New Emmure Single

...-Core (as to not start fights) band Emmure has released a new single, and I am not gonna lie. I am really stoked on it. It took what I liked about The Respect Issue and Goodbye To The Gallows, and put it into this song. Their new album comes out relatively soon. I would buy it if I were you. It is gonna be sweet. Do it. NOW. DOOOOOOO IT. Anyway, heres the song...

Reading them would be greatly appreciated.

I am a very happy camper, seeing as how the Winterizer What-The-Butt-F**k-Ever Tour is coming up this Sunday. I was never a massive fan of the band The Chariot, but they are really talented with a lot of heart in their music. I feel like they are a cross between newer The Dillinger Escape Plan and older Norma Jean. Although I feel as though I may get clobbered by some big- ass cymbal, the live show should be fun. In this week's aptly named section "Video Of The Week" I have uploaded an example of why you should try and see them yourself. Josh Scogin is a beast. Funny that they are playing with Silverstein. Speaking of which, have you heard their new stuff?! Leaving Victory made them really cut loose. Check it out if you can.

More next time on....TALES OF INTEREST!!!!!!!!

Atreyu Goes On Hiatus

Remember way back in middle school when you had that one gateway band into heavier stuff? Or more legit stuff. Atreyu was that band for me. It kind of sucks in a way I suppose, though I have had no interest in the for an extended period of time. Enough rambling of me back when I thought tripp pants were kind of cool...

SO. The official word on the subject is that they are just tired of touring and they need a break after a very full 11 years as a band. Even though they need to die after turning on their roots (this may just be the part of me that doesn't like selling out talking) they will not. They are returning as soon as everyone is rested up and everything.

New Monsters S/ T

The new release from deathcore band Monsters has just been released through Franki Palmeri's record label False Prophet. If you want my completely honest opinion, it is definitely a little lack- luster. I was pretty excited for this album, but it is kind of forgettable. The first release they made was really good. It was catchy with some good tech parts. I just can't get into the whole I- am- gonna- rap- while- playing- this- breakdown kind of thing. Maybe it will grow on me. Who knows. Give it a try for yourself.

Some Non- sense

Sorry for the sporadic updating everyone. I have just been so busy with life OUTSIDE OF THE INTERNET. What blasphemy, right? Anyway. I manage to catch part of Greeley Estates at a show last night. They were alright but I ended up leaving because a few friends and I opted to go to Ihop instead. They weren't playing so well anyway.

A Great Suggestion: Do not, and I repeat do not dance in pac- sun jeans. I was dancing for a friends local band, and went to do a mule- kick. The next thing I heard was an awful ripping noise and I felt like I needed a musical number like in Spongebob. Cuz nobody ever wants to dance with the fool who went and... ripped his pants... It split down the leg all the way to my knee, and also right near my crotch. Not fun America, Not fun.

The Dillinger Escape Plan on Tour

A band with a truly indeterminable genre. If I had to give them one, it would probably be metal-pop-math-beer-steroid-insane-prog-post-fuckasscore.

Whitechapel Replaces Drummer

Deathcore enthusiasts Whitechapel will be replacing their former drummer Kevin Lane. The only reason I could seem to dig up so far is that he would like to return to school in their home state of Tennessee. He will be replaced by more- than- capable- ex- drummer of Knights Of The Abyss, Ben Harclerode. It seems that there is a lot of action stirring up with some of the older deathcore bands nowadays. I still hope Elysia gets back together.

Happy New Years!

Sorry it took me so long to make a new post. Along with the stress of trying to find a job and balancing my personal life I recently hadn't gotten around to updating this thing.

Nobody cares about this why am I talking....

ANYWAY
Hopefully 2011 brings in some more sweet albums just like 2010. I know in a few more days the Monsters debut comes out. The new Sea Of Treachery is pretty sick. Maybe not as good as previous works, but is still catchy.
