LA based groove metal artist DIVINE ERA has released his third full length album, Scripture Codes Summon Suicidal Thoughts, an 11 track, intensely layered collection of face melting metal tracks.

 
 
“Divine Era’s music is strongly influenced by Pantera and old Machine Head. This newest album, “Scripture Codes Summon Suicidal Thoughts,” definitely has that old school heavy metal vibe. I sing and scream throughout the groovy riffs entwine with calculated drum patterns.
I love playing guitar solos. You will hear plenty on this LP. I’m not much of a shredder. I do my own thing with …

…we consider this a new beginning. The beginning of much more hard work and promotion to come.

Santiago, Chile based metal band Half Blood have released their Official Video for “Self Exile”, the second single off of their self-titled, debut album due out later this year.

We were really tired about the empty lyrics of pop music, even on the metal scene in some cases, there’s so much happening around the world right now and it seems that it didn’t care, true pain, true horror, but all that matters now are how big is your ass or how much money do you have playing like a fake gangsta, so fuck …

“This song is about one of the toughest times in my life with a a long-term relationship ending and just coming to the realization that it was time to move on, whether we wanted to or not.

This year, the ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL has invited several of today’s hottest acts in hard rock and heavy metal to perform on select dates in the place of specific ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL artists that will not be performing…

ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL, the heralded hard rock and metal event of the summer, is swiftly becoming the heavy music fans’ summertime rite of passage. Today, the 4th annual summertime juggernaut announces the 2011 line-up with DISTURBED, GODSMACK and MEGADETH, joined by MACHINE HEAD, IN FLAMES, TRIVIUM, and many more of today’s most electrifying artists.

The Rockstar Mayhem Festival is the Shangri-La for metal heads and for many of us the concert highlight of the year. It is bigger, louder, and more freakin badass than anything else running. Mayhem is actually so freakin cool I quit my last “real” job to hop on the Mayhem wagon train for the 2008 tour as a media type dude. Rockstar Mayhem Festival is a showcase where the icons of metal come together with the brightest new stars. The Rockstar Mayhem Festival 2009 brought the legends, the brutal new metal stars, and some guaranteed crowd favorites out in force. Marilyn Manson, Slayer, Killswitch Engage and Bullet For My Valentine played on the main stage and the likes of Cannibal Corpse, Behemoth, Job for A Cowboy, Black Dahlia Murder, Trivium, All That Remains, God Forbid and White Chapel played the other 2 stages.

The first time I heard Fear Factory I was working in a cube farm for one of those soul assimilation companies. I remember putting Fear Factory’s second album Demanufacture in the CD player and slapping on the head phones and having a 45 minute HOLY SHIT! moment.
