Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. The metal world seems to be starting off 2016 in an odd place, and I’m sure I don’t need to tell you why. As such, there isn’t much in the way of new music […]

We’d already known that Slipknot and Faith No More were playing the Heavy Montreal Festival (aka, the best reason to go to Canada other than the exchange rate). But yesterday, the Fest released the full lineup, and it’s ridiculous. Korn will be performing their debut album in full. Meshuggah is playing, as are Gojira and […]

Periphery has a new album coming out, Juggernaut, in early 2015. Go back to March of this year when Misha Mansoor posted this statement on Facebook: “Yesterday we played the last show we will play until our next album is recorded. Very excited to get to work on this next one!” Since then the band has been toiling away at […]

For the last month or so, Periphery have been in the studio working on their third proper album, Juggernaut. In September, having completed the album, they’ll be stepping away from the confines of the recording studio to hit the road on the “Escape From the Studio” tour. The tour, which will be sponsored by D’Addario and […]
