Every Time I Die facing legal action over Twitter pranks
Every Time I Die may be facing legal action over the series of pranks the band posted last week when promoting their upcoming new DVD, "Shit Happens: The Series".

Blackguard sign with Victory Records
Montreal’s Blackguard have announced that the band has signed with Victory Records. The band posted: We are very pleased to announce our signing to Victory Records!

That being said we are hard at work completing our next record which has a tentative release date for April . The release will coincide with a North American tour that isn't announced yet, but when it does it's going to turn heads.
