Canadian Metal is represented with potent muscle from HAMMERDRONE and their Blackened EP: Demon Rising. Crunchy, melodic and searing guitars (Rick Cardellini, Curtis Beardy) to melt your eardrums into Metal ecstasy; all the while the vocals of Graham Harris will blanket your surroundings into a melancholy zone of Blackened welcoming acceptance.

Powerful drumming from Vinnie Cardellini provides the quaking and skull splitting ambience, with Steve Greenough administering hellish beats that shall kick the living shit out of your senses. Fabulous songs are all four; with a perfect combination of melodic and extreme to satiate a wide audience of Metal fans.

HAMMERDRONE are as legit as your favorite ale at your favorite watering hole; and this Metal band helps give the underground of Metal its grand reputation it so deserves.  Get your Metal senses scalded by HAMMERDRONE and remember the day I told you to do so. HAMMERDRONE deserves a record deal, from a Metal label we all know and respect. I absolutely cannot wait for HAMMERDRONE’s debut album! Metal be thy name.

Howl - Tour Promo Flyer - Summer - 2013

Rhode Island riff manglers HOWL will bring their sonic excess to the streets this Summer on a near month-long headlining tour. Set to commence on July 20th in their hometown of Providence, the New Noise Magazine sponsored trek will storm its way across the country, coming to a close on August 17th in Portland, Oregon. Support will be provided by label mates Lord Dying.

Said the band of the upcoming journey: “Dicks in hand, we will bring the riff to the holy land.”

HOWL will be touring in support of their Bloodlines full-length, recently discharged via Relapse Records. Delivering 40 inexorable minutes of lead-footed metallic dirge, Bloodlines entered the Billboard Heatseekers Chart at #50,  the Billboard Hard Music Chart at #57 and Billboard’s Indie Music Chart #173 upon its first week of release!

Bloodlines is currently streaming in its entirety at the band’s official BandCamp page: http://howl.bandcamp.com – Order your copy HERE. And if you missed it, don’t forget to peep the band’s Conner Owens-directed video for  “Demonic” now playing at THIS LOCATION.

As reported on the Official VENOM Website:

Venom have now confirmed they will headline the Belgian Festival Masters@Rock on Saturday 31st August 2013. Venom’s first ever live concert outside of England was in Belgium [Poperinge] way back in 1982. They returned again in 1984 as part of their ‘7 Dates of Hell’ tour, and it’s now been a staggering 29 years since that show, so this long awaited return will be a very special event indeed.
