Musicians have found endless inspiration from All Hallows Eve's dark imagery, so to help celebrate the ancient holiday, Noisecreep has put together a list of the top 10 metal Halloween songs...

"Somewhere between Black Sabbath and Judas Priest lives a band you never heard of." This is the tagline for the trailer of the upcoming documentary film 'Last Rites: The Fall and Rise of Bobby Liebling'. The band in question is of course Pentagram, founded and fronted by Bobby Liebling...

This week Kiss released 'Sonic Boom,' the legendary rock institution's 19th studio album. The New York band looked at their past for inspiration on the new material and songs like 'Modern Day Delilah' and 'Hot and Cold' show that in their DNA...

According to news reports, Ozzy Osbourne was once diagnosed as being HIV positive. Now, don't read too much into that. Ozzy Osbourne does not have HIV -- and never has. Unfortunately, he was mistakenly diagnosed with the life-threatening disease not so long ago, and looking back on it now, Ozzy says it was "one of the worst days of my life...

But the truth is, vinyl might be a driving force, helping keep the aching music industry alive -- especially in the underground metal and punk community, which is what Eric Mueller from Pirate Press told Noisecreep in an intervie
