I don’t know what’s up with Metal Injection, but they have been on a roll lately. They’ve come up with some of the funniest situations for band’s and have really added a nice spin of humor to the typical band interview. Just last month they post the terrific video where…
The most crucial element of composing noteworthy groove-centric metal is understanding the necessity of variety. Whether it’s Sepultura infusing Brazilian tribal music into each track or Pantera pacing out trashy groove assaults with opuses like ‘Cemetery Gates,’ those that wish to thrive in the genre must compose music that transcends mere mosh fodder. Enter A Life Once Lost, a Pennsylvania outfit returning from five years of studio silence with their latest effort, Ecstatic Trance, an album which fine tunes everything the band has accomplished on past releases to create an impressive result. ALOL’s previous affinity for redundant Lamb of God worship has evolved into djentless Meshuggah grooves infused with haunting melodies of the spiritual and Arabian variety.
Revocation are headlining a tour with A Life Once Lost and Ken Mode as support, which is pretty damn cool. Then there’s Scion A/V making this announcement- Not only are we putting out Revocation’s brand new EP, Teratogenesis, later this month, but we’re also sponsoring their upcoming tour with A Life Once…
Groove metallers A Life Once Lost are coming out with their first album in five years, Ecstatic Trance. We’ve been made familiar with their first single from the album, ‘Madness is God,’ twice already. Without wasting any time, the band want to ride this new wave of hype from their…
It won’t take a fan of A Life Once Lost to appreciate their psychedelic new cover artwork for their upcoming album Ecstatic Trance. First impressions mean everything, and a killer cover can — for better or worse — make or break an album in regards to drawing in new listeners.…
A Life Once Lost were one of those bands I’ve been a lazy dick about. You know, those bands that you’ve always heard about but never really got around to hearing for yourself? I’ve got many of them on my list and until today A Life Once Lost was among…

Intensus has got to be the cacophonous return of the mathcore aesthetic. I mean, how many mathcore bands other than Dillinger Escape Plan are still out there doing it and are getting this kind of attention? As far as I’m concerned, the mathcore trend sort of died out not long…
I have never heard of this Intensus before, but apparently it’s a one man free form improvisational metal project from Knife The Glitter’s Eli Litwin that sounds like the bastard child of The Dillinger Escape Plan and Anaal Nathrakh. Normally I skip over many new signings if I have never…
They’re only playing all of seven dates, but Atheist don’t tour around these parts as frequently as most of us would hope. Take this into consideration if you’re one of the lucky ones with the opportunity to catch this show. I’m pretty stoked that they’re bringing along Last Chance To…
