The second season of Taiwan’s professional baseball league kicked off on July 5, with CHTHONIC being invited by the team The Brother Elephants as guests of honor to throw the first pitch. Thunderstorms that afternoon had delayed equipment preparation and the band was forced to perform their rendition of Queen’s “We Are the Champions” without any sort of soundcheck. Fortunately, CHTHONIC -- bedecked in specially designed uniforms -- completed the mission with great success, as the rapturous crowd reaction so poignantly confirmed.

Boasting an original, inventively dread-inspiring style of audio torture, Auckland, New Zealand-based death metal trio ULCERATE has completed the final stages of preparation for the pending release of their fourth horrific masterpiece, and first for Relapse Records.
Since their 2009 debut on Neurotic and two subsequent LPs through Willowtip, ULCERATE has strived to continually hone and contort their death metal attack, their sound ever-evolving into harsh new realms of turmoil, melding mechanical and organic elements into their haunting, blast-strewn explosiveness.
New York metal alchemists, A STORM OF LIGHT, will unleash their long-anticipated new studio offering this Fall! Entitled Nations To Flames, the 11-track follow up to the band’s critically-lauded 2011 opus, As The Valley Of Death Becomes Us, Our Silver Memories Fade, was recorded with Travis Kammeyer (OCOAI, Generation Of Vipers) at Fahrenheit Studios in Johnson City, Tennessee, mixed with Matt Bayles (Isis, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Botch, Mastodon) at Red Room Recording in Seattle, Washington and mastered by Brad Boatright (Sleep, >From Ashes Rise, Nails) at Audiosiege in Portland, Oregon.

Mit Trauer und Bestürzung erreichte uns gestern die Nachricht, dass der US Sänger, Songwriter und Musiker Brett Walker gestern verstorben ist. Just einen Tag nach der offiziellen Pressemitteilung für sein demnächst bei uns erscheinendes neues Album „Straight Jacket Vacation“ erscheint es irgendwie bizarr, dass dieser begnadete Künstler nun nicht mehr unter uns weilt.
