal video
Lately, Dose of Metal was going all retro on your ass and revisiting some dying trends, so we posted a few music videos here and there. We also reported on Papa Roach. Get it, their trend died out a long time ago. Oh, we did it only for the lulz. Your mother as well.
Have you ever wondered though, which music video is the most expensive metal video of all times? I have, I checked, and I’m bringing you the info, right after the jump.
Machine Head new studio photos
Machine Head have been working hard on their forthcoming album, the follow up to 2007’s The Blackening, scheduled for a September release. September also happens to be the month of Dose of Metal’s birthday, so it’s going to be one fucking awesome month, I bet.
New pictures, taken from the studio, can be found over at MachineHead.com.
Blast From The Past: Slipknot – All Hope Is Gone
Slipknot are about to start touring again, for the first time since the tragic passing of Paul Gray, and with all the talk of “Will they continue? Won’t they continue?” it seems like a perfect time to look back at their last album. I must warn you though, I will be brutally honest, and will be as harsh as I see fit. I won’t be sugar coating my opinions for the sake of being all sentimental about the band.
The format of this review, you will notice, will differ from the usual style here at Dose of Metal. I shall be taking the ‘Blitzkritik’ approach that we used to do a long time ago. Basically, I shall put the album, press play, and simply review the album in real time as I’m listening. In other words, yes I’m lazy.
Regardless, make your way over the jump for the review.
