“We’re honest about how we’re feeling” – Josh Gilbert (Wovenwar) Interview

Matthew Powers 0
On Wovenwar’s recently released second record, “Honor Is Dead”, the quartet are expressing darker thoughts and topics than heard on their 2014 debut. Naturally, they went with a heavier sound to accompany such intense reflections. As the band were making their way across the US on their Fall ‘Fury Tour’ supporting Soilwork, I sat down […]

The track, which features Normandie frontman Philip Strand, will be on the band’s upcoming album Frown Upon Us which is due out on December 2 via Famined Records.

ALBUM: Avenged Sevenfold – ‘The Stage’

Matthew Powers 0
Judging by the fact that Avenged Sevenfold’s seventh full-length’s existence was revealed and confirmed not even a day ago, it’s safe to assume that the record must be good. For the band to forego the typical industry process of establishing a “hype” period for the record by launching pre-orders and instead choosing to ship directly […]

Devil You Know Are Happy To Continue Making Music – “It shows that we’re having fun”

Matthew Powers 0
No member of Devil You Know is new to the bunk bed lifestyle of being in a touring band. Composed of nothing but seasoned metal veterans, Devil You Know are an engaging and diverse metal act that are quickly becoming more of a headliner than they are an easy support act. Full of energy, air […]

New Asking Alexandria single to be released + Why fans should be excited on Danny Worsnop’s return

Matthew Powers 0
With rabid speculation and conversation being sparked from the name “Danny Worsnop” alone these last two weeks, Asking Alexandria fans have had an awful lot to think about. The one thing on their minds especially must be the topic of whether Danny’s return could be a good thing. I opted a month ago when this […]

ALBUM: The Devil Wears Prada – ‘Transit Blues’

Matthew Powers 0
One thing a listener can pick up by listening to Ohio metalcore elite, The Devil Wears Prada, is that their music isn’t made to fly to the top of the active rock charts. They don’t write songs to appeal to an audience that listens for nothing more than a sing-a-long No, their brand of heavy […]

ALBUM: Sum 41 – ’13 Voices’

Matthew Powers 0
After nearly dying from alcohol abuse, Sum 41 Deryck Whibley felt inspired to turn to that which has always been a means of catharsis for him – Music. He was so inspired in fact that out of this inspiration came an entirely new Sum 41 record, a prospect that seemed nigh impossible in the wake […]
