Metallica Announce Second Orion Music Fest, Krokus Return + More News

In a move that should shock no one given its success, Metallica's Orion Music + More Festival will return for a second year in 2013, albeit a different location. The heavily praised original was held in Atlantic City, New Jersey last summer.

The sequel will take place in Detroit, Michigan on June 8 and 9. The band issued a "save the date" video sharing this critical information, which you can watch below.

Krokus will release Dirty Dynamite on March 5. The track listing is below and you can check out the title cut, too. Consider it an early Christmas present from the '80s rockers. Our favorite title? "Better Than Sex." What could they be singing about? We'd say metal, since that's about the only thing better than sexings!

Track Listing:

"Hallelujah Rock 'n' Roll"

"Go Baby Go"

"Rattlesnake Rumble"

"Dirty Dynamite"

"Let the Good Times Roll"

"Help"

"Better Than Sex"

"Dög Song"

"Yellow Mary"

"Bailout Blues"

"Live Ma Life"

"Hardrocking Man"

[Press Release]

Terror will release Live by the Code in 2013. The hardcore band worked with Chad Gilbert (New Found Glory, Shai Hulud) on the album. More details will be made available shortly. If you like to mosh and get philosophical bout HxCx, then you're stoked about this news.

It's going to be a blackened late winter, as Cradle of Filth will tour North American in February and March, with The Faceless, Decapitated and The Agonist in tow. The nefarious Brit last set foot on American shores two years ago.
