Can someone explain to me what is going on with the state of Georgia? First there was Mastodon; then out they come Kylesa; then Baroness, and now this? How much more awesomeness can we take in?
On February 11, 2012, MASTODON took the stage at London, England's O2 Academy in Brixton, capping off the Atlanta-based band's world tour in support of their critically acclaimed album "The Hunter". This sold-out performance was MASTODON's first show at the legendary venue. It won't be their last, as the London audience positively erupted from the opening chords until the final, frenzied encore.
The Greek Thrash metal scene stands tall and proud (maybe that's a positive side effect of the financial crisis), not only by their local gods such as Suicidal Angels, Released Anger and Mentally Defiled but also by bands such as Exarsis, Bio-Cancer, Chronosphere, Fadom, Over-Throw, Domination and the band being reviewed this time: Endless Recovery.
According to The Pulse Of Radio, there's been some movement on the TOOL front regarding the band's long-awaited fifth studio album. The person inside the TOOL circle who usually posts news at the band's official web site has published a somewhat lengthy new update, in which he writes, "A couple of weeks ago I visited the TOOL loft to try and get some kind of idea as to how things were progressing with the writing sessions now that the band was back hard at it. Well, I am happy to report that there has indeed been a lot of progress as far as new material goes, especially with the lengthy so-called 'epic' piece that the guys have been arranging for quite some time now."
In the spirit of Halloween, Hot Topic asked a number of musicians — including members of CHILDREN OF BODOM, ROB ZOMBIE, LAMB OF GOD and BUTCHER BABIES — about paranormal experiences and haunted venues
The not-safe-for-work version of "Party Like Tomorrow Is The End Of The World", the brand new video from Los Angeles glam-metal jokesters STEEL PANTHER, can be seen below. (Warning: The video includes partial female nudity.) The clip includes celebrity cameos by "Jackass" star Steve-O, porn icon Ron Jeremy, "Breaking Bad" actor RJ Mitte and MMA fighter Chuck Liddell.
Mahakala; a band that made a spectacular impact on the Greek music scene. Metalpaths recently caught up with Jim (bass,vocals) to talk about everything and everyone; from the debut album of the band to the line up changes and from the massive live shows to his side-project Black Soul Horde.
In the 70’s, worshiping Satan in rock music was a common thing. Occult rock and metal got their traits from the 70’s and a whole heavy metal culture is based on it. Devil symbolizes freedom and opposition to everything the system dictates. Our times, can actually be characterized as the Renaissance of occult music, a back to the roots beginning.
The review of the band that released the best album of 2011, the omnipotent crushing album ‘’The Destroyers Of All’’, is a great responsibility for me personally and I am lucky enough to be able to witness the evolution of New Zealand based Ulcerate in its whole.
This is it! The end of Ministry for good. After reforming suddenly when we thought ‘’The Last Sucker’’ would be their last album, Al Jourgensen and Co. released a great album called ‘’Relapse’’, toured extensively for it and the lucky ones (including me also) had the chance to see them live at last.
Studied Business Administration, Panagiotis is Metalpaths' founder and editor-in-chief. He still believes that can be the... guiding light to extreme music (NOT!) and he would die to see a Pantera reunion show.
