5. FUCK THE FACTS

Fuck the Facts are my hometown heroes. I enjoy this logo for it’s symmetry and because it looks like a ransom note. It has a the vibe of a carnival that’s been hacked up by an axe murderer. I don’t have a lot to say about this one, but it pleases my eyes.

I Have No Idea What “Avdotya” Means, But It’s A New Arsonists Get All The Girls Song!

Filed Under: New music, Upcoming releases

Mar.24, 2011

Yay, a day for new music!

Arsonists Get All The Girls are streaming a new song, “Avdotya,” over on their facebook page. The song is exactly how you’d expect AGATG to sound after 2009′s Portals—awesome. Spastic and proggy deathcore riffs with quirky keyboard leads are in abundance. It’s good to know they aren’t straying too far from the path. If the album is anything like the single or Portals, then it will definitely be “album of the year” potential.

Motherland will be available May 17th on Century Media.

Arsonists Get All The Girls Return To The Motherland

Filed Under: Tours and Rumors of Tours

Mar.16, 2011

Here’s another North American spring tour to get excited about! The Return To The Motherland Tour, featuring Arsonists Get All The Girls, A Plea For Purging, Lionheart, The Contortionist, and Volumes. Typically, no matter how awesome some of the bands on a tour may be, there will also usually be one or two bands on the bill that blow. This tour is an exception though; even though I don’t love every band, there aren’t any that I hate either (except maybe Lionheart, but that’s more because of my personal musical tastes). Of course, I’m most excited to see The Contortionist again, because they put on an amazing show, and Exoplanet is awesome. This is going to be a great tour, so don’t miss it! You can check out the dates after the jump.

Arsonists Get All The Girls – Portals [Prog-Metal March: March 6th]

Filed Under: Prog-Metal March

Mar.06, 2011

Portals is an underrated album and was most definitely one of my favorites from 2009. That album saw a more serious and progressive turn for Arsonists Get All The Girls, which will hopefully continue into their new album, which is due out later this year!

Norma Jean Are Consistently Stunning Live

Filed Under: Live, Reviews

Mar.04, 2011

As I promised when I posted about this tour back in January and saw Norma Jean play at the Nile Theater live on March Second for their Explosions II tour, here’s a review of the gig.

Just as expected, Norma Jean did not disappoint. Their set was pure energy with every member playing their heart out, lead by their very passionate front man Cory Putman. I’m going to try to piece together the show as best as I remember it. I won’t have you believe this is exactly how their set list was played. I’m too active a concert-goer to take notes. I headbang, I jump, and I scream every lyric I know when I’m at a small-venue concert.

Arsonists Get All The Girls Entering The Studio

Filed Under: General News, Upcoming releases

Dec.17, 2010

When it comes to deathcore, there’s a handful that does it right. Arsonists Get All The Girls, despite their silly name, are one of these bands that combine the deathcore style with experimental and progressive aspects to make something at least half-way unique in delivery. In fact, Portals was one of my favorites of 2009 (behind BTBAM and Devin Townsend Project of course).

AGATG are sitting on a new album and preparing to hit the studio to track what will sure to be a HBIH chart-topper for 2011. Check out the press release:

California’s purveyors of both metal fury and fun ARSONISTS GET ALL THE GIRLS are set to head into the studio and are recording their new album with Zack Ohren at Castle Ultimate. The as-yet-untitled will be their third slab of craziness for Century Media and fourth overall but, this time, vocalist Jared Monnette says the band is developing a brand new sound:
