The sixth issue of the bestselling SNOTGIRL by Bryan Lee O’Malley and Leslie Hung is being rushed back to print in order to keep up with overwhelming customer demand.  

In preparation for the release of their upcoming August 25th release, “In Ignorance We Trust”, via Century Media Records, DEAD LORD have unveiled a second single with the comedic video for “Too Late”!  

Vattnet (Formerly Vattnet Viskar) have been gearing up to release a new album for a few months now. With the debut of “Dark Black” in June, the band showcased a new direction, one that separated them from the post-black metal sound they were attached to prior. As they detail their new self-titled album, (Simply titled Vattnet) that trend continues, especially on their new single.  

Converge last released new music in 2012. That’s a long time for any band, and Converge’s loyal fan base are surely going to eat up anything the band throws their way. That dry spell may have been broken, as the band have released two new songs, their first offering of material since All We Love We Leave Behind.  

Ne Obliviscaris are one of the most hyped progressive metal acts of the past few years. Making the news with either impressive musicianship or their crowdfunding goals, the band has gone from Australian music act to national metal icons in a matter of years. With 2014’s Citadel setting up their global takeover, it was only evident that their eventual follow up would be monumental.  

For a sophomore album, Myrkur’s Mareridt is shaping up to be a formidable force this year. Along with an accompanying video for the new song, Myrkur is also reaching for new ground on “Ulvinde,” and fans will no doubt be pleased with the result.  

Devil You Know, the metal group fronted by Howard Jones, always had a fun aesthetic to their band, despite being focused primarily on heavy riffs at the speed of light. Much to everyone’s surprise, the band has decided to rename themselves. Why? That’s a good question.  

Images and Words is not only a notable album for Dream Theater, but one for progressive metal and the greater metal scene. Widely agreed upon as a classic, the album sparked an interest in Dream Theater when “Pull Me Under” became a hit single. Now, in celebration of the album, Dream Theater are bringing over their tour to North America, playing it in it’s entirety live.  

Fan-favorite writer Zack Kaplan (ECLIPSE) teams up with all-star artist Andrea Mutti (Rebels, Prometheus) for a gritty new science fiction series, PORT OF EARTH, coming this November from Image Comics and Top Cow Productions.  

New Jersey-based progressive death metal outfit UNCURED have unveiled a brand new track, titled “Stygian Valley” as the band prepares for a heavy touring schedule through the rest of 2017. Led by 17 year-old guitar prodigy Rex Cox, alongside his 19 year-old brother, Zak Cox (lead guitars), plus the dynamic rhythm section of Jon Kita of Diecast (bass) and Liam Manley (drums) to round out the group, UNCURED will kick-off a lengthy US tour alongside DevilDriver, 36 Crazyfists and Cane Hill on August 18th.  

Hiss Spun is turning out to be an interesting album for Chelsea Wolfe. Building off of the dark nature of her previous release, Abyss, the album goes from there yet builds an identity of its own, with an undeniably metal aesthetic draped over it. To up the ante, Chelsea Wolfe has released the next single, “Vex,” from the forthcoming album, and it’s a weird one.  

Today, Thrice is pleased to announce their fall co-headline tour with Circa Survive. The band recently wrapped their summer dates, sharing the stage with Deftones and Rise Against. After a short break and two performances at the Sonic Boom and Louder Than Life festivals, Thrice will be back in November playing their last shows before returning to the studio to start recording their tenth album.
