Album Review: Spiritbox - 'Eternal Blue'

Oceanic-sized, emotionally heavy metalcore.

Rolo Tomassi release first new song in three years, 'Cloaked'

'Cloaked' is the first taste of Rolo Tomassi's next album and it makes me so fucking happy.

Every Time I Die's 'Post-Boredom', self-annihilation , & discovering your real self

'Post-Boredom' sees the most honest moment yet from singer Keith Buckley.

Ice Nine Kills put their spin on Child's Play with 'Assault & Batteries'

I9K proving that evil does indeed come in every size with 'Assault & Batteries.'

Brand Of Sacrifice recruit Underoath's Spencer Chamberlain for 'Enemy'

Spencer Chamberlain featuring on a deathcore band's new song is the great surprise I needed in 2021.

Sleep Token sail into some new waters with 'The Love You Want'

'The Love You Want' sees Sleep Token plotting a course into some fresh blue waters for their enigmatic sound.

Frontierer turn up the extreme chaos again with 'Glacial Plasma'

Frontierer continues to be one of the heaviest, most ridiculous math-metal bands around with 'Glacial Plasma.'

Deafheaven go beyond metal with 'In Blur'

Deafheaven ditch the black metal & lean full-tilt into shoegaze on 'In Blur' to great effect.

Rivers Of Nihil get progressive and psychedelic on 'Clean'

Rivers Of Nihil work hard but riff harder on 'Clean.'

'Hallelujah': Underoath share second track from new album 'Voyuerist'

Rejoice: New Underoath album 'Voyuerist' coming in 2022.

Dying Wish mourn personal loss with latest single 'Until Mourning Comes'

One of metalcore's bright new hopes, Dying Wish, continue to write emotionally honest, ass-beating songs
