Pittsburgh-based metalcore mainstays Zao will drop their latest EP, Pyrrhic Victory on November 3. The follow up to 2016’s The Well-Intentioned Virus, Pyrrhic Victory is explosive release that will surely ignite mosh pits more than twenty years into the band’s career thus far. Led by powerful riffs and throat-ruining vocals, new song “The Host Has Bared Its Teeth” sets the tone for the explosive record. “A parasite needs a host to survive, but to the host the parasite is useless,” vocalist Dan Weyandt explains about the song. “If the parasite’s presence becomes too overwhelming, the host will then take notice and find the means to destroy it.” … Continue reading

Grindcore institution Nasum disbanded in 2005 following the death of guitarist/vocalist Mieszko Talarczyk. They reunited for a final run in 2012, culminating with a last show in Stockholm, Sweden.

Dirk Verbeuren, drummer for Megadeth, got his chops playing bands like Scarve, Aborted, and most notably Soilwork. True, he’s bashed skins for about 20 other bands/artists, but he made his mark jamming with the aforementioned. That’s likely what got him hired in Megadeth, in addition to the Chris Adler (Lamb of God) tip off. Verbeuren is proving to be the perfect fit for a recently (as of 2015) reconfigured Megadeth, where he’s able to show off his technical prowess, but also his respect for Megadeth songs recent and past. Decibel asked Verbeuren what he thought about playing songs by Megadeth’s … Continue reading

According to The Pulse Of Radio, Marilyn Manson said in a new interview with NME that he’d be interested in running for office — but only as Johnny Depp‘s running mate. Although Depp has shown no indication that he wants to run for president, he’s already got a willing vice president in Manson. Asked what their policies would be, Manson replied: “We’d set new holidays for sure. Johnny Depp Day, Marilyn Manson Day. I wouldn’t live in the White House — it’s too white and too stupid-looking.” Manson added that Donald Trump “doesn’t worry me any more than any of … Continue reading

As a prelude to the band’s new live anniversary package, “Ritual de lo Habitual: Alive at 25”, Perry Farrell speaks of JANE’S ADDICTION playing at a crazed tilt in 1991. He equates the experience viscerally to a pair of boxers not merely dancing and baiting, but going full throttle, in one another’s faces and those of everyone absorbing their slugfest. The potential stuff of legend, moments, as Farrell conveys it, that make you reminisce with privilege years later about having been there. Don’t look now Generation Y, but you’re rapidly assimilating into the nostalgic ranks of those before you. PEARL … Continue reading
