http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUi1yf97paw The biggest metal band in Israel, Orphaned Land, is being highlighted as a viable bridge between headbanging Muslims and Jews as their apolitical, peace-promoting power metal seems to only have extreme views when it comes to wearing scarves on stage. While this kind of music is definitely not the thing that blows my gentile mind, I would love to ...

This particular blog post was originally designed to be a congratulatory stamp for Winnipeg “elitist-asshole metallic noise rock with touches of post-metal, hardcore, sludge and doom” band, KEN Mode as they very deservedly came out on top in the category of Best Metal Album of the Year at last weekend’s Juno awards. To the most of you reading this in America, please know that this does not ...

I bet you did not see that one coming. Ingram, who has his fingers in seemingly every Kansas pie available, worked with hardcourt bike polo equipment makers Fixcraft to design and market this ball because, we assume, he plays hardcourt bike polo. Personally I thought he just liked smoking cigarettes, putting band names on pocket protectors and bellowing like a goddamn sea beast whenever the ...

As any old schooler can attest to, gender equality in metal has never been better. But that doesn't mean there still isn't a very vocal contingent of the ever expanding scene that thinks chicks are dumb sluts who only go to shows because they're drawn by the arousing potpourri of dread, sweat and a beer shit someone took in the unisex bathroom. So it's nice to see a column such as Girls Don't ...

So not only are you getting some free streaming music by instrumental post-rock veterans Caspian, but you also get a chance to win one of two copies of this music on sweet, ...

Ah! It's wonderful to get a tattoo up here that's not on a man's ass. Jack, from the valley of the dolls, brings us this fantastic pale slab of Black Flag ink. He clearly had the right idea when he got it. I don't think you can fuck up with a Black Flag tat, and Jack scores infinite points for not simply getting the bars. More points are awarded because the ribs can be harsh, and despite ...

Remember our Black Dahlia Murder Contest? Yeah, us either, but that won't stop us from announcing the winner! His name is Keifer, and that's good enough. Winner. The contest was to find us the most disgusting, grueling, blasting death we've never heard of. Keifer won by bringing our attention to Cerekloth. Here is some dirty, filthy, slow death from Denmark. Cerekloth's new EP, Halo Of ...

Finally! The moment of coagulated anticipation has arrived! The Deciblog is ready to unveil the top five Satanic souls who conquered our Ancient VVisdom Contest, presenting their Satanic treatises unedited and unabridged. Each scored themselves a fresh, hands-on copy of A Godlike Inferno! Jealllooouuusss. 5. Through a simple twist of fate, Paulee was converted from comic book nerd into Black ...

Even though Iceland is bankrupt, cold and Bjork is printed on their money, 200 of its peoples are getting real tired of being in America, especially during the three dozen simultaneous natural disasters on the east coast. So what do you do when you need to get back to your homeland but regular planes are too pussy to even get off the tarmac? You hop in the motherfucking Iron Maiden plane and ...
