It's official! Elysium will be hosting the official Becoming the Archetype CD release party in Melbourne, Florida on Tuesday, November 25th at 7PM!

Both Jason and Seth will be in town that night with the new CD and we will have a time to listen to the CD and have a Q & A session with the guys, answering all questions metal!

Following the best selling record of their 15-year career, Scars Remain, celebrated rock act Disciple offers Southern Hospitality releasing Oct. 21. Produced by Travis Wyrick (P.O.D., Pillar), Southern Hospitality offers 12 new tracks from what lead singer Kevin Young describes as their most incredible record making experience to date. In support of Southern Hospitality, the band will be making promo stops and radio visits in Portland, Sacramento, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Nashville.

Divine Metal Distro (part of the crazy gang at Open Grave) is doing a free shipping promo until the end of this month on any orders $15 and above. They have one of the largest independent listings I've seen with some solid prices and some rare items as well. So grab some CDs you've been trying to find, I know I could easily spend $100 right now!

“Better than Demon Hunter!” “Better than Marilyn Manson!” “I can’t stop listening to this!” echo the responses from many of the people I’ve shown Virginia Creepers latest offer: The Unveiling. Fans have been waiting 2 years since Virginia Creepers original exploding release “Whos Your God”. The process has gone from EP to full release to now a dual EP release (with the second part releasing sometime at the end of this year) the question on a lot of peoples minds are: how HARD does it ROCK!?

The Unveiling ROCKS HARD! Amongst the mediocre releases of cookie cutter screamo and pop metal bands Virginia Creeper descends onto the scene with the ripping vocals, piecing lyrics and professional instrumentals that makes you forget that other bands simply exist.

This 5 song release is an absolute must by for any fan of hard rock, metal or music in general. Amongst the people I’ve shown the CD the majority of them were none hardcore music listeners who almost immediately caught what’s been called “The VC bug”.

You can listen to half of the EP from Virginia Creepers MySpace page, after checking that hop over to the CDBABY page and pick it up. For $7 you’ll be glad you picked up what I’m calling the Metal Release of the Year.
