Exumer are unveiling the third single from Fire & Damnation on AOL’s Noisecreep.com. The track can be heard now HERE. The Weakest Limb is the latest in a batch of singles to be heard from the album including: Vermin of the Sky on MetalHammer.de and Fire & Damnation on MetalBlade.com. Fire & Damnation will be released worldwide by Metal Blade Records – April 10th in North America and April 6th/10th in Europe/UK.

Exumer have been confirmed to play a series of live shows in South America in May and June, 2012! The trek will take the band through Argentina, Chile and Brazil. Danish thrash masters ARTILLERY are joining them on the whole tour. This is EXUMER’s first appearance in South American in 24 years, where the band last played in Brazil in 1988.

Vocalist Mem V. Stein comments: “We have been waiting for this moment for a long, long time! It’s a huge milestone in our career to return to Brazil after 24 years, where there are numerous online communities that wholeheartedly embrace EXUMER and where our fans have been loyally following us since our first appearances in the 1980s. There could hardly be a more cult tour package, between EXUMER and ARTILLERY, to hit South America and the timing could not be better for us to return there shortly after the release of our new album.”

SIX FEET UNDER – 3 Song Sampler Review Of Forthcoming Album ‘UNDEAD’

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Extreme Metal, Heavy Metal, heavy metal news, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , on March 28, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

SIX FEET UNDER – I’ve recently smothered my eardrums in a three song sampler of the forthcoming Six Feet Under album (Metal Blade Records) that’s titled: Undead. The three songs are: Formaldehyde, Days and Frozen At The Moment Of Death. I’ll tell all my fellow Death Metal brethren now… get ready… cause if these three songs are any deadly indication, then, this soon to be released Undead album is gonna kick your Death Metal lovin’ asses to hell and back.

Chris Barnes has never sounded more brutal on vocals and his Six Feet Under band have unleashed 100% lethal Death Metal with Formaldehyde. Mean as hell. The riffs, the bludgeoning bass and drums, the whole damn F’n 100 yards of Death Metal fury, is all set afire by Six Feet Under, on all three songs. My Metal impression is: Six Feet Under are back in 2012 to reaffirm they are a Death Metal force to be duly reckoned with.

Still maintaining an authoritative Death Metal groove on each song, Six Feet Under instills that “underground” feel and vibe as well. So incredibly heavy are these three songs that it is nearly hallucinating. I’ll have to tell you, after listening to these new Six Feet Under songs, I want this entire album now! I don’t give a damn about how many blisters my eardrums get, from the singing Death Metal assault that this band administers. Hell no.

In my Metal opinion, Undead is gonna be a mammoth Death Metal milestone for Six Feet Under. Hell yeah it’s gonna be. Metal. Be. Thy. Name.

As reported on the Official Misfits Records Newsletter (March 28, 2012):

THE definitive book on The Ramones arrives at last with “COMMANDO: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF JOHNNY RAMONE“. This is the real deal, straight from the source – a razor sharp stiletto from the grave delivering the story that has never been told before.

On Friday, March 30th join Johnny’s wife and companion of over two decades, LINDA RAMONE, with sole surviving founding member, producer and original drummer TOMMY RAMONE, and “Commando” Editor/JRA Chief of Staff JOHN CAFIERO (Osaka Popstar) for a special instore book signing event, Q&A and more, starting 6pm at Barnes & Noble in Tribeca @ 97 Warren Street, New York, NY 10007, 212-587-5389.

“Commando” arrives in stores and online nationwide on April 2nd from Abrams Image. Pick your copy up at Barnes & Noble in NYC on Friday March 30th and get it signed!

“Johnny Ramone was a living legend. A true enigma. One in a Million. I reveled in his iron-clad, piss and vinegar sort of temperament towards everything and life in general…Long Live Johnny Ramone!!!!” – Kirk Hammett (Metallica)

“Johnny Ramone’s autobiography is a no holds bared, straight forward book written in a no-nonsense style that is Johnny personified. His story is written in his own actual words, so the reader gets an insight into what made him the unique, charismatic and exciting individual that he was. It also gives a great view of the Ramones from Johnny’s perspective.” – Tommy Ramone
