Elitist, one of the innovators of modern technical metalcore, has released a brand new song called “Vision Red”. Along with the release of the song came the announcement that their self-titled album will be released on June 30th. You can check the new song out after the jump. [youtube= This…
As a long-time fan of Misery Signals, I am absolutely stoked for their newest album Absent Light. Using IndieGoGo to fund album creation – and all the fun perks that come with it such as a tour cycle and merchandise – the band doubled their campaign goal by raising $104,060…
Elitist are one of those bands that I enjoy while hearing but don’t actively seek out. I think it might be because they’ve released nothing but singles and EPs so far, and it’s hard for me to care about releases that aren’t as relatively significant without a debut album already…
Scale The Summit have been touring fairly extensive the last couple of years, supporting pretty much every band ever. These instrumetallers really do get around, and it was only a matter of time before they had their own headlining tour. It had never occurred to me until now that these…

Cepheus [09/02/11] [Self-Released] Substructure are a space-themed progressive deathcore band from St. Louis. Yes, that’s a really small niche that is pretty much filled by The Contortionist, and if one is to be frank, the…
The end of October is looking to be pretty sweet.

And speaking of Elitist, they oh-so-kindly released a…
I know that specter is misspelled for those who get the rather blatant and lame Mass Effect joke, but whatever, it gave me a chuckle. But anyway, I’ve always considered Elitist to be head and shoulders above most of their metalcore peers, and this new song—which is entitled “Specter”—further proves…
Seems like this is the trend at the moment; talented musicians from fairly acclaimed bands writing solos albums in their down time, and this case, I can certainly say I’m all for it! Recently we’ve seen Evan Brewer of The Faceless (thumbs up) and Francesco Artusato of All Shall Perish…
After Jimmy asked you readers a tough question last week, I thought I’d ask an even tougher one on this day of freedom and tomfoolery: what are your favorite breakdowns? The breakdown is a simple concept to grasp, but difficult to use it to good effect to a song. No,…
