Just in time for your Saturday smoke, Sweden's Scar Symmetry have released a new track called "Morphogenesis" from their forthcoming album Holographic Universe, due June 20th on Nuclear Blast. Enjoy this delicious slice of Gothenburg as you go about your ...

Whoa. So I guess last week's logo was pretty hard, because very, very few of you got it correct. The band it belongs to is called Abort Mastication, by the way, and five of the lucky MetalSucks winners who did get it right - Andrew Robbins, Sydney Kekoler...

Growth: Inside and Out Being an artist is a rough deal. Don't get me wrong, it's the best thing in the world to be a creator of things, but the hardest part about being an artist is the lack of having a manual or playbook. It's not like sports where you h...

  Vince and Axl are creative heavy metal journalists. They report on a diverse cross section of the Heavy Metal genre. They are both smart and whitty (they'll be the first to tell you they're in the upper 1% iq ranking), and occassionally come across as total dicks. But, they run an open forum that welcomes opposing views. They do not claim their opinion is metal marshall law. Currently, Metalsucks.net is my source for metal news and updates. Their content is far superior to other outlets such as Revolver, Metal Sludge, and Blabber Mouth.

  MetalSucks is the absolute best metal blog, bar none. Their posts are insightful, funny and well-written, second to none in terms of metal writing on the Internet. MetalSucks is where I go to get my news every day.

  Vinnie and Axl are sarcastic, sardonic, sour, negative, mean-spirited, close-minded metal music reviewers and commentators. Their site, Metalsucks.net, is ironically named on purpose and its main goal is to bring metal (and some hard rock) news to those of us who care. In other words, it's pretty damn awesome. Those of us who often disagree with their opinions or the opinions of the regular blog commentors there are actually welcomed with open arms. The debates are almost always filled with intelligent arguments and not the usual, sophomoric and idiotic ramblings of braindead teenagers who wouldn't know how to form a sentence, let alone draft an opinion. 9 stars.

  everyone who has reviewed this site so far has ONLY reviewed this one. hmmm. suspicious. not to mention they all read the same . . . hmmm . . . interesting. This blog is ok. Nothing great. I don't like the name - that is for ska bands the trendy 'sucks' at the end - but for metal? Overall not bad. Too much repetative content from the same people in bands writing the same boring 'road stories' for my taste.

  This is one of my favorite sites for news, reviews, upcoming releases, and tons of great posts about metal music. The writers all have a unique style and it's not the same crap everyday. They keep the site fresh with multiple entries throughout the day. Although I'm not always on the same page with their choice of what is good or bad, I almost always have a good time reading what they have to say. Thank you, MetalSucks, for giving us a not so serious look at our music style of choice!

  Once metal sludge stopped doing anything we were in need of a great news site that didn't take itself too seriously (we're looking at you blabbermouth). This site has up to the minute news on the world of metal and hard music. it'll make you smart and laugh. Steal their jokes and use them on your friends and soon you'll be the popular funny guy.

  THE source for Metal (and all sub-genre) news. Great section of new release dates. Expect sarcastically superb commentary on the state of metal, new releases, and the metal community at large. Don't pass up the reader responses. Veteran commenters such as Sammy, Hibernum, and Wayne make it all worth while. - TTquick

  Great Site! Vinnie and Axel Know their shit! it is definitely one of the best sites out there keep up the great work! and even though they have an inexcusable affinity for Avenged Sevenfold, I still think it's the best metal website around.
