While the lineup for the 2013 Rockstar Energy Uproar Festival hasn’t been announced yet, we’re hearing from a reliable source that Jane’s Addiction, Alice In Chains, Coheed & Cambria and Circa Survive will be among those playing this year’s incarnation of the Festival. It would definitely make sense for Alice In Chains, as their highly [...]

Last week, Guns N’ Roses surprised many when announcing an appearance at this year’s Governer’s Ball. Well as it turns out, that wasn’t the only festival performance in the works as Axl Rose and his new gunners have also been confirmed for this year’s Rocklahoma. Taking place on May 24, 25 and 26 at “Catch [...]

The lineup for the 2013 Rock on the Range festival has been announced for May 17-19. While it’s taking place again in Columbus OH, you could be forgiven for thinking that it’s taking place in the Pacific Northwest in the ’90s, as Alice In Chains and Soundgarden are among the headliners.

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. You’d think that Aerosmith’s first album in 8 years would be an event.

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. While most of the East Coast is still struggling during the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, album sales across the board experienced a nice boost.

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. Yeah, we know, we’re a little late on this, but better a little late than never. Plus, if you live on the East Coast, you probably don’t have electricity anyway. At any rate, Dethklok [...]

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. We’ll be blunt: there were a crap load of albums debuting this week, most of them highly worth noting. We over here at Metal Insider see this week’s charts as an indication that it [...]
