The third part of the Under The Covers sessions from London Metalcore merchants Enquire Within has found its way to our ear drums. Having already given us choice cuts by Avenged Sevenfold and Power Trip, they’ve now gone to “Toxicity” by System Of A Down and the festival going crowd sing-a-long favourite “Aerials“. Having already
Of all the things that the year of the Great Plague has brought us, the last thing we expected was this. We’ve been totally blindsided by our Technical Metalcore heroes August Burns Red who have seemingly out of nowhere unleashed a cover of “Chop Suey!” By System Of A Down. It may have been done
Infighting may have prevented System Of A Down from creating any new material for fifteen years but Armenia is in their hearts and so with two new tracks appearing here for charity out of the blue on 6th November happened.

If you missed it,
While they continue to work on the follow up to “Welcome To Bonkers” with Jason Suecof, Californian Death Metallers Nekrogoblikon have gone back to their cover of “Chop Suey!” by System Of A Down for a quirky video 84 days after it began streaming. If you haven’t seen their 8 year celebration documentary about their
When we reviewed “From Filth To Filth” from Filthy Crook, one thing came to mind. Headbanging. Their EP is so groove laden that it will have even the hardest of Metal Heads cracking a smile as they listen to it. So we asked them about the influences behind it and this is what they said… “After
