Unless you’ve been living under a rock since last summer, we don’t need to tell you about Baroness’ long road to recovery since their bus accident. However, it looks like that long road is about to get a little shorter with the news of Baroness Relief, a benefit auction set up by friends up the band. [...]
As we mentioned on Monday, Relapse director of retail sales and marketing and New York City metal fixture Pat Egan passed away earlier this week in a hospital after suffering complications from pneumonia. He touched the lives of many that he met, including countless bands he worked with. But as a lifelong metalhead, Egan loved [...]
Red Fang are streaming a brand new song, “Crows In Swine,” over at Vice. It’s pretty great. There’s no word on whether there’s anything new coming beyond this single, but if you like it as much as we do, you can head over to iTunes and pick it up there. In other news, they have announced [...]
Metal Insider’s Top 5 is a column where we count down the top five of…well basically anything. Earlier today, Between The Buried And Me officially premiered the first single off of their new album The Parallax II: Future Sequence. One of our favorite albums from the progressive metal group, however, still is 2007’s Colors. Now [...]
As this past weekend’s Orion Music + More festival kicked off, the first band to play the main stage of the festival was Baroness. The bigger stage was more than a little metaphorical, as their forthcoming album, Yellow and Green (due out July 17 on Relapse), should bring the Savannah, GA band to the next stage of [...]
This past weekend, Metallica presented the inaugural Orion Music + More festival in Atlantic City, NJ. Metal Insider’s Bram Teitelman, Zach Shaw and Kodi McKinney were there, as was MI contributor Alex Rudisill. We’ll be bringing you plenty of interviews from the show, but today is the first of two recaps, covering the first day’s festivities. [...]
Relapse Records have been one of the few well known metal labels to actively use Bandcamp. Now Relapse has become an even bigger supporter of the “name your price” online platform, having just uploaded their entire catalog on their page. Relapse’s Bandcamp page now features music from 122 bands, including Baroness, Dying Fetus, Pig Destroyer, [...]
If we were to have handicapped the final two slots of who would wind up playing Metallica’s Orion Music & More festival when it was first announced, we would’ve definitely had Baroness and Volbeat in the top ten. Baroness are now being managed by Metallica’s management company Q Prime, and with Yellow and Green coming out [...]
This morning, Metallica revealed the schedules for both days of the Orion Music & More festival (taking place on June 23 and 24 in Atlantic City). Along with the announcement, the festival also nonchalantly mentioned a new addition to the Damage Inc. stage: The Black Dahlia Murder. That’s right, the Detroit death metal group will [...]
Yesterday, it was revealed that drummer (and Howard Stern contributor) Richard Christy’s band had been added to the lineup of Metallica’s Orion Music & More festival. While the festival has yet to release a statement about the new addition, we reached out to Christy himself to get his reaction on getting added to Orion’s lineup. [...]
