Tag Archive: Misery Index


Metalsucks tipped us off yesterday (via Metal Injection) that Pig Destroyer‘s new drummer is Misery Index‘s Adam Jarvis. I wasn’t even aware that Pig Destroyer was even needing a drummer, but they’ve certainly landed a suitable one. There’s not much in the land of grindcore that I’ll get super excited for, but the idea of a new Pig Destroyer record with Jarvis’ unrelenting drumming talents is certainly creating some anticipation.

Not much about Pig Destroyer’s upcoming album is known now, but it’ll probably be out by the first half of 2012. It’s gonna be pretty damn sweet.

Hardcore giants, Madball plan to enter the studio in July with Erik Rutan (Misery IndexCannibal Corpse) to record their new full length, Empire. It’s expected to come out this Fall via Good Fight Music. Now normally I would try to think up some clever commentary about the matter but this speaks for itself, I’m STOKED!

Conducting From The Grave have been on the road, melting faces on the Facemelter tour with Dying Fetus, Arsis, Misery Index, and Annotations of an Autopsy. While out on tour, they’ve had a new vocalist on board and have been trying out new songs, which can be seen below.

The songs sound good, musically, but I’m not too fond of the new vocalist. I’m looking forward to the upcoming album though, and I’m sure everything sounds tight on there.

CFTG’s new album is due out later this year on Sumerian Records.

Number Blog Is Heavy!

In case some of you guys out there didn’t know, when I’m not busy with stuff over here, I also write from time to time for our bros at The Number Of The Blog. It appears that this weekend though, I’m all up in that shit. Here’s what went down:

On Friday, I joined EvilivE and DemiGodRaven again on The Number Of The Blogcast. We were short on news and it was just the three of us (with Spna15 in the chat), so the podcast ended up being the shortest so far, at just under an hour. Here was the playlist:

  1. Black Sabbath: Neon Knights
  2. Kiuas: Kiuassault
  3. Misery Index: You Lose
  4. Devin Townsend: (shhhh; it’s a surprise)
  5. Cyclamen: It’s There

Listen here: The Number Of The Blogcast (Episode 6)

I also filled in for Grover on Shitty Music Saturday. I listened to Breathe Carolina, and it wasn’t pretty.

I recently took over the Sumeriancore Sunday columns after ECDEU left. Last week, for the inaugural re-birth, I defined my idea of Sumeriancore and featured Painted In Exile. This weekend, I elaborated on my mission and featured I, Your Liege. So if you’re into bands like Veil of Maya, Born of Osiris, The Faceless, and Between The Buried And Me, there’s your place to be for new music.

So that’s what I’ve been up to this weekend. Go check some of that shit out! Thanks to the guys at The Number Of The Blog for being rad dudes and having me!
