I would hope by now that everyone would have some idea of who Corey Taylor is. Whether it’s as the frontman of Slipknot/Stone Sour or as a best selling author. He’s been around long enough, that you should at least have heard the name alone. CMFT is the first collection of all solo material from…
Danish post-hardcore mob Siamese have been putting their time in lockdown to good use. They’ve just dropped a brand new single, titled “Home“, which features none other than Drew York from Stray From The Path on guest vocals.

On In Hearts Wake’s fifth album, ‘Kaliyuga‘, they snatch hold of that flag and hoist it as high as their fellow Aussies have in the past. What’s even more impressive…
I will admit right upfront that I have never cared for Machine Gun Kelly. I found him to be overly obnoxious, and frankly a bit of a poser with very little to back it up. With that said I don’t think I could have ever seen this mid career genre switch coming at all. When…
