Legendary heavy metal band Black Sabbath will be premiering their first single “End Of The Beginning” on…CSI? Yup! Apparently the band was interested in premiering their track on the hit CBS show and executive producer Don McGill readily agreed. The band will be featured on the show as a concert performance attended by several of the show’s characters.

“When we first heard that Black Sabbath was interested in premiering a song on CSI from their first studio album in 35 years, we were all really excited. So many of us are longtime fans,” says McGill.

Black Sabbath will be releasing their new album 13 on June 11th. READ MORE

Opeth’s Mikael Akerfeldt Describes Two New Songs For Next Album

In a recent interview with Uppsala Student Radio 98.9, Opeth mainman Mikael Akerfeldt briefly described two new songs that are being written for the followup to 2011′s Heritage (review). He says that the first song is rather miserable yet beautiful. But the real interesting part is that he describes the second track as being heavily influenced by Italian prog rock band Goblin, who scored many of Dario Argento’s films, including the fantastic Suspiria.

Akerfeldt stated, “I have one new song, which I really like, a new song. It’s the most miserable song I ever wrote, and it’s beautiful, I think. And then I have a song that we jammed, actually, on tour. I came up with a little lick and became a bit of a director and just told everyone to play this and that, and we started jamming on something. And it sounded, immediately from the beginning, which was also my idea, it sounded like the band Goblin, if you heard them, the Italian band. So it’s a crazy riff, a GOBLIN rip-off, and the song is called “Goblin”, which is a good title, I think. And we’re gonna record it. I’m not sure if that will be too much of a fucked up song to be on the record, because there will definitely only be one song ever we do that is gonna sound like that. So maybe it’ll just be some extra thing that we have. But it’s really good; I love it. But then again, it’s just because of the closeness to Goblin.”

In a radio interview with Vancouver’s 99.3 The Fox, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich revealed that the band has plans to enter the studio to begin writing and recording the follow-up to 2008′s Death Magnetic this September. However, busy plans will make the process take a little longer than normal. For instance, the band was very busy putting together to two-day Orion Music + More festival that occurred just a few weeks ago. Due to the success of the inaugural year, the band will be bringing the festival back next year, which requires a lot of planning and orchestration.

Then there is the 3D Metallica movie, which is being helmed by Predators director Nimród Antal. The concert footage will be shot Aug. 24th and 25th on a massive 140′x50′ stage. According to Ulrich, the stage will have, “colossal components and striking visual elements spanning Metallica’s entire 30-year career.” The rest of the film will be shot in the two to three weeks that will follow these shows.

So what does all of this mean for the release date of the next Metallica album? Find out below! READ MORE

For the past few weeks, Swedish melodic metal band Katatonia have been posting studio updates for their new as-of-yet-untitled album, the follow-up to 2009′s fantastic Night Is The New Day. Well, earlier today, they updated their Facebook cover photo to the image you see above, suggesting that the new album has a tentative release date for this September. If this is true, consider me super excited. I still blast NITND in my car and have been a fan of the band since Viva Emptiness. Any new Katatonia music is always a good thing in my eyes.

Linkin Park has announced that they will be debuting Burn It Down, the first single off their upcoming, as-of-yet untitled new album, on April 16th. The band will also be releasing snippets of the song in the next few weeks on their website. I’m actually really excited to hear it because I’ve heard that they are going back to an older, more aggressive style. Fingers crossed!

Below is a video of Mike Shinoda announcing this information from the set of the music video shoot. Is it just me or does the background look like something out of Alien? There are some SERIOUS Giger vibes going on!

Beyond Dishonor Hitting The Studio This Summer: Announce Tour Dates

Hailing from Trenton, New Jersey, Beyond Dishonor is an unsigned five-piece metal band that is making big waves on the East Coast. Combining prog-metal, metalcore, and deathcore (so many genres!), these guys have been around for five years, have two albums under their belt, and are now gearing up to enter the studio this summer and record a new EP, tentatively titled This Is MADNESS. The band has also locked down several tour dates in Spring, which you can check below.

For a good laugh, I HIGHLY recommend you check out their video cover of Michael Jackson‘s Beat It below. It got more than one or two chuckles out of me.

Prog-metal/djent band Periphery have released Passenger, the first single from their upcoming album (as of yet unnamed and with no defined release date). The song is actually a rerecording of the Haunted Shores song of the same name. You can snag the song on iTunes.

All told, I’m not a fan of the new mix. The snare not only pops out of the mix a bit too strongly but it is also EQ-ed to a point where it sounds a bit piercing. The bass drum also has an incredibly similar tone to Meshuggah‘s Bleed. Still, as for the song itself, I’m enjoying it! It has a great mix of heaviness and melody and the chorus is ridiculously catchy. Check it out below.

greenday2012 Green Day Enter The Studio: Release Footage Of First Day Recording

Okay, I’m going on record here: I cannot stand Green Day. I bought Dookie on cassette when I was young and played the hell out of that. Great album, no doubt. Since then? Cannot stand them at all. They come on the radio and while my hand desperately seeks the tuner dial, my ears begin bleeding profusely.

That being said, I know that many of you are fans and I strive to deliver what my readers want. So, below you can check out a short clip of the band as they enter the studio to record their next album. Don’t expect too much, but if you’re a fan, I’m sure it’ll tickle your fancy.

Lately, what we’ve been hearing from the Marilyn Manson camp is basically news about how Ginger Fish left and replaced Joey Jordison in Rob Zombie. Just so you know, Chris Vrenna (ex-Nine Inch Nails, composer of American McGee’s Alice) is now the drummer for Marilyn Manson. Okay, back to the topic at hand. Marilyn Manson posted on his Facebook a short video entitled “I Am Among No One (excerpt from an undisclosed song with an unreleased title)”. It’s a bit of a mouthful, eh?

Cradle of Filth guitarist Paul Allender had this to say about the band’s new album, “I’m about half way through writing the material [for the new CRADLE OF FILTH album] and it’s turning out just the way I wanted it. I’ve mentioned to a few people that it’s a lot faster and heavier than [2008's 'Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder']. Well, to be honest, the new material has been taken up quite a few gears.”

I’ve never been a huge fan, but I thought their last album ‘Godspeed on the Devil’s Thunder’ (2008), seemed quite a bit faster than what I remember hearing before so it’ll be interesting to see how this turns out. On a side note, I just saw that the PRS SE Paul Allender Model guitar is now available in a pretty sweet looking Emerald Green… just in case you wanted to buy me an early Christmas present.

No better way to let people down than to hype them up first, Bullet For My Valentine is promising their ‘finest album to date’ which is expected to see a release first half of 2010.

“We are almost in the final stages of recording. It has been another long road but it’s been this long for a reason! There have been many obstacles along the way, lots of hard work and long hours in the studio. However, we think that we will produce Bullet For My Valentine’s finest album to date!!!”

bioImage Thier Finest Album to Date on its way From BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE

“We have written lots of material and we have narrowed down these songs to what we think are the best of the bunch! There are eight tracks recorded and finished so far, from some of the best stuff we’ve ever written. They have all the qualities that you would expect from Bullet but with ’something’ else. A twist! We are all blown away so far with how everything is going. Don Gilmore is an incredible producer and has really helped us develop our sound.

“We do apologize for how long the album is taking but we need this to be right, and we certainly don’t want to rush things and spoil it for your guys. We will get the album out as soon as possible. We will hit the road as soon as possible, and we will see all you crazy fuckers as soon as possible!” READ MORE
