A Fist in the Face of God presents… Fenriz: Trapped Under Vice, Vol. V

Posted on Saturday, October 16th, 2010

The latest in the Trapped Under Vice mix series from Darkthone’s Fenriz a.k.a. DJ V.K.O.M., is here. And it’s about as speed metal as you will find anywhere. Fenriz told me, “These are mostly speed metal tracks, and I use that term in the simplest sense, to mean fast heavy metal tracks. The ice breakers in between are slower heavy metal tracks. Oh and BTW this time I DIDN’T include a tough cookie as the first song, no, it’s a ‘fenomenal’ song instead!”

LA Music Blog: Interview with Scott Kelly of Neurosis

Posted on Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Some 25 years since the band’s inception, Neurosis have rightfully transformed the realm of experimental, heavy music through the course of nine powerful studio albums. Noticeably progressing through each release, it was 1993’s Enemy of the Sun that propelled the band into an entirely new entity, shedding their crusty, hardcore roots for a more vigorous and cogent sound. Celebrating the record and its eminent pith on the evolution of Neurosis, the band has released a reissued rendition today, along with the third installment of their Official Bootleg series, Live At Roadburn 2007. Speaking on the albums, as well as forthcoming ...read more

Voivod Live in Helmond, Holland: Catching Trains and Missing Sequences by Leslie Hadlock

Posted on Monday, August 16th, 2010

Friday, 13 August 2010: Snake’s theory was that the date had something to do with Blacky’s bass breaking down during ‘Experiment,’ quickly followed by Dan’s guitar malfunctioning during the same song. Band and crowd took the temporary breakdown in stride. It didn’t matter and besides, it was nothing compared to the various setbacks this band has seen over the years. At times the set missed a certain flow: sandwiching the airy, groovy elegance of ‘The Unknown Knows’ and ‘The Prow’ between the mud-splattered opening assault of Voivod and subsequent Ripping Headaches made for some whiplash-inducing leaps backward & forward through ...read more

Austin Metal Music Examiner: The 10 Most Expensive Black Metal Albums

Posted on Friday, August 6th, 2010

Lovingly pinched from Austin Metal Music Examiner: Hessians the world over pride themselves in buying stacks of CDs and LPs at a time.

Some sought-after releases have sold for disastrous prices in recent years, though the recession has finally slowed down the market. Nevertheless, there ...read more
