Anyone recommend a decent site to keep up with the latest metal/punk reviews and releases?

No Punk though. Some people would suggest Pitchfork but its very hipstery. I like Cvlt Nation, but it is more of a blog and mainly covers Hardcore/Sludge/Black Metal.

World Eater was the first Bolt Throw song I heard, probably via the Grindcrusher sample, so guess it just stuck. Intro is just immense and still blows me away today. Kind of lost interest in them after a while, as they are somewhat stuck in a songwriting niche, but they're certainly hardy, have to give them that!

captainmatt said: glad to hear it!! i have been literally spellbound since i found these guys.i still have the first album on loop a couple of years later.the new album "weightless" is unfathomable.no matter how many times you listen to it you just can't have it all bed in at once.i don't think it matters who left to be honest.as long as irt isn't tosin abasi.he was and is animals as leaders.the other guys just filled out as a live band and then stayed.99% of the input is tosin alone

Got to agree, saw them on their last 2 tours. Very odd having the drummer at the front and the singer at the back. lol

throttlebodies said: That Breakdown of Sanity sounded quite promising until the vocals kicked in. Wasn't terrible though, and similar could be said for The Contortionist. ...Here's some more Black/Sludge. Just listened to this album, enjoyed it although the vocals do get a bit annoying. Some great riffs though: Lord Mantis - At the Mouth

Never really listened to Pig Destroyer before now, but this caught my attention. Got to be pretty brave to cover any Dark Angel, let alone this one Burning of SodomOn a related note, there are a few live clips of said song floating about, but never seen This one before. Is it me, or does modern metal just lack that sort of ferociousness? Listened to that Contortionist stuff up thread and it's good, but just sounds contrived to me.
