Metal Injection are hosting this video of Daath on tour, behind the scene and all that good shit. They’re currently still on tour with Cynic and Dragonflaughhahah. Sorry, almost puked there.
This video was an auto-start and was annoying the crap out of me. If you want to check it out go on over to Metalinjection.net and check out their featured videos.

Lousiana’s Goatwhore is about to release their 4th album Carving Out The Eyes Of God on Metal Blade Records on June 23rd. Their first song off of the album, Apocalyptic Havoc, debuted on XM radio’s Liquid Metal today. You can request it HERE.
They have two local shows in LA and then they’ll be heading out on the Conquer And Curse Tour with Abigail Williams, Daath, Abysmal Dawn and Success Will Write Apocalypse Across The Sky. That sounds like a pretty good show to. Request the song on XM and get it some play. Tour dates are after the fold.

Again, I’m kissing the proverbial ass of Dååth’s new album, The Concealers. This song, The Unbinding Truth, is probably my favorite. The beginning starts out kind of melodic and groovy and then it just kicks in with that killer groove riff. That’s the best way to explain it. After that it just keeps getting better. It sounds way better on CD and cranked. Enjoy…and get this album!
 

Chimaira’s The Infection has done pretty well in it’s first week, selling around 15k copies and landing on the Billboard 200 charts at #30.
Sadly, Daath only sold around 1300 copies of The Concealers while lesser known band, Seventh Void did pretty well, selling about 1800.
Black Label Society did well with their Best of album, Skullage, selling about 4600 copies.
I really hope that Daath album catches on and takes off. I hate to beat off a dead horse, but this album is awesome.

So, 2009. I don’t even know where to begin. So far, so good as far as metal year goes. This is in no particular order so bare with me.
We got a new Lamb Of God album that I still think is not as good as everyone else thinks; and a new Mastodon album that is musically amazing but people seem to bitch about because it’s not heavy enough or something.
Cannibal Corpse release an album that is, well, another good Cannibal Corpse album. Nothing extravagant enough to go on a murder spree, but a good album. Cattle Decapitation almost convince me …read more

Roadrunner Records is kind enough to offer up a free Mp3 from Dååth’s new album, The Concealers. This is the opening track, titled Sharpen The Blades. If you dig Sharpen The Blades you’ll love the rest of The Concealers.

That’s a tough choice right there. Lucky for me I only had to choose between Chimaira and Daath. With the hype I’ve been hearing about the new Daath album, The Concealers, it was hard for me to ignore the urge to listen to and buy it.
I sampled The Infection but I just couldn’t bring myself to buy it…yet. I had about 8 good CD’s in my hand and I had to narrow that down to 3. Unfortunately I still don’t feel that I would be satisfied with another Chimaira CD.
So far I am on my 4th spin of the …read more

It’s been another crazy, busy week. I’m still trying to recover from the Suffocation show and my neck is killing me. I have a bunch of stuff from press releases and such I’m going to dump out here all in one and then get on with the normal days work.

Unearth guitarist Buz McGrath will be sitting out of Unearth’s headlining tour that kicked off on Friday. Buz and his wife are in the process of adopting a baby from overseas…because there isn’t any orphan babies in America, I guess. My opinion aside, he will be temporarily replaced by Emil Werstler of Daath. This tour also includes Emmure, Impending Doom and Born Of Osiris. Tour Dates are below.
