Texas Hippie Coalition: Turn It Up Video
If you don’t know by now Texas Hippie Coalition are the preeminent skynyrdcore band on the planet.

Lamb of God Video: A Lesson In Groove And Geography
“Somewhere in Latin America…”—-really? Good thing this track has sweet brocals and grooves thicker than Beyonce’s bangin’ thighs. The director must assume most LoG fans think Latin America is a country or he/they are trolling. Lamb of God is actually surprisingly … Read the rest of this entry →

AHH It’s Gojira! And They’re Streaming The Title Track From “L’Enfant Sauvage”
First off, yes. Second off, about damn time. Like many of you I’m borderline postal from this new-ish approach of releasing teaser’s and studio wepisodes months before a single complete track. Thankfully, Goira have delivered. this song is a nice … Read the rest of this entry →

Pantera Video For “Piss”: Watch Some Fellas Headbang And Stuff
Vulgar Display of Power has always been a little polarizing even among Pantera fans. It was a far cry from the more traditional heavy metal of Cowboys From Hell. The trademark aggro-groove of the band’s later years was presented in … Read the rest of this entry →
Making A Meshuggah Of Things

Watch This Gurd Video!
Much to the ignorance of many, including myself, Swiss groovethrashers Gurd have released 10 full-length albums since 1994. This video takes me back to when side scroll video games were the bee’s knees. It’s not all that new but worth … Read the rest of this entry →

The following four artists may lie just beyond the radar of today’s busy on-the-go metalhead. Though these wouldn’t make it into a top 15 of 2011 for me, they are undoubtedly some of the most solid, consistent and purposeful records … Read the rest of this entry →
