So there's a tour right now featuring Megadeth and Slayer. Megadeth is playing Rust in Peace in full and Slayer is playing Seasons in the Abyss.

Damn.

Also: I saw BORIS and Russian Circles at the Metro on Friday night and it was fucking awesome.

Russian Circles is a like a more metal version of Explosions in the Sky (think a more noodly Pelican) and they're from Chicago. Bonus: they shred.

Boris is from Japan and they're weird as hell and loud as fuck. Their drummer wore a rhinestone backless shirt and white gloves. He also has a large gong behind him that he likes to crash to signal the beginning of certain songs. Then he beats the everloving shit out of his drum kit. The lead singer plays a double axe. The lead guitarist is a hot Japanese chick that wails and rips through all of their songs.

In other words, next time Boris comes all the way from Japan to play in Chicago you better get your ass out and go see them for less than 20 dollars.

They play here all the time, I'd guess, being local. Still have to go and see Pelican, myself. I believe they play together from time to time.

This is very intriguing. Is there a certain track I should listen to?

Can't really go wrong with Death Rides a Horse.

Yea, this is pretty good. I always like Explosions in the Sky, but these guys address my need for something a little more "stronger" when it comes to pure instrumental music.

I'm liking Nevermore's newest album.  I'm ranking it below some of their other greats, but it's still very worthy.  Jeff Loomis can still find new ways to shred ears via riff.

I waited all the way till Friday to post this.

Chuck-Like Confirmation Bias has a new record out. It's not up to there glory days on Forkjoke but it's worth a listen if you're feeling nostalgic.
