Legendary Japanese experimental rockers Boris are currently celebrating their 30th anniversary, and today they released their third Heavy Rocks LP and second full-length of the year, Heavy Rocks (2022).  Last week the band dropped their third single and video from the album (“My name is blank”) and later this...

Montreal-based experimental metal trio BIG|BRAVE are about to kick off a tour where they (as immediate support) are sandwiched between post-metal supergroup SUMAC (featuring Baptists’ Nick Yacyshyn, Russian Circles’ Brian Cook, and Aaron Turner of Mamiffer and Old Man Gloom) and Tashi Dorji, their first U.S. tour since the...
