We can’t wait to see them hit the UK very soon – for now check out what teen singer Hannes Braun has to say about all things metal. Read the rest of this entry »

White Trash – Apple Pie b/w The Crawl, Lil’ Nancy & Good God

1991 Four Track Promo Album Sampler

White Trash were the best band that never was. End of.

Fusing rock and metal with a whole lot of horns their infectious sound won a degree of critical acclaim before internal differences and the changing musical landscape led to their premature demise.

But the great news is that White Trash are back and those yearning for a return to the good old days of their self-titled debut should check out 2009′s 3-D Monkeys In Space. Even better, the band is out on the road again.   Read the rest of this entry »

On April 5, the US semi-supergroup (boasting members of Isis and Made Out Of babies among others) release the superbly titled The Fear Is Excruciating, But Therein Lies The Answer.

And we reckon it’s one of those albums you just have to own on a slab of 12-inch plastic – the band agrees and a vinyl edition will be issued alongside the traditional CD. Read the rest of this entry »
