Dread Crew of Oddwood, Necromancing the Stone and Warpvomit all come face to beak with Waldo this week. 

Bringing metal music, film and thought together.

On this week’s Demo:listen, we bring you an exclusive premiere of the demo by Vancouver Island’s Graveolence.

Carcass. Crowbar. Ghoul. Night Demon. A basement filled with rowdy Philadelphians. Who will survive and what will be left of them?

Knocked Loose is on a roll right now, touring with The Acacia Strain, waiting to hit the United States and Europe with Stick to Your Guns and Expire and putting out a full-length album, Laugh Tracks, on September 16. Go behind the scenes of the new album in this new video.

Eyehategod in arenas; White Zombie‘s final tour; Phil Anselmo of Pantera overdosing. Our second installment of That Tour Was Awesome is not for the faint-hearted.

For Nate Garrett, the healing power of heavy riffs is nothing new. Many know the Arizona-based musician as the guitarist in Gatecreeper and Take Over and Destroy, but 2016 introduces a new chapter in his musical career: the one-man doom project Spirit Adrift. With the release of the band’s debut LP, Chained to Oblivion, a mere week away, we caught up with Garrett to talk about the events that led to its creation.

Integrity’s Those Who Fear Tomorrow, a genre-defining hardcore record, receives a 25 Year Anniversary reissue. Listen now.

For those who had a hunch that the first short story collection from Wonderland Book Award-winning author/Freak Tension zine proprietor/Weirdpunk Books founder MP Johnson — a deft writer who refracts extremely extreme weird horror fiction through a legit prism of punk-metal-hardcore culture and attack — would be an exquisitely strange, beguiling, and brutal experience…. well, Berzerkoids certainly does not disappoint.
