After a long weekend of playoff basketball, we're back for the start of another week here at Noisecreep, and we're expecting it's going to be a busy one. Either that, or an especially long week. Every week leading up to a three-day weekend feels excruciatingly long to us...

What a weekend! Restful, sun-soaked, and abounding with baseball, breakdowns, and barbecues. Like any good weekend should. But now, its back to the grind. Noisecreep has a busy week ahead, too. We'll be bringing you some exclusive news from Devin Townsend, plus our interview with the Chariot, and we've got Iwrestledabearonce stopping by the office this week to talk about their new album, "It'

It's Tuesday morning, and we've got some killer news to bring you, to start your day off right: Tony Iommi, Ronnie James Dio, Geezer Butler, and Vinny Apice - or, as they're known to us lay folk, the esteemed Heaven and Hell - will be touring North America later this summer, and the first U...

Man, did this past weekend fly by. But don't they always seem to fly by? We're reaching the end of April, which means we're getting closer and closer to summer festival season. We're also right around the corner from a flurry of new releases, and today, we'll be bringing you the latest on what's coming soon to a record store near you...

Entering its second decade, the New England Metal and Hardcore Fest has flip-flopped through the years, between being a two or three day event.

While music industry heavyweights scramble to figure out a new business model and a more effective delivery system in the wake of declining physical CD sales, Pennsylvania's Zao have responded to market conditions with their first album in nearly three years, 'Awake...

Happy tuesday. Enjoy these links from our brothers and sisters in metal. See something awesome? Let us know. + Chris Cornell spoke a bit about Soundgarden. A reunion show would be amazing, Chris. Come on! + Born of Osiris have an album coming out in June...

To be fair, Chris McCaddon, singer of Famine, has nothing against death metal bands. It's those "death metal bands" he has a problem with. "A band, who will not be named, they just show up and don't know anything about their gear or about music," McCaddon told Noisecreep in our New York office...

San Diego's As I Lay Dying have a wonderful and more than excusable reason for their absence on the first five shows of the Lamb of God No Fear Energy tour, where they are main support alongside Children of Bodom. Singer Tim Lambesis has to miss the dates since he's finalizing the adoption process for a baby...

Lamb of God guitarist Mark Morton couldn't be more humble about his band's latest, bone-liquefying album 'Wrath' landing at the prestigious #2 position on the Billboard sales chart and moving over 68,000 units upon its February 24 release. But in typical LOG fashion, the band chalks the victory up to a pure love of making music...
