Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. Well, this is certainly heftier than last week. Just like I said it would be. As is common for large debut lists, you’ve got band’s making comebacks, a few EP’s, younger bands trying to […]

In an unusual move, the album features contributions from all nine Haste The Day members from their 2001-2011 existence. This includes both defining vocalists Jimmy Ryan (2002-2005) and […]

While Haste the Day got off to a great start with the crowdfunding campaign for their new album, in just 10 days, they’ve easily surpassed the $65,000 goal they’d set, and still have 21 days left. They’re up to $75,424, which is 116% of their initial goal. It’ll be interesting to see what the final tally is.

The band will be recording with both incarnations of their lineup. We caught up with […]

This week is jam packed with lots of new releases, including two juggernauts of gothic doom metal, seasoned veterans and fiery upstarts in hardcore, intense Viking death metal, and much more.

This week is going to be jam-packed with high-selling metal albums, I can already tell. The list of high-profile new records appearing today just seems to keep going on and on and on! It’s certainly exciting, but it also raises the question – is it possible to have too many big releases in one day? […]
