I can’t fathom how difficult it must be to travel to a new continent to open up an entire tour. That’s the place Destrage find themselves them in currently, as they’re on the road with Protest the Hero and Good Tiger. I remember stumbling on the band as they put out the video for “Purania” in 2014 and being perplexed by the band, not able to discern what it was that I liked about them. Flash forward four years and I’m not sure I can tell you what about this band that’s so enjoyable, but words are better formed when you have a live show to couple the music with. Destrange an anomaly, and in 2018 when metal is rarely seeing anything unique, that’s a good thing.
To kick off their celebration of ten years as a band, Dark Operative is proud to present POWER TRIP’s Opening Fire: 2008-2014, a complete collection of the band’s earliest non-LP output.

A Perfect Circle, who performed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” last night, have announced Fall tours for both the U.S. and Europe. The tour news arrives as the band celebrates the release of Eat The Elephant (https://AperfectCircle.lnk.to/EatTheElephantPR), A Perfect Circle’s first album in fourteen years and a release that was marked worldwide with the band gracing the covers of Revolver, Kerrang and Visions magazines. Rolling Stone said of the 12-track album, “Eat the Elephant is a moody, sensitive portrait of a band that decided to grow up and make a record that reflects where they are now as artists rather than trying to recapture the past” while The Atlantic described the collection as having a “well-honed...

I’ve been reminiscing this week of when I saw Iron Man ten years ago, watching Nick Fury walk onto screen at the end, and realizing that one day we would be getting an Avengers movie.By the time I was graduating high school, The Avengers was the talk of my entire student body, and with the stinger at the end, the question everyone asked was simple: Who was that? In refernece to Thanos, of course, we soon learned who he was. Father of Gamora. Threatening evil purple dude who sits on a chair. The guy who says “I’ll do it myself.” For all the ups and downs the Marvel Cinematic Universe has had, building upward has always been the strengh they’ve possessed. Cumilating in Infinity War,...
“Keep your politics out metal!” Facebook users scream because an artist doesn’t share their political views, oblivious to the fact that many a classic metal song is politically charged. (“War Pigs,” for example) Ministry simply don’t care. With the past few years in America being politically charged and splitting the country down the middle, Ministry opt to argue out the discourse rather than mend it. You could say agitating it will only make it work itself out, and given by the production, they aimed to absolutely offend anyone in attendance who might question their views.
