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. 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
Recently, we wrote about how Staind frontman Aaron Lewis told an audience that we should be listening to what megalomaniacal Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is saying. The basic idea is that Putin is actually fighting a Deep State stronghold in Ukraine whose goal is to harm Donald Trump more than the former president already harmed
The world has felt for Ukrainian hard rockers Jinjer during Vladimir Putin’s recent invasion of their homeland. The band were one of the first to speak out against the war, and eventually chose to back out of an opening slot on Slipknot’s upcoming tour so they could return home and help people in need. But
Whether or not you like their decaf occult rock, you’re undoubtedly aware that Ghost are immensely popular, and their new album IMPERA saw them reaching new heights of hype and acclaim. Now, the band have revealed their chart positioning throughout Europe and other parts of the world, and apparently, someone out there loves ’em, because
Tuesday marks the 40th anniversary of Iron Maiden‘s The Number of the Beast being released. Besides the first four Black Sabbath albums and the biggest albums by thrash’s Big 4, you would be hard-pressed to find a heavy metal album more iconic, beloved, and influential than this one. The fact that we can still put
For those of you who don’t know, Snot were a formative nu-metal band who basically helped establish the genre in the ’90s. Their 1997 album Get Some is considered one of the scene’s formative classics and a pillar of ’90s metal. Their frontman Lynn Strait was much beloved in the community, and was in jail
Remember how Staind frontman Aaron Lewis literally wrote the “Where My Country Gone” song from South Park, even though he’s forgotten the lyrics to the National Anthem in front of thousands of people? Welp, now he’s apparently bought into the belief that Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is actually an attack on the Deep State,
Fear not, mortal: Blind Guardian are here to bless your post-St. Patrick’s Day regret with their latest single “Secrets Of The American Gods,” and boy is this a catchy one.
