Imminence - The Black Tour is a spectacle

I recently saw Imminence on their latest tour and I can't get over how good they were. The vocals, the sound, the setlist, was just perfect. Probably my favourite band around at the moment - if you get the chance to see them, SEE THEM!

Greyhaven - Confined Collapse

I got a chance to see them play this live a few days ago when they played with Devil Wears Prada and this song goes so hard live! These guys are definitely one of the tightest bands around

Can someone help me find this shirt?

ok so a friend showed me this rap song and in it I spotted a metal shirt. Now this might just be a random shirt with metal font on it but im really curious if this is a real band.

Surroundings - Paper Cranes (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

Surroundings really hit the nail on the head with this one considering how myself and many others feel about the world right now. Overall such an amazing song too even if im more into pop punk music

Dream on, Dreamer - Planted Somewhere Hidden (Throwback Thursday)

I listened to this EP on repeat back in high school in 2010. Never seen anyone else mention this band here. The albums "Loveless" and "Songs of Solitude" after this EP are both awesome as well.

Bands that don't scream live anymore

Recently saw I See Stars and they didn't sing anything off there first 2 album or scream. It got me thinking are there any other bands from around 2005 upwards that don't play there older song or scream when performing live anymore.

What song would you like a band to re-record/re-imagine?

It's far from a widespread phenomenon, but there have been a few instances recently of bands re-recording old material, sometimes with a new spin on the track. For me Bleeding Through and Eighteen Visions have been the most notable examples.

Which got me thinking, do you have any tracks you're itching for a favourite to go back and revisit? Is there a song with a part so irksome you'd love them to produce a new version with it excised?

I was thinking that while Bleeding Through are apparently in the mood, I could really do with them giving Savior, Saint, Salvation another look and replace the M. Shadows feature either with Brandan's cleans or bring in another feature (with a voice far less grating than Shadows...).

is rockville worth it?

i’m considering buying the weekend pass because there’s about 11 bands total (6 on saturday, 5 on sunday) that i would like to see but this is my first concert/festival ever so im not sure how worth it prices are, would y’all say it’s worth it?

ik you could technically decide whether it’s worth it by how much you wanna see them but im not sure if it would be worth it or not
