Born Of Osiris - Tomorrow We Die ∆live (2013)

Once again I'm back with some new knowledge to drop on your collective asses. And once again I know it's been a while but I've been busy trying to get my shit together, including sorting out uni for next year, trying to find paying employment, dealing with post-festival depression after coming home from bloodstock and then trying to sort out some personal shit. However, fear not. I'm now back to save you from boredom for all of the 10 minutes it'll take you to read this article (who knows, you may still be bored as fuck. I do have that effect on people every so often). Anyway, I digress. Read, share and enjoy. Or don't, I'll still be here either way.

Out Now: Thy Art Is Murder - Hate

Hello there everyone, just thought I'd check in and let you know that Aussie deathcore/tech-death heroes Thy Art Is Murder's 2nd album "Hate" has finally arrived on our shores, due to the wonderful people at Nuclear Blast records recognising this band's talent and finally giving them a record deal. Those of you that have been reading my opinionated rants reviews for a while now will that I have mad love for this band and have been raving about them since this album was released down under/leaked over the internet back in October, all I can say is it's about fucking time people heard this album as it's amazing. Sick drums, great breakdowns, shredding solos and growls so low they'll make your bollocks tingle. If you like death metal/deathcore of any kind you need to give this album a listen, you'll hopefully be glad you did.

Until next time, I'm gonna leave you with the sick video these guys made for the first track from this monster, the titanic anthem "Reign Of Darkness", listen to those drums during the end breakdown (fucking insane or what?) and I defy you not to growl along after a couple of listens, it's that fucking good.

For now, peace out! I'll have a new review for you guys in a day or two. Until then, stay metal \m/

Parkway Drive + Emmure & The Word Alive - London Roundhouse 17th November 2012

Before I start let me just state that while the rest of the gig went absolutely fucking horribly as I will explain below, I plan to stay as unbiased and professional as possible when discussing the bands and their performances. Please be aware that I am not attacking anyone in my article below, I am merely relaying my experiences from the other night in an attempt to inform and educate.

And now, to business...
