Motionless In White: Infamous

Motionless In White Infamous    There are certain bands and sub-genres in the Metal music world that all fans are united by a love for. Metalcore however, is not one of those sub-genres. Although it is becoming an increasingly popular side of Metal music due to bands such as Bring Me The Horizon, Architects and Parkway Drive, there is no doubt that for some people it is still fashionable to dislike Metalcore. Despite this, Metalcore has evolved, developed and drastically increased in the number of bands under this sub-genre over the last few years. This new wave has seen bands such While She Sleeps, Devil Sold His Soul and Bury Tomorrow erupt into immense popularity and success. Motionless In White are one of those bands.     Infamous is the follow up to debut album, Creatures.

Stone Sour, House Of Gold And Bones: Part 1

STONE SOUR House Of Gold And Bones: Part 1    As far as come backs or grand returns go in the music world today, this is by far the greatest since Iron Maiden's 2000 return album, Brave New World.

The bands first casualty was bassist Shawn Economaki, who left the band earlier this year.

Axewound: Vultures

   AXEWOUND   VULTURES    Ever wondered what could be better than Bullet For My Valentine or Cancer Bats? Well how about the two of them blended together in one fantastic new super band that prove just how alive metal is in 2012.                                Axewound's unique sound is a mixture of Metal core, Death and Thrash metal in equal measure. Liam Cormier from Canadian metal kings Cancer Bats, takes the spot light of Axewound. With Liam's savage screams and unique vocal style, it quickly becomes obvious why he is front man. Matthew Tuck from Welsh Titans Bullet For My Valentine, takes a step back from his normal vocalist day job and focuses on throwing out riffs at an machine gun rate. Songs such as "Cold", "Exorchrist" and "Burn Alive" see Matt step up to lend a hand with vocals, resulting in some of the catchiest choruses ever created. "Collide" is the quietest song on the album and on this track Matt takes the main voca
