Rapper Tech N9ne is no stranger to metal. The rapper has gotten System of a Down’s Serj Tankian to appear on a song, as well as Slipknot and Stone Sour’s Corey Taylor. He even shows up on Five Finger Death Punch’s album via their cover of LL Cool J’s “Mama Said Knock You Out.” So […]

This past Sunday, Scour made their live debut in New Orleans. The supergroup, which features Philip Anselmo along with members of Pig Destroyer, Cattle Decapitation and Decrepit Birth, released a six-song EP last year, and to pad out their first live set, they played Pantera’s “Strength Beyond Strength.” Not surprisingly, a combination of some awesome […]

Superjoint, Battlecross and Child Bite recently wrapped up several weeks of touring. A few years back, Battlecross did a cover of Pantera’s ’90s anthem “Fucking Hostile.” Was it a foregone conclusion that Anselmo would get up onstage and cover it with the band? No, no it wasn’t, but Phil got up and did it anyway […]

Phil Anselmo can easily coast off of the fruits reaped from his time as lead vocalist for one of the biggest metal juggernauts of the past 25 years. Instead, Anselmo’s post-Pantera career has seen him wrangle every non-mainstream drop of musicality that he can possibly consume – see Arson Anthem, Phillip H. Anselmo […]

It’s been 13 years and several public scandals, since Phil Anselmo released any music under the Superjoint Ritual moniker. Members Joe Fazzio, Michael Haaga, and Hank Williams III did not return for the band’s reunion in 2014, and neither did “Ritual.” Simply called Superjoint, version 2.0 of the band found drummer Joe Gonzalez (from Philip H. Anselmo & the Illegals) and Stephen […]

It’s been a rough year for Phil Anselmo, for obvious reasons. His racist outburst at the Dimebash overshadowed the legacy of Pantera’s late guitarist, and also that of his bands and label. And while he’s been keeping a low profile as of late, and cancelled Down’s Summer touring schedule in the wake of his actions. […]

Phil Anselmo has been in the news lately for all the wrong reasons. And while Down might be taking a bit of a hiatus from playing live shows while Phil spends some much-needed time out of the spotlight, that doesn’t mean that his fake-animated cooking show, Cooking Hostile, needs to. The Joey Siler-created show is back […]
