Tengger Cavalry brings an unusual touch to the metal world with their unique brand of Mongolian Folk Metal, and now they’ve signed with M-Theory Audio, a recently launched label by Marco Barbieri, former president of Century Media Records and Nuclear Blast America. The exotic sounds of the band, featuring founder Nature Ganganbaigal employing Ancient Mongolian throat-singing and several native instruments, including the Morin Khuur (an ancient fiddle), the Tovshuur (a Mongolian guitar) and the Mongolian flute, shows just why they’ve sold out dates along two headlining tours with over six studio releases under their belt. Barbieri says of the band, […]

Sabaton has been on the road around the world in light of The Last Stand, their most recent studio record that hit #1 in the Swedish Top 20 Rock Charts. They’re also holding records in 3 other positions in the charts, and the impressive level of album sales they’ve achieved has paid off in the form of Gold and Platinum plaque awards. The Last Stand hit #6 worldwide and #1 in Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, and Germany among others. On March 4, the band was honored with golden plaques for The Last Stand’s sales in the Czech Republic at Tipsport Arena, […]

With roots throughout Western Europe and some hard-hitting extreme metal to unleash, Implore is one of the latest additions to Century Media Records. The Berlin-based trio has been spreading their genre-blending Death Metal across the world since they formed in 2013, and they’ve got many a major festival under their belts, as well as over 200 live shows gaining fans in the brutal death metal, grindcore, hardcore, and crust punk genres, to name a few. Some EPs and demos have helped to do the job of spreading the word about Implore, alongside their debut full-length Depopulation from two years back […]

Arizona’s Tribulance may have had a share of trials and tribulations, forming in 1995 for a top 10 debut (called Trial and Tribulations) then disbanding in 1998 after industry shortfalls. 2012 saw the return of this old-school-influenced Heavy Metal band, rising from the ashes like a Phoenix – even though they’re from Tuscon – and the original founding members Michael Vidal, Sal Flores, and Gino Silva recruited drummer Brandon Lee to build their way back up into producing music that’s heavy and aggressive while still being melodic. On their style, Lee says, “I think what makes us who we are […]

A few years ago, Rammstein undertook a tour of epic proportions and for those who weren’t there to witness it in person (or for those who were and just want to see it again), a masterpiece of a concert film will be unleashed to the world in just a few short months. After being successfully shown in movie houses in 46 countries, “Rammstein: Paris” will be released as a director’s cut on DVD, Blu-ray, CD and Vinyl, as well as digitally on May 19th, 2017. The Made in Germany tour was the source of the footage captured by Swedish director […]

Within The Ruins recently teamed up with Loudwire for an exclusive reveal of their music video for the track “Objective Reality”. Halfway Human is the LP that holds this track, a release from Good Fight Music / Entertainment One (eOne) in North America and SPV overseas. The band’s very own studio provided the setting for the recording of this album, led by guitarist Joe Cocchi, then it was mixed and mastered by Joshua Wickman at Dreadcore productions. Album artwork and design was done by Justin Kamerer. Within The Ruins spent most of February and March on tour in support of […]

German Symphonic Metal band Xandria will be taking the US and Canada by storm in May, when they headline a tour for the first time in North America. They’ve just released their seventh studio album Theater of Dimensions (available through Napalm Records) which was highly anticipated as their first full-length record in three years. Two videos have also been released for the singles – a lyric video for “We Are Murderers (We All) feat. Björn Strid of Soilwork” and a music video for “Call of Destiny“. Kobra and the Lotus and Once Human are Xandria’s labelmates on Napalm Records, and both bands […]

April 28th marks the release date of their eighth studio album, “Madness”, and a US tour in support of it has just been announced, including some special guests. Korn, Five Finger Death Punch, The Devil Wears Prada, Fozzy, Kyng, and Sons of Texas will all be joining All That Remains on select dates throughout their tour.

A small tease of a possible tour was enough to keep Tool fans on their toes, checking the band’s website and social media for an official announcement. As if the word of a new album on the way wasn’t enough to keep the anticipation high, they then announced two festival appearances, and now at last – a nice little list of North American tour dates: May 24 – Fairfax, Virginia – EagleBank Arena May 27 – Bangor, Maine – Darling’s Waterfront Pavilion May 28 – Boston, Massachusetts – Harvard Athletic Complex May 30 – Rochester, New York – Blue Cross […]
