Almost two years after the release of their debut album, Smile, Cane Hill is back to spread a little chaos and destruction with their album Too Far Gone (Rise Records). These New Orleans boys are no stranger to the scene, spending most of their time touring alongside heavy-hitters like Motionless in White, BlessTheFall, and Atilla. However, with the release of their newest record, Cane Hill continues to prove why they should be on everyone’s radar.
The Dillinger Escape Plan have announced their rescheduled European dates. The dates were originally postponed following the band's bus accident in Poland

Yesterday rounded off the last of the Bad Ass Weekend festivities this year and really brought the beginning of the punk/metal/grindcore calender in Houston for this year. This event in it's third year, was brought to us by Jaron Sayers and JC Newton and boy did it go off with a bang! With some of the headliners including the likes of Napalm Death, Who Killed Spikey Jacket?, and Goverment Issue this line-up was pretty much garenteed to sell out their respective venues.
Yet another batch of bands have been added to the UK's most notorious Rock and Metal festival. Amongst the new batch of bands added are Killswitch Engage, American Head Charge, Skindred, Emmure, Upon A Burning Body, The Pretty Reckless and Crazy Town (no, we are not joking). These bands will be joining the varied rooster that includes Linkin Park, Fall Out Boy, Bowling For Soup, The Offspring, Aerosmith, Avenged Sevenfold, Thy Art Is Murder, Suicide Silence, While She Sleeps, Status Quo, Trivium and Dying Fetus (seriously, we swear this is a real line-up).
