A Sound of Thunder Unleash the Queen of Hell

A Sound of Thunder are back with an EP entitled Queen of Hell. It's a metal appetizer to hold fans over until their next studio album Time's Arrow comes out in the spring. If you liked their last album Out of the Darkness, shame on you if you didn't, then you are in for a huge treat on this EP. Here's my review for it for Rock Revolt Magazine:

Anthrax: Grammy Awards, Cover Songs and Maximum Metal

Anthrax released Worship Music in 2011 and they were suddenly thrust into the mainstream spotlight. After 30 plus years of thrashing and headbanging, the guys were getting major props thrown their way from publications and fans and critics unlike anything they had ever seen before. It was a reassurgence in their career, although they were far from being on life support. Drummer Charlie Benante talked to me about their upcoming tour, their surprise Grammy nomination and lots of other interesting metal tidbits. You can read all about it here:

Otherwise: Healing Through Music

I am a firm believer that music is therapeutic. The guys in Otherwise are prime examples of that. Their music has touched so many lives in such a short time and has healed many, all while the band members are healing from their own tragic loses. Lead singer Adrian Patrick sat down and talked to me about healing through music plus the amazing ride that 2012 was for the band. You can read all about it here:
