Time To Restore Some Order Up In This Bitch

Jul.18, 2011

That’s right you bunch of mouth-breathing, gorilla-faced window lickers; I’m back! For anyone who is interested, I went to one of the rainiest places in England and had six days of solid sunshine. Suck it.

Seems like I missed some good shit. We had sixty seconds of new Mastodon that got Jimmy a bit wet in the nether regions. Aliases got covered in some sort of green Hulk-jizz. Wolves In The Throne Room released some wordy bollocks about their new album, and we learned that we are all big fucking hipsters. Big surprise.

In my eagerness to go on my first holiday in four years, I neglected to announce the winners for the “No Place Like Home” competition from a couple of weeks ago. Fear not though; the votes are in, and we’ll be announcing them a bit later.

We also started a super-exciting competition last week to win two pairs of tickets, plus a lucky meet-and-greet for Slayer and Rob Zombie‘s show in Vancouver, Canada. So, you know. Get on that.

So here we go with another week. Got some good stuff for today; enjoy!

…As Well As The Slayer, Rob Zombie, and Exodus Tour.

Filed Under: General News, Tours and Rumors of Tours

Jul.11, 2011

This one, I’m even later in covering—about four months late, to be precise. I had never even heard about this tour until it was brought to my attention recently, so I decided I should bring it to yours as well. Better late than never, of course!

Slayer and Rob Zombie are teaming up to do a co-headlining Hell on Earth Tour, which hits 12 dates later this month through early August, and they’re bringing seminal thrash band Exodus in tow for support. We cover a lot of newer music and prog here on Heavy Blog, but not nearly enough traditional metal and thrash (you should hit up our pals That Devil Music for all of those needs). Hopefully we can rectify that here soon. If this tour seems like more your bag, then you need to act fast:

Jul. 20 – Sovereign Center, Reading, PA
Jul. 22 – DTE Amphitheatre, Detroit, MI
Jul. 23 – Stage AE, Pittsburgh, PA
Jul. 24 – Heavy T.O. at Downsview Park, Toronto, ON Canada
Jul. 27 – MTS Centre, Winnipeg, MB Canada
Jul. 29 – Credit Union Centre, Saskatoon, SK Canada
Jul. 30 – Scotiabank Saddledome, Calgary, AB Canada
Jul. 31 – Rexall Place, Edmonton, AB Canada
Aug. 02 – Save-On-Foods Memorial Center, Victoria, BC Canada
Aug. 03 – Rogers Arena, Vancouver, BC Canada
Aug. 05 – Rose Quarter Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR
Aug. 06 – WaMu Theatre, Seattle, WA

You can grab tickets over at Ticketmaster while you still can!
