When’s it actually going to be like nice weather Spring-time? I’m getting sick of all this rain…

Pitchforkmedia is known for being a sort of indie rock tastemaker. It’s usually not known for it’s heavy metal coverage. That said, the site’s Show No Mercy column is consistantly good. Today they posted an interview with the Philly sludge-metal band Javelina (say it ha-va-LEE-na). Pitchfork give props Javelina’s self titled debut album on Translation Loss Records. Javelina big […]

Yeah, I know that there is a writers strike going on and all that but the kids need their mathed out tech metal-hardcore fix.
Crazily, Conan O’Brien is happy to oblige the metalcore masses - New Jersey’s Dillinger Escape Plan are slated to be the musical guest on tonights Late Night with Conan O’Brien.  Is this the first […]

I’ve stated on here in that past that when I was growing up all South Jersey in the ’80’s I was a dorky thrash metal dirtbag. Somehow, thrash (and skateboarding) led me to punk rock and hardcore and, once I discovered that stuff, I quickly dismissed all things metal as stupid and all things punk […]

I’m going to keep it simple this weekend.  There’s still a lot going on but the things I have listed come very highly rated from me to you…

Happy Halloween, my dear fun vampires. Here are some “horror” themed videos to check out.

Princeton University’s WPRB is one of (if not THEE) best college radio stations in the entire country. Recently, the student senior board and the station’s Board of Trustees decided that a community-based solution centering on a membership drive was needed to strengthen the station’s future. YIKES!

Just because I’ve gotten older, I have not stopped going to shows as have so many of my peers. I do, however, go to a lot less of them. Long gone are the days of 24/7 tinnitus from having my ears assaulted nearly every night. If this is telling of the current music scene’s offerings […]

This weekend pretty much has something for everyone. You’ve got your indie-rock nerd shows, your dance-til-you-puke DJ events, your Mexican wrestling, your eternal salvation and enlightenment…you get the idea.

I won’t front. Mike Quinn is one of my favorite people in all of Philadelphia.
I was pretty excited when I saw this article about him and his excellent No Quarter record label in the City Paper. The article is pretty dead on - the guy works A LOT of hours carting around Penn students in order to be […]

The internet has been boiling over with poop excitement since the free diy record label poibella released its debut album, compoi0. The album is free to download and contains 29 banging and semi-banging tracks from a variety of “artists.” Poibella plans to release several solo albums this year (also free) and then compoi1 next summer. […]

If Friday night doesn’t kill you, Saturday surely will…

Oh, the weekend is here. Whatever shall you do? How about some of these fun thangs…

A few years ago, jae kwon invited me to join a mixcdclub. What’s that you ask? Find 11 losers friends. Assign a month to each friend and take one for yourself. If you have months left over or you ran out of months too soon, then you fucked up. Otherwise, each person sends a mixcd […]

Jah sez: The sacred herb gives life not death so legalize it. I don’t know why they made this guy resign. From what I’ve seen most cops could use some w33d. You definitely won’t die but time might go really really really really really really slow.

Meet Fenriz of black metal band, Darkthrone and a total sweetheart. Fenriz takes us into his home and back to his roots to show us his most treasured album.

It’s wednesday..trouble getting over the hump? Nothing my favorite apocalyptic bulldozer,  Neurosis, can’t handle.

Those who need to know… know. Cosmo Baker on the cut. Ozzy on the vocals. Tony Iommi wields the axe. Bill Ward hits the skins. Geezer Butler brings the low end thunder.
Philly SITP exclusive info when the gods let it be known.

AWESOME! We told you about this a long time ago because we were so stoked for it.  It’s going to be awesome.
