The Devil You Know
Crawling out of the gate with a doom dirge blast from the subterranean hollows of 1970, Tony Iommi leads his aging troops into one more battle with a riff and a tone that could level Mordor. It's BLACK SABBATH, the Ronnie James Dio-fronted version of the band, although the new moniker provides both...April 28, 2009

Heaven Is Gone
If TYPE O NEGATIVE fans find themselves getting anxious during the four-year breaks between albums, imagine how certain members of the band feel during their downtime.

Everyday Demons
How many reviews of THE ANSWER's "Everyday Demons" do you think you'll read that don't make reference to "classic rock", Guitar Hero, the AC/DC tour, or all three? Probably most would be my guess (you obviously just read one here). That THE ANSWER has been hailed by many critics as the saviors of cl...April 28, 2009

War Metal Battle Master
Let's be honest here, the real reason you want to watch this DVD is because of the naked, blood-spattered Keres.

The band that has sated so many in the absence of CARCASS for all those years, Sweden's GENERAL SURGERY get tagged as the ultimate tribute act and it's usually intended as a high compliment.
