Sorry it has been so long.  A lot has happened in my life in the last year and I’m just getting back to a place where I can focus on my love of all things metal.  There have been many awesome things (and not so awesome things) happening the scene in this year.  Here are some of the highlights…

LIVING SACRIFICE, DEMON HUNTER, THE SHOWDOWN, FOR TODAY, AS THEY SLEEP, UNDEROATH, ASCEND THE HILL, YOUR MEMORIAL, THE CHARIOT, HASTE THE DAY, AUGUST BURNS RED,  A PLEA FOR PURGING, IMPENDING DOOM, CORPUS CHRISTI, NORMA JEAN, MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE, I AM ALPHA & OMEGA, EMBRACING GOODBYE, TO SPEAK OF WOLVES, SENT BY RAVENS, AS I LAY DYING, WAR OF AGES and WRENCH IN THE WORKS…all released albums this year.  Some good, some bad, some so so.

LIVING SACRIFICE…On Tour

Posted in Tours with tags , , on 12/29/2009 by inmystead


Metal legends LIVING SACRIFICE have announced a U.S. co-headlining tour, dubbed ‘The Abominable Snowtour’, that will crisscross the nation from February 5-28. The band will share top billing throughout the tour with metal cohorts WAR OF AGES, with support from SHAI HULUD, LIONHEART and THE GREAT COMMISSION.


“We are really excited to get out and play some of the new stuff live,” says LIVING SACRIFICE frontman Bruce Fitzhugh. “We’re also stoked on the other bands on the tour. I’ve been a fan of SHAI HULUD for years, and we have become close with the WAR OF AGES guys over the last few years, playing together at festivals. We’re just really glad to be able to do this.”

 The tour comes on the heels of the release of The Infinite Order, in stores January 26 on SolidState Records. The album - LIVING SACRIFICE’s seventh full-length overall, and first since 2002’s acclaimed Conceived In Fire – is shaping up to be one of 2010’s most hotly anticipated metal releases. The Infinite Order finds the band returning to its thrash roots for an unapologetic reminder of how unrelenting, honest metal is done at a time when some folks could use a reminder.   There aren’t too many metal lifers out there who AREN’T named SLAYER or METALLICA that are still making ferociously relevant music 20 years into their career. LIVING SACRIFICE are among the few and the proud, and despite the fact that they have inspired a huge portion of today’s young metal bands, they’re still playing like they’ve got something to prove.”  LIVING SACRIFICE have opened the gates for album pre-orders, with several options available, including added value such as DVDs and t-shirts.
