Through Shadows

Now that the whole tech-metal / djent surge has died down, its central protagonists are trying to forge new paths.

Songs Of Last Resort

As much as heavy metal loves a band that sticks around, longevity comes with one major disadvantage: people love change, people hate change, and people are never fucking happy.

Mid Death Crisis

Still voluntarily lost in the depths of a persona he first adopted at least 30 years ago, WEDNESDAY 13 knows exactly who he is.
