The “Scene” is dead. It died a long time ago. There used to be several bands from NYC to New Haven that would regularly play shows across Connecticut, draw crowds, and bring in bands from as far away as Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. This was the result of a large, spread-out-yet interconnected group of… Continue reading Fuck the Scene!

Birding is So Metal, Part I: Finding the Scene
On a beautiful sunny day near the end of October I walked into the woods behind Cove Island Park with my binoculars and camera, ready to take pictures of birds and other wildlife. This is my thing.

Playing metal since 1993, the vocalist and multi-instrumentalist has been part of too many bands to count: From Below, Baphomet’s Horns, Age Old Nemesis, Infernal Solstice, and Arcane Malevolence, just to name a few. Angel’s — or, Weapon… Continue reading Warstrike 666’s Weapon A on Black Metal, Family, and “The Scene”

That’s right my metal brothers, it’s me Death Metal Dave again. After taking some time off to concentrate on chronologically arranging my Kataklysm concert ticket stubs and framing my Slayer vinyl, I’ve decided to come back by popular demand. It seems that a lot of tough questions plague my fellow metal brethren; questions that only… Continue reading Ask Death Metal Dave: A Metal Scene Q & A That’s Not for the Faint of Gut!
