You gotta love Philadelphia-based sleaze metallers Devil Master. The band merge black thrash with snotty Japanese punk, bathe everything in pink light, and won’t perform unless their mic stands are all dripping with fake cobwebs. Now, the bubblegum-flavored hate brigade have dropped a new single via a pretty rad performance video. The track, “The Vigour

In a new interview with Jose Mangin on Sirius XM’s Liquid Metal, Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine revealed that Testament’s Steve DiGiorgio was the bassist who replaced Dave Ellefson after his unfortunate firing due to an infidelity. Here’s what Dave said: “We obviously had that weird little…well, it wasn’t little, but we had something happen that
If you want grindcore that’ll peel your face off and feed it to you, you’d be hard-pressed to find a band better at making it than Singapore’s Wormrot. Not only do the grind three-piece play the kind of music that causes immediate panic and/or excitement, but they can also do so at the drop of
In case you had anything big happen in your life since 2019, nu-metal click-click-boomers Saliva were planning to reunite with their vocalist Josey Scott. This reunion, unfortunately, was put “on hold” in early 2021 (maybe the two sides just didn’t click, or click, or even boom). Now, however, it looks like Santa Claus is real,
If there’s any band on top of the world right now, then it’s definitely Ghost. IMPERA, the Swedish occult rockers’ latest, debuted at #2 on Billboard and sold a whopping 62,500 physical copies during its first week (70,000 if you count digital). If that weren’t enough, they’ve got a lot more music videos on the
Sometimes, all it takes is a name. When I first saw Hosticide‘s e-mail in my inbox, my immediate thought was that I needed to know what ‘hosticide’ is. Is it when a parasite kills its host? Is it killing your host, like at a dinner party? Did it actually have to do with hostility or
Corpsegrinder is a name synonymous with death metal. He is one of the most iconic and influential death metal frontmen ever and living proof that sometimes metal is more World of Warcraft and claw games than murder and mayhem. Well, sometimes at least. Maybe his mom (and literally every mom in the Midwest) would have
Earlier this month, we wrote about how Rob Zombie had cast Cassandra Peterson, AKA Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, in his upcoming adaptation of horror-comedy TV series The Munsters. Of course, in response, a million and one fans asked why Rob was always casting his wife Sheri Moon Zombie in everything, because that’s the tired,
The following editorial is solely the opinion of MetalSucks writer and editor Chris Krovatin, AKA Emperor Rhombus, who’s just some dude in his 30s. It reflects his views, and his views alone. Last week, Billboard published an interview with rapper-turned-pop-punk musician Machine Gun Kelly, in which he claimed that rock was dying, and he brought it back
This has been a long week, and it ended with a significant downer. Your average week in March is always going to be busy, but coupling it with a game-changing tragedy is really just the universe pouring salt into the existential wound that is life. Thankfully, there are respites from our long wanderings in eternity’s
The MetalSucks Playlist – Week of March 20 to March 7 This week obviously ended with a considerable tragedy, so we’re running this a day late, and it might be a little more solemn than our usual round-up. Here are this week’s top stories. We’ll keep an eye on the ticker today, and otherwise see
Last night, the rock world was shocked to hear that Taylor Hawkins, drummer for world-conquering rock act Foo Fighters, had died at the age of 50. Now, initial toxicology reports have been released that show that there were narcotics in Hawkins’ system at the time of his death. As reported by Ultimate Classic Rock, the Office of the
Last night, the rock world was shocked to hear that Taylor Hawkins, drummer for world-conquering rock act Foo Fighters, had died at the age of 50. Since then, countless musicians have paid tribute to Hawkins via their social media. But the one that rips our guts out the most might be that of Nandi Bushell, the 11-year-old viral
According to TMZ, Korn‘s tour bus has sustained gunfire outside of a hotel in Iowa. No one was injured, in the band or otherwise. The site claims that the tour bus was hit while parked outside a hotel in Davenport, IA. A spokesperson for the Davenport Police Department apparently told them that they got a call
For a nerd like me, watching Powerwolf do as well as they have is really exciting. That a German power metal band whose music is primarily about werewolves, vampires, and the eternal war between the two can be as huge and beloved as they are is just awesome, even if it’s unexpected. Now, the band
It is impossible to separate heavy metal from horror films. Ever since the first metal band got their name from a Boris Karloff movie advertised on a nearby theater marquee, heavy music and monster movies have been inseparable. Now, guitar makers Gibson have decided to examine this on via new web series, Metal and Monsters
Watching the public reaction to Dave Grohl‘s new in-world metal project Dream Widow was interesting. When the first single, “March of the Insane,” dropped during the roll-out of Foo Fighters‘ movie Studio 666, it was a huge hit despite metal purists wrinkling up their noses at it. The album announcement was where the hate really
We knew that Sumerian Records had branched out beyond just putting out heavy albums — the company’s own Ash Avildsen directed the Andy Biersack-directed American Satan, after all. But now, they’ve apparently branched out into comics and games, as it’s been revealed that Sumerian Records & Films has acquired comics publisher and gaming company Behemoth
Death metallers Jungle Rot are the scalloped potatoes of the scene — you can turn up your nose at them when you’re feeling cool, or go with the band who calls what they do au gratin, but secretly your mouth is watering every time someone mentions them. Well, we love scalloped potatoes, and we love
Apparently, there are people concerned with Dream Theater frontman James LaBrie possibly lip-syncing during certain live performances. These people have taken to the Dream Theater subreddit, which we assume is the only haven for people whose day involves worrying about this topic, to complain about it. Well, now they’ve gotten through to James, who took
