Sybreed to release Challenger EP this April

Swiss Metallers Inbreed Sybreed have announced they have recorded a new song called “Challenger”, which will be released as part of an EP, for download on April 23 on iTunes. Three remixes from BAK XIII, Voicians and Drop (I really have no ideo who any of those are) will also come as part of the download.

This release is apparently to serve as a teaser of the kind of music the band are currently working on for the follow to 2010’s The Pulse Of Awakening. The band’s next album isn’t expected to be released until 2012, so hopefully it hits before the world ends.

Hangover Cure

So it’s officially now a Saturday morning, and many of you are going to be hungover right now. It’s the weekend, you’re off work, and you’ve gone and ruined it by giving yourself an almighty hangover. Congratulations stupid. Not to worry though, because a fantastic hangover cure can be found below. Similarly, it will also work wonders for the fat chick laying in your bed that won’t leave. You’re welcome.

Napalm Death – Scum

Live dosage

Because today is a slow news day, and I’m about as bored as my ex was whenever she was with me, it’s time for some random live Metal. And because I’m a great writer, I’m going to begin a sentence with the word “because” and then start another sentence with the word “and.”

What’s the live video for the day? Slaughter of the Soul by At the Gates, performed at 2008’s Wacken festival in Germany.

If you fancy seeing the reformed legends this year, you can check them out at Sweden’s Metaltown or England’s Bloodstock Open Air festival. More details can be found by googling “At the Gates [+]  dates 2011.”

Today’s Headlines

Today I feel like a tampon; I’m in a great place, but at a bad time. Why? Well, I’m in a great place because here I am writing for the best damn Metal site around, Dose of Metal. However, it’s a bad time for Metal news today, because there is fuck all going on. Fuck all good anyways.

First off, the chick from Within Temptation has apparently given birth. Why in God’s name would I care?I don’t, so moving on..

Second, Korn have gone Dubstep or something even lamer than they were previously. We’ve already reported on this, but I’m unoriginal like that.

Thirdly, Devildriver are awesome, so it is sad to hear that their bassist, Jonathan Miller, has left the band. His full statement can be read here.

Lastly, unfortunately Crowbar have had to pull out of Germany’s Summer Breeze festival, due to a death in the band’s closer circle which has forced them to change their plans for July and August. We wish the band the best of luck and our thoughts are with them.

Stay tuned to DoM to get all your Metal goodness. It’s like Porn, but with Metal, and without the crappy writing. Oh wait…

Morbid Angel reveal artwork

Morbid Angel, unfortunately not the name of a prostitute I’m sleeping with, but the Death Metal legends, have revealed the artwork for their new single and album.

Their new album, Illud Divinum Insanus will be released on June 7 in the US (June 6 internationally) via Season of Mist.

The artwork for said album, and their first single Nevermore, can be seen after the jump. I wouldn’t bother though, both look like they were drawn by my kid brother after he’s eaten a shit load of sweets.
