Several weeks ago, One Wing, the Chariots fifth album and first for Good Fight’s distribution deal with eOne Music, was released.

Metal Insider’s Top 5 is a column where we count down the top five of…well basically anything. Killswitch Engage’s performance at this year’s New England Metal & Hardcore Festival may have been the most buzzed about set from the weekend (and rightfully so).

Every Time I Die’s new album Ex-Lives has been getting rave reviews from many sites and publications. And seeing that it cracked the top 20 this week, we’d say most fans are enjoying the record as well. Apparently, though, that wasn’t enough for the Buffalo metalcore band, since they asked comedian Patton Oswalt to share [...]
