Here’s a great four minute video from the U.K. festival Sonisphere, where several bands were taped discussing the influence that Metallica has had on their lives and their music. Check it out below.

Gojira have announced dates for a UK tour in March. Gojira will be headlining this tour in support of The Way Of All Flesh. Dates are below the video of All The Tears No word yet as to who will be in support.

All That Remains had to cancel the remainder of their tour dates with In Flames, Gojira and 36 Crazyfist due to Phil Labonte having some throat issues. No bands like to cancel shows and there is no sense in trying to continue if the front man is going to sound like garbage and hurt himself more by trying. All That Remains want to make it up to the fans that didn’t get to see them. I think this is a pretty nice gesture but it’s kind of far off. Here’s is an update from their Myspace:
Hey Everyone,
We are so …read more

2008 has been a great year for metal. Here is my Top 10 Favorite Metal Albums of 2008 (that I own). I know that there are probably a lot of other amazing metal albums that came out this year but I can only go off of what I own and what I’ve heard. So more or less these are my favorites and not some definitive collection of what I think is the best. How many people can honestly say that they have heard and thoroughly listened to every new metal album that came out this year? Anyway, let’s get …read more

All That Remains posted a bulletin yesterday on their Myspace announcing that they will have to cancel two of shows on their tour with In Flames, Gojira and 36 Crazyfists. One of those shows was last nights show in Tempe Arizona and the other date is tonight’s show in Albuquerque New Mexico. This is what was posted on myspace:
Hey guys, we unfortunately had to cancel off the Tempe and Albuquerque shows. Phil’s vocals are in rough shape to a point where singing will not be possible. Luckily the doctors say he’ll be better shortly and we’ll be back in …read more

Unearth landed themselves on the Billboard 200 with their first weeks sales of The March clocking in at just under 11,000 copies. This placed them at #45, while France’s Gojira didn’t do so well with their second album on the Prosthetic label, The Way Of All Flesh only selling around 4,200 copies. I thought The Way Of All Flesh would sell much better considering the buzz around this band and the response that their previous album, From Mars To Sirius, received. While 4,200 was still pretty good and enough to land them at #138 on the Billboard 200, it …read more

A lot of good stuff hits the stores today. New Eps, Albums and DVD’s. I also have a few things to run in review coming out later, like Mushroomhead’s Vol.2, which is really cool if your in to Mushroomhead and Vision Of Disorder’s Dead In New York live DVD of their very last show in 2002.
Gojira – The Way Of All Flesh (Prosthetic) Amazing. enough said. Get it!
Book Of Black Earth – Horoskopus (Prosthetic) If you like death metal and you like black metal or the blackened death metal than this is something worth picking up.
Early Man -Beware The Circling …read more

With an absolutely amazing new release coming up with The Way Of All Flesh, Gojira’s first single, or video is Vacuity. Not my favorite song,as I said before, but still a solid tune and cool video. Look for Gojira’s The Way Of All Flesh October 14th on Prosthetic Records.
Vacuity

Gojira’s latest release The Way Of All Flesh goes hot on October 14th. The Way Of The Flesh picks up where From Mars To Sirius left off…and then some. It should definitely quench the hunger of the fans that have been waiting for what seems like an eternity for something new since 2006. What’s great about Gojira is that they have a unique sound to them. They don’t sound like every other band on the market today and their messages are positive through negative words. Where from Mars To Sirius was a conceptive album based around the environment  and …read more

As of late I have found myself with way too much metal to listen to. Whether it’s a review of a yet to be released cd, to just a new CD I bought. Sometimes it becomes overwhelming for me to try to keep up with everything and some newer stuff gets over-looked.
Between trying to get my review up for the new Gojira The Way OF The Flesh CD to Beneath The Massacre’s Dystopia that I just got in the mail, I find almost little time to get in to one thing before moving on to the next. I don’t …read more
