Check out the latest emerging super group. They're known as Devil's Highway. Comprised of Kyle Thomas (of EXHORDER, ALABAMA THUNDERPUSSY) on Vocals, Ralph Santolla (of OBITUARY, ICED EARTH, DEICIDE, DEATH) on Guitar Matt Brunson (of CROWBAR, KINGDOM OF SORROW) on Guitar Tony Laureano (of DIMMU BORGIR, 1349, NILE, ACHERON) on Drums and Steve DiGiorgio (of TESTAMENT, SADUS, ICED EARTH, DEATH) on Bass. The group seems to bring a ton of variety to the table and based on the teaser that they've released it seems as though it could come together nicely. Check out their first "unofficial" release entitled "Blighted Hous After going to Japan with Ralph, Tony and Steve [as the DEATH METAL ALLSTARS], we decided it was so much fun that we should make a real band."

Current Metallica guitarist and former member of Exodus, Kirk Hammett, lends his fingers to the thrash band for their latest single "Salt The Wound." Exodus is currently working on their tenth studio album BLOOD IN BLOOD OUT due out October 14th via Nuclear Blast. Singer Rob Dukes departed from the band back in June and since then has been replaced by Steve "Zetro" Souza. This album marks the first album the band is putting out with vocalist Steve Souza since 2004's Tempo of the Damned. Atreyu is a legendary band when it comes to metalcore. Many list them as an inspiration and some list them as one of the first bands they heard. In recent years Atreyu had went on a hiatus that lasted nearly three years. Well some big news for Atreyu fans: Atreyu is back and is giving you what deserve. The new single is called "So Others May Live" and was well anticipated from their diehard fans. You can check out the single below which is also available for a FREE DOWNLOAD courtesy of Atreyu themselves. 'So Others May Live’ is inspired by one of my best friends, who is ex-military. The things our troops go through to protect us are pretty unreal. Their treatment after leaves a lot to be desired, as well. The song honors them and condemns our government’s constant deployment of these brave souls. The people who fight and die for us often come from a certain socio-economic background – the working class. The people making these decisions to send our nation’s children to war come from positions of privilege and wealth; their kids aren’t the ones getting deployed and they aren’t risking their lives every day at work. Yet they order the working class to go ‘keep us safe’ at the drop of a hat, it feels like. It’s bullshit. It’s the politicians and the rich of this country waging war to keep the majority pre-occupied, so they can make money and advance their bullshit political agendas. The expense is ‘expendable’ working class/poor Americans’ lives, never the rich." Two new singles later Slipknot finally announces the new album in detail. The fifth album from the Iowa rockers is the first without bassist Paul Gray and drummer Joey Jordison. The album is titled .5: The Gray Chapter as an homage to the late bassist and is expected to be released October 21st. It's hard to think that it has been six years since the world first heard tunes like "Snuff," "Psychosocial," "Dead Memories," and "Sulfur." Back in 2008, I was a young boy who had still not seen Slipknot and I guess I waited too long. I eventually caught them on their second time headlining Mayhem Festival in 2012 without Paul Gray. The track listing for the album can be found below as well as the first two singles on the album. Slipknot will be on tour this winter with Korn and King 810.
Recently formed supergroup Killer Be Killed has released a music video for their latest single "Snakes of Jehovah." The supergroup is comprised of Max Cavalera of Soulfly, Greg Puciato of The Dillinger Escape Plan, , Dave Elitch from of The Mars Volta and Troy Sanders of Mastodon. The band released their first album in 2013 and we hope to see more from them. It's here. The brand new track from Slipknot has recently been released. "The Negative One" has been teased for the past two weeks. The album is starting to come together and it's about damn time that Slipknot's released something. I respect that the band has taken it slow after the death of Paul Gray but one would think that by now they would bring something new to the table. With the new single Slipknot does just that. Check out the new track below.
