California death metal act ABYSMAL DAWN have completed work on their fifth studio album and Season of Mist debut.

The forthcoming full-length was mixed by frontman and co-founder Charles Elliott, produced and engineered by Elliot and Mike Bear at Tastemaker Audio, while the drums were tracked by John Haddad at Trench Studios. Finally, the offering was mastered by Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios.

Abysmal Dawn comment on the new record: “We’re officially done with album number 5! It’s been quite some time since we released any new music, and we feel we have something special on our hands. It took a lot of time, effort, and seeing through some trying times to get to this moment. We’re very proud of the outcome and think fans will agree it was worth the wait...

THE USED‘s new song and music video “Blow Me” has premiered and is streaming via YouTube for you above. Fever 333 frontman Jason Aalon Butler guests on it.

“The members of the Used had to overcome poverty, homelessness, and substance abuse, not to mention the straitlaced attitudes of their hometown of Orem, Utah, to bring their screamo-tinged brand of post-hardcore to life. But they persevered and earned a contract with Reprise Records, releasing their self-titled debut album in June 2002. Having only played a handful of shows around Orem prior to their record’s release, the band — vocalist Bert McCracken, guitarist Quinn Allman, bassist Jeph Howard, and drummer Branden Steineckert — began relentless nationwide touring that quickly saw their fan base multiply...

MOTLEY CRUE vocalist, Vince Neil, took some time off from his busy training schedule to fill his belly today at the Hampden Pie Festival in Baltimore, Maryland where he took first place in a pie eating contest.

As the Crue prepares to make a comeback in 2020 by way of a recently announced tour with Def Leppard and Poison, it’s leaked out in the press that Vince Neil has been dieting and fighting off his usual urge to eat too much food.

Not one to miss out on a golden opportunity, however, Mr. Neil is an honorary guest at this year’s magical food event.

It’s being reported that the rotund singer devoured an entire large blueberry pie in only 90 seconds.

BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA is the brand new cooperation between the almighty Bolverk (guitarist from Ragnarok), Paul Speckmann (Master’s bassist and leader) and Henning Haugen from Befouled.

The EP, called “Beard Out of Hell,” has been licensed exclusively by Wormholedeath and it is the beginning of one of the most interesting metal project of the last years! Beside the title track, fans will also enjoy a very unique version of  David Bowie’s hit “Ziggy Stardust”!

The finest Black metal and death metal are now combined in 2 tracks of pure and explosive Death’n Roll!
