  • Twin Temple Kicked Off Charley Crockett’s Tour Due To Satanic Imagery

    Twin Temple have been kicked off Charley Crockett’s upcoming tour. The band were removed from the trek due to their satanic imagery.

    Twin Temple said the following:

    “Today we were informed that Charley Crockett has decided to remove Twin Temple from his upcoming shows next week due to our Satanic imagery.

    Unfortunately, that means we will not be able to perform for you next week as planned. We are really disappointed as we were looking forward to getting back out and seeing you, and also what it meant as far as bringing different types of people and music lovers together. We are sorry to everyone who was planning to see us. We’re grateful for your support, not only of Twin Temple, but more importantly of artistic freedom. HAIL SATAN! 93/93″

    Crockett also commented via Rolling Stone:

    “I thought they were like Black Sabbath but they ain’t. Not today Satan.”

  • Southpaw FLHC Premiere “Nail In The Coffin” Music Video

    Southpaw FLHC have premiered a new video for their new song “Nail In The Coffin.” This track is from the band’s new album, “The Standard,” which will be released on July 31.

    Vocalist Daryn LaMontagne commented:

    “‘Nail In The Coffin‘ is ultimately a conversation with your current and past self. We are not defined by what we are born into nor do we have to be a victim of the people, situations, or places at play. While your past self may have dealt with a lot of frustrations within, hard times, situations that are ‘not by choice,’ loss, and/or generational curses, your future self will be thankful for those times, people and places. Because that is what will make you stand taller, stronger, more wise and stoic in the end.

    When you seek a better way of life, it’s not about getting to the destination as quickly as possible. Instead, it’s about the daily decisions you make and the person you become because of those decisions. The character you build and the person you become along the way is key. Essentially, ‘Nail In The Coffin‘ is a final goodbye to your old ways, the individuals you fell victim to for periods of time, past habits, and excuses that ultimately kept you from getting to your overall destination.

    Driving that final nail in the coffin and burying a weaker version of yourself will ensure that you never become a product of what you were thrown into, never become the same as the average man, and that you will reach your full potential. This is an experience of ENLIGHTENMENT.”

  • Extinction A.D. Premiere “Blood Hoax” Video

    Extinction A.D. have premiered a new video for their new song “Blood Hoax.” You can check that out below. Vocalist/guitarist Rick Jimenez commented:

    “Why do something slow when you can do it fast? That was the mentality behind the music for ‘Blood Hoax.’ It’s a million miles an hour and off the charts intensity. Lyrically the song had to match the music in vitriol. Everyone has encountered the type of person that can only pump themselves up by tearing other people down. That’s the weakest mentality on earth and the decimation of that front is utterly gratifying. ‘Empty barrels make the most noise’ is a lasting mantra, and those types are destined to drown in blood.”
