The 2011 version of Heavy MTL was one of the most monumental metal fests of all time, with every second still burned into our brains. We’ve lost some of the metal greats from that festival, including Lucker and Lemmy, but their memories live on in our solid metal hearts, eh? Here are some of our […]

Following on the tail of Machine Head’s fantastic show at the House of Blues: Behemoth, with Cannibal Corpse. While nothing will ultimately compare with our Behemoth experiences on the Barge to Hell, this was a lot closer to home.

Route: Miami to Nassau to Miami, but the stop in the Bahamas was just a place to fuel up and grab a donut–this cruise was all about the metal. And about […]

South by Southwest (SXSW), French Quarter Festival, and Jazz Fest, all past and we’re looking forward to Essence Fest 2012 and Voodoo Fest 2012 (local commitments having deprived of us of a chance to cover Heavy MTL and Osheaga in Montreal this year). Here’s a more detailed look at SXSW 2012, which we covered for […]
