Wormrot Say Singapore’s Metal Scene Is ‘Unpredictable’
Recent Earache signees Wormrot have a lot to live up to. Hailed as both a much-needed return to the label's grinding roots and the heirs to now-defunct but always pissed Texan grind horde Insect Warfare's filth-encrusted throne, the grindfreaks behind 'Abuse' have more than proven themselves, releasing scores of demos and LPs on local DY labels and spreading their disease as far past the Singapor

"That was disgusting with a side of nasty," Humanity Falls guitarist Ammo Diaz said at the end of Disgruntled's set. Disgruntled -- a brutal grindcore duo with a monstrous grunting drummer -- played right before Humanity Falls and right after Grindbastard on Feb...

Misery Index Looking Forward to Touring With Magrudergrind
It seems like Relapse death squad Misery Index are always on the road, hitting that pavement hard to spread their biting social commentaries and politically-informed diatribes to the unwashed masses. They've recently announced a February/March tour with like-minded crucial moshers Magrudergrind, and they're gearing up to launch an attack on Noisecreep's home base, New York City, on March 20... Re

Baltimore's death merchants Misery Index are in the studio, no doubt putting the finishing touches on their next groove-death masterwork. And band members don't have to kill time in the studio while other members are tracking their parts; they simply don't hang in the studio when not needed...

At the Blvd Cafe, its walls adorned with pictures of performances past, Los Angeles' the Funeral Pyre played their last show ... of 2009, amidst a swirl of beer and black metal. Along with Oakland's Embers, in town while on a brief Southwest-ish tour, the mistitled bar-turned-café-but-still-a-bar saw a good two hours of black metal and beer prior to the Funeral Pyre retreating into writing/recordi

Misery Index Prove Metal Is Alive and Well at CMJ
When I entered the dark, cave-like Fontanas, Rhode Islanders Howl just finished moving their gear off the stage, which meant Complete Failure was minutes away from sonically demolishing a room full of CMJ-ers. It also meant I missed death metallers Gloominous Doom, who started the night off after Crystal Antlers, Nebula and Naam played the BrooklynVegan day showcase...
