Epica make way to the UK

“Epic” Scandinavian female-fronted symphonic Metallers (God, more Scandinavian female-fronted symphonic bands?) Epica have announced some UK tour dates for next year.

Read the dates after the jump to find out which towns to avoid and when.

Crowbar's severed hand

Crowbar is this site’s favorite tool. Why? Because crowbar’s a good measurement of a daily dose of metal to beat people over head with. The band Crowbar is not bad either, they’re just as metal, and they serve the same purpose. They have a new album, “Sever the Wicked Hand,” coming out on February 8th, 2011. Make the jump to see some album artwork and fan footage of a new song being performed.

Severed Fifth's campaign

No, the band hasn’t joined any political party, and this has nothing to do with any elections… As it has been announced on their website, Severed Fifth are campaigning to make a professional studio recording. And they need your help. In return, the band promises to keep the music free, and depending on your level of input, you get something in return. Read on for details.

Pretty Hate Stream

Nine Inch Nails‘ current rip-off project, the re-master/re-release of their first album, “Pretty Hate Machine” has been posted online for streaming. It also contains an extra track, a cover of Queen‘s “Get Down, Make Love“. Get down, check the link, and play a game of “spot 10 differences” between this and the original.

Helloween are big in Japan

Not really, but put this song in your head, didn’t I? I actually like that song, but then saw Alphaville live and almost got ear cancer.

Anyway, yeah, Helloween released a new album and the results are in! Well, how can I put this? They’re no AC/DC… They sold 1,900 copies in the United States.
