There’s something brutal about German efficiency — especially when it’s turned loose inside death metal. I sat down with Steffen Hustert from Soul Grinder, the man responsible for shredding those riffs into fine, blood-soaked powder onstage. He might not write the bulk of the material, Read More …
Some bands just ignite something deep in the marrow — and Story of the Year are one of those combustible forces that never really die, they just wait for the right spark. And on October 16, 2025, that spark hit the powder keg with their Read More …
There’s a certain madness that comes when two metalheads sit down to argue about albums that have no skips. It’s not just a list — it’s a pilgrimage through riffs, blood, and nostalgia. Episode 2 of The Sid & Killer Show feels like two sonic Read More …
There’s heavy — and then there’s Immortal Disfigurement heavy. “Hellhole” doesn’t just drop; it detonates, dragging you through a cathedral built from blastbeats and brimstone. CJ McCreery’s return to the mic feels like an exorcism through subwoofers, every guttural a sermon to the damned. This Read More …
I’ve sat through a lot of metal over the years, but nothing jolted me like As I Lay Dying’s new single “Echoes”. Tim Lambesis is back at the helm, the riffs hit like a freight train loaded with molten steel, and the new lineup isn’t Read More …
There’s something hypnotic about watching KISS in their prime — that absurd blend of greasepaint, pyro, and pure rock ’n’ roll swagger that could only have been born in the cocaine-fueled heart of the late ’70s. Sydney, 1980 — the makeup melting under stage lights, Read More …

Every now and then, I get to sit across from someone who helped build the modern sound of brutality. Despised Icon aren’t just another deathcore band — they’re the reason half the scene even exists. Before the breakdown arms race and the guttural Olympics, there Read More …
The walls are shaking again. Switzerland’s deathcore juggernaut Paleface Swiss just dropped a bomb with hardcore icons Stick To Your Guns, and it’s not just another heavy track—it’s a declaration. “Instrument of War” is a Picasso-inspired rallying cry that turns art into ammunition, fury into Read More …
I usually spend my days knee-deep in distortion and blast beats — chasing the thunder of heavy music, the guttural roars and riff-laden chaos that define our world. But before there was death, doom, or distortion pedals, there was The Animals. They laid the blueprint Read More …
There’s something otherworldly about V/HAZE MIASMA — like a fever dream caught between beauty and rot. Their sound doesn’t just fill a room; it crawls through it, slow and deliberate, until it finds a nerve and starts to pull. On the verge of releasing their Read More …
Photos @djsedick The air inside Lion Arts Center was thick with history, ghosts, and that old Adelaide sweat that seeps into the floorboards after two decades of breakdowns and feedback. You could almost taste the nostalgia — the faint tang of beer-soaked memories, the hum Read More …
