When All That Remains singer Phil Labonte decided to speak with Revolver about his previous choice of words to describe the Black Veil Brides’ appearance, we knew it would spark debate. What we didn’t expect, though, was to find ourselves having a discussion about the matter with Chimaira frontman Mark Hunter via Twitter. Hunter made [...]
This past weekend was a big one for metal in New York City. It all started on Friday night, when Dethklok came to town with Machine Head, All That Remains and the Black Dahlia Murder on the last date of their tour together. And while Machine Head had switched set order to let All That [...]

Last week, video emerged online of Lamb Of God’s Randy Blythe performing with Jamey Jasta at the Webster Underground in Hartford, CT.
