Today’s the day we officially spread our wings and launch! Wise Blood Records will be the home of your next favorite heavy metal and punk bands. We’ll announce our first signees soon, and will rave endlessly about their new record at that time. Give @WiseBloodRecs a follow!

My 13th Decibel cover story is this retrospective on 1995, and it's a beast. Over a dozen collaborators from At the Gates, Paradise Lost, Monster Magnet, Deadguy, Dark Tranquility, Dismember, Integrity, Blut Aus Nord, Fear Factory and more. Order now, comrades. #Metal #HeavyMetal

Now that Decibel Magazine is releasing Napalm Death reprints it's a great time to revisit the most recent of my several conversations with death/grind pioneers @officialND about their upcoming record: https://t.co/eXgMWje9Fh

@metal___queen Doing the same! Metalheads stronger in numbers.

What albums did y'all snag last Friday when Bandcamp waived fees to assist artists with a bigger cut? @LINGUA_IGNOTA_ and @TigerSexBand and Spectrum Mortis here.

Time to exhume my Twitter handle. Today I premiered a nasty new track from @conceivedbyhate over at Decibel Magazine. Thanks to @satanath666 for the collab. Go submerge yourself in the song's haunted fog now. https://t.co/XGJhYv50ad

"Welcome to the kingdom of my dad." - My girlfriend mishearing Slayer's "Angel of Death"

[Mister Growl @MisterGrowl]

@prettyinblackxx Yeah, sounds like my sort of jam. I think Jus is a big fan of "Psychomania," but here's hoping "Satan's Sadists" made it in the visuals too.

[Mister Growl @MisterGrowl]

@prettyinblackxx I still haven't seen 'em live, but my straight-edge friends said their show was the closest they'll get to a drug-fueled occult orgy. SOLD.
