If there’s anything that everyone can agree on, it’s that Nazis and racists deserve to get kicked in the teeth over and over.

Many Machine Head fans are quick to claim that the band’s 1999 album The Burning Red, a record that infamously features rapping on certain tracks, is corny and one that they hate or skip over, but the record sold well, so vocalist Robb Flynn is calling everyone out, claiming the record couldn’t have been that

To celebrate the announcement, they’ve also dropped the album’s first single, “Society of Spectres,” which you can check

Austrian quartet Phal:Angst exist somewhere between industrial, EBM, goth, post-rock and doom, peddling a brand of music that is equal parts dark, heavy and danceable, almost the more brooding cousin of something like Boy Harsher. Their new album, Whiteout, is out today and we’ve teamed up with the band to share the video for “Severance”

Earlier today, we shared the audio only versions of Periphery’s first two singles off their upcoming album Periphery V: Djent Is Not A Genre.

After eight years of relative silence, German doom undertakers Ahab return in the only way fans should expect: another concept album about ocean-themed literature. Having firmly established their nautical take on funeral doom metal in the annals of extreme music, the book Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas offers more than a compelling inspiration for

Shit is going to be absolutely bonkers later this year at 18 venues across the U.S. later this year, as Dying Fetus and Suicide silence are expected to tear things up with a long list of other supporting acts later this year. Dubbed the “Chaos & Carnage 2023” tour, this slate of bands will also

Metal and beer, beer and metal. Two of the finer things in life go together like riffs and blast beats, which is why Decibel Mag combines them in a festival twice a year.

During

The last year has been pretty fucking good for Ghost. Love ’em or hate ’em, Impera is a bona fide banger and they were able to put on a successful tour despite the ongoing problems that other bands face when taking their show on the road.
