Today’s Song of the Day is the song “Wine & Water” by Swedish Metalcore band Imminence. Simply from a few seconds into the song, it’s clear that this band deserves more attention. Every once in a while, you’ll come across a band or a song that evokes a certain emotion in[...]
Signed to Sumerian Records, Structures is a ‘djent’/progressive metal band that very quickly made a name for themselves. Today’s pick, “In Pursuit Of” comes from the 2011 release Divided By. This song combines sections of ridiculously heavy chugging and pitch bends with fast riffs and drumming to create a sound that you want[...]
Musicians generally enjoy listening to technical music. That’s just what this band, Protest the Hero, writes; Music for musicians. This band is incredibly unique. They’ve been around for a while, but the reason I’m giving them the Song of the Day is because I feel like a lot of people have[...]
After the release of 2009′s Artifacts in Motion, Circle of Contempt seemed to fall out of the metal scene for a few years. But, after signing to Sumerian Records, Circle of Contempt release a new EP on December 11, 2012 entitled “Entwine the Threads.” This EP was especially exciting for me due[...]
Today’s Song of the Day goes to “Cretaceous Chasm” by the instrumental band Blotted Science. If you haven’t heard this band yet, holy crap, stop reading and play the video above.

This song, “Anodyne Sea” is taken from As I Lay Dying‘s 2010 release The Powerless Rise. This entire release is fantastic, offering a great middle ground for both die-hard metal fans and people who just occasionally listen to the genre. The clean and lighter sounding choruses give a break in between the[...]
Instinct is the long-awaited second album from deathcore band As Blood Runs Black. The second album didn’t receive the same attention that 2006 release Allegiance did, probably in part due to the former vocalist’s replacement by Sonik Garcia. Regardless, Instinct still should receive more attention than it does. There was a generous[...]
The HAARP Machine released their debut album Disclosure on October 16th, 2012 via Sumerian Records. Many metal fans (including myself) couldn’t wait for this album’s release. The band streamed this song, “Pleiadian Keys” early and it got a lot of fans pumped up. But…the band (or at least its former members) had a[...]
To celebrate the release of Within the Ruin‘s Elite (view here), our song of the day for today is dedicated to them! “Solace” is the second track off of Elite and a very strong start to the album. This song includes all of the elements that Within the Ruins fans are looking for this[...]
Upon A Burning Body‘s latest release Red. White. Green. is such a ridiculously fun album to listen through. There is a great sense of flow throughout the entire album and you can tell the band really went for an angry and brutal tone for this release. Needless to say, it comes through.[...]
