So here are today’s headlines, you lucky bunch.
California lolcore deathcore band Suicide Silence were recently interviewed at the Revolver Golden Gods Awards. The video can be viewed here. What did they talk about? I have no clue. I don’t care either way, I’m too busy eating Cadbury Mini Eggs and watching this clip over and over.
Kunvuk released their their debut, ‘Immute:Jackals‘, on September 16th/2010. I guess no one bought it, so they decided to give the album out for FREE! It seems like a new trend these days, where unknown bands are releasing full albums for nothing. It makes sense, since touring is how metal bands make money these days. Let’s hope people that will download this, will also end up at one of their shows.
Steve “Lips” Kudlow from Anvil recently admit that the band finally are making money for the first time in 30 years
What has essentially happened is that I no longer work my day job. I’m making my ends meet from the band. Am I making more? I don’t know, probably. But it’s not like I’m buying a limousine. I’m existing and not having to worry about going to a job. And that’s great; I’ve worked 30 years to get there.
Good for them. My only issue is Lips complaining over and over in the documentary about “not making” it. I mean, that stuff happens all the time in the business. A lot of times, good bands never get notice, ever – sometimes you get lucky. That’s life in the metal world. By the way, in case you missed it a few days ago, you can hear a new song from Anvil here.
As usual, Max Cavalera is hoping the original Sepultura lineup will one day reunite. He didn’t exactly say it in those words, but it’s rather obvious he wants the reunion when you read this interview, or any Max Cavalera interview over the last ten years.
And that’s it for today, make sure you stay tuned to Dose of Metal for your daily dose of awesomeness!
