Do I Suck For…. Abandoning My Adult Friend At A Festival Because They Got Lost?

Smokey Goretooth at it again with a new “Do I Suck?,” MetalSucks’ version of “Am I The Asshole?” where we take real life horror stories and bring them to our readers to decide if the OP sucks for some bullshit they may or may not have done. This week’s submission comes from a user who feels like they didn’t need to lose their spot by the stage for their friend’s sake. Let’s continue… So, we just had our Warped Tour stop a few days ago, and I planned on going with one of my friends who had never attended the festival in the past at all. I used to go regularly in my younger years, so I was really excited to go and kind of wasn’t going to let anyone get in the way of it. I planned on getting there right when the gates opened, and my friend was going to meet me at some point in the afternoon. There was a set I really wanted to see, and when my friend said they were on their way, ...

Triosphere – Oceans Above, Stars Below

It is the road less travelled for a band to take this long to create an album, yet Triosphere persisted onwards, and at long last there is new music from them. Read more… La entrada Triosphere – Oceans Above, Stars Below se publicó primero en METALEROS 💀 .

DISGRUNTLED DAD REVIEWS With DAVE MUSTCOMPLAIN: DEATHGRAVE – HELL IS EVIL

Hi everybody, Dave Mustcomplain here. Fair warning before I do this review: I’ve had a real bummer of a week. First off, my shitting wife Doreen capped me off at three Busch Lights a week on account of the fact that my heart threw a bitch fit a month back. Says she’s worried I’m going to finally give up the ghost and leave her all alone. I told her I’d go ahead and eat a fucking shotgun if she continues to boss me around like that, because at least then I’d get some peace and quiet. Sent her crying as she ran into the bedroom, which is fine by me since it kept her from squawking in my ear. To cap it all off, I have to write another review for you virgin mouthbreathers. Meh, at least it’s a distraction from my dumpster fire of a marriage, so I’ll try to concentrate real hard on this one. Here’s the new album by Deathgrave . Track 1: “Hell is Evil” Who’d have thought upchucking y...

Junius – Sotera

This hit the spot just right. More of a gloomy doom-goth than post metal. Great stuff regardless. La entrada Junius – Sotera se publicó primero en METALEROS 💀 .

MONDAYSUCKS With JOHN GOBLIKON: I Got 99 Episodes but a Troll Ain’t One!

Tomorrow marks a very special day in my podcasting career: episode 99 of the RIGHT NOW! The podcast will be released, and for those who struggle with math, that means we are but one episode away from reaching the milestone of 100. It may come as a surprise, but I wasn’t always the funny, confident, sex-Gob you see each week hosting the number one comedy podcast in the world, if you don’t fact-check that. Believe it or not, I used to be just your ordinary, everyday life-insurance salesman turned worst-selling author turned metal mascot turned front Gob of the premier goblin-metal band Nekrogoblikon , and my GOB, how time has flown. I remember episode 1 like it was just 687 days ago… because it was. Now that I’m also on my way to becoming the #1 journalist in the overcrowded market of satirical-metal articles, I wanted to peel back the curtain and take a look back… review… reminisce… reflect...

Apostle – A Splinter In The Infinite Noumenon

Turnover of personnel is an unfortunate fact of life for many bands; often these changes occur with minimal impact upon the band’s musical trajectory, but such an event can also often be a catalyst for a reinvention.

DROPOCALYPSE FRIDAY: Rereleases Come One, Come All!

You know the saying about the law of attraction? Yeah, well, looks like one band decided, ‘Hey, maybe we should rerelease this LP,’ and that one band ended up being pretty much all of them. And – get this –  only one of them is standard black . I mean, we’re talking peak consumption-levels here. Rereleases can get a bad rap – and should – but that’s not necessarily the point. Okay, maybe it is the point. But, somehow, taking the magic of a record that was released (x) years ago, slapping it on some colored vinyl, and hoping it’ll have the same sell-out effect is a little insane. Then again, every one in the music industry seems to be a little off their rocker, and that includes people behind the scenes (Rigor Morrissey as well). However, it seems like madness runs throughout the music industry, because like crazies, we buy new records each week and expect different results. These res...

Halo Of Teeth – Meditations On Dying

Meditations On Dying is “a journey through the human experience of death and dying, from depression to acceptance”, and it is as melancholic, harrowing yet gloomily beautiful as that description implies. Read more… La entrada Halo Of Teeth – Meditations On Dying se publicó primero en METALEROS 💀 .

Do I Suck For… Pushing An Old Man Because He Tried To Take My Music Away?

It’s Smokey Goretooth back with a new “Do I Suck?,” MetalSucks’ version of “Am I The Asshole?” where we take real life horror stories and bring them to our readers to decide if the OP sucks for some bullshit they may or may not have done. This week’s submission comes from an anonymous user who got into it with a senior citizen. Read on… I didn’t want for any of this to happen, but I really did feel like I had to defend myself. I take the train into the city to go to work, and I was sitting in the seat closest to the window with my headphones on. Some old dude came up and sat next to me since that’s where the only open seat was (usually people think I look scary because of my clothes and stuff so I assume that’s why most people don’t like sitting next to me, which is okay), and I figured everything would be fine. It wasn’t. We barely made it five minutes before this dude’s dec...

All Shall Perish – The Price Of Existence

It has been brought to my attention that is putting out a remastered 20th anniversary edition of ... Which presents me with the perfect opportunity to bring to your attention the nearly overlooked fact that released exactly 20 years ago. Hitting harder than some SpaceX debris falling out of orbit, remains an absolutely monstrous record. Juicy, pissed-off, ridiculously tight and hopelessly addictive, it’s a slab of deathcore that still wears its melodic death metal influences proudly on its sleeve... (...I mean, assuming, of course, that slabs of deathcore can wear sleeves...) Whatever. The key takeaway: twenty years on, this thing still fucking rules.

DISGRUNTLED DAD REVIEWS With DAVE MUSTCOMPLAIN: MARILYN MANSON – ONE ASSASSINATION UNDER GOD – CHAPTER 2

No! No no no! Marilyn Manson ? Are you fucking kidding me, MetalSucks ? If there’s one thing us good, God-fearing Christians fear, it’s that vile, filth-ridden corrupter of American society. I didn’t storm our beautiful nation’s Capitol on that fateful day in 2021 to have him return to transform our children into loathsome, mouth-breathing goths like he did back in the nineties. My beautiful daughter Jessica told me (back before she shuttered me from her life for having the goddamn good sense to outspokenly disregard the COVID-19 plan demic) that he had been canceled for some… shall we say untoward behavior, to say the least, a few years back so I refuse to give Marilyn Manson the time of day, lest I give Satan a free pass to roast me in his eternal flames like a fucking campfire hotdog. It’s a good thing those long-haired dweebs at MetalSucks are rewarding me so handsomely f...

MONDAYSUCKS With JOHN GOBLIKON: I Invaded Warped Tour and, Hand To Gob, I’m NOT SORRY! 

1995 was an incredible year: Michael Jordan returned to basketball, O.J. got away with murder, Tom Hanks tried to go to the moon with Kevin Bacon and that guy from Twister , but they got stuck (never saw the end, nor the sequel Apollo 14 , so I assume they are still orbiting?), and every one of us got kissed by a Rose on a Grave! OH MY GOB what a year! Yet, I think the most defining moment was when a new music festival emerged, one that would change the course of your life… and mine. Originally titled “The Bomb,” cripes, who pitched that turd of an idea? I can only assume somebody looked at the guy who pitched it and was like, “The bomb? In this economy? That’s kinda WARPED, don’t ya think?” That’s when a gentleman named Van stepped forward, or wait, maybe there were two of him since the name is plural? Yeah. They were TWINS, that’s it! So, VANS spoke up, in unison of course, ...

DROPOCALYPSE FRIDAY: Something Old, Something New

Despite the title of this article, this is not centered around weddings or matrimony. Rather, it’s focused on a rerelease, a preorder, a record released within the last few months that is seeing more albums printed, and more. Which, honestly, is a far better investment than a wedding. Because one, vinyl can never cheat on you. Two, you can always sell the vinyl if push comes to shove (if you do that with a partner, that’s considered human trafficking). And three, you can have more than one, without judgment, scrutiny, or again, breaking the law. So, step right up for Dropocalypse Friday, where I pair you with one of our excellent new vinyl releases of the week, to live happily ever after with. And like I said, you can pick more than one – without judgment. Godflesh –  Decay UK industrial metal Godflesh are calling it quits after their forthcoming record, Decay , is out. ...

Anna Fiori – Metztli

Hailing from Mexico, has delivered one of the best musical creations this year in the symphonic metal realm. Although criminally underrated, this concept album brings you powerful orchestral arrangements, recurring motifs, epic choirs, pre-Hispanic instrumentation which adds a very different flavour, power metal moments sprinkled in there and, at the forefront, Anna Fiori's majestic, glorious vocal range (with occasional growls too) guide the whole piece. The music is mysterious, melodic, haunting, heavy, mystical and cinematic to perfectly set the scene. It's hard to find albums that are as consistently good as this one, especially without label backing, but will keep you interested from start to finish. gives you a glimpse into the Aztec world because Metztli is the goddess of the moon in Aztec mythology, and the lyrics on the album are in Spanish and Nahuatl (the language of the Aztecs). Immerse yourself in the tour de force that is ! La entrada Anna Fiori – Metztli se ...

Do I Suck For…Calling Out Of Work So I Could Get Wasted On OZZY Day?

Smokey Goretooth reporting for duty with a new “Do I Suck?,” MetalSucks’ version of “Am I The Asshole?” where we take real life horror stories and bring them to our readers to decide if the OP sucks for some bullshit they may or may not have done. This week’s submission comes from a user called “working_class_ass,” who is questioning whether the reason was good enough. You’ll see what I mean… I work at a really popular bar/restaurant in a small college town, so it’s usually busy at night even during the week. Because of this, it makes it hard to call out sometimes even when you have good reason, and on this particular night, I feel like I had a great one. So everyone at work knows I’m a huge fan of Ozzy Osbourne and I was absolutely gutted when he died. None of my coworkers listen to the same music as I do and don’t really pay attention to most things happening in the metal ...

DISGRUNTLED DAD REVIEWS With DAVE MUSTCOMPLAIN: ELECTRIC CALLBOY – TANZNEID

Greetings all, Dave Mustcomplain , back and better than ever. If you weren’t aware, I had a little health scare a couple weeks ago when my heart decided to suddenly take a shit. Here I am, though, basically 100% now. I did piss myself when I walked past the microwave the other day, so the doc must’ve put in a pacemaker while I was out. Would’ve been nice of her to tell me, but what’re you gonna do. I’m just glad my decades-long ignorance of the Food Pyramid and completely sedentary lifestyle hasn’t sent me into the loving bosom of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ yet. Nope, I’m here for the foreseeable future, and to make sure you worthless turds appreciate me, here’s a review of the new album by Electric Callboy . I haven’t even looked at the cover of it yet, and I can already state with confidence that it sucks shit. Track 1: “TANZNEID” Good fucking Lord. Track 2: “RATATATA” ...
