IRON REAGAN - Australian waters are famous for housing many of the world’s deadliest sharks and it’s said that if a shark stops moving, it’s dead. Well those waters are about to get just a little more crowded. It may not be a shark invading, but a creature just as restless, with just as much bite.
It was announced yesterday that Richmond, VA punk / thrash quintet IRON REAGAN will hit the land down under after their month long North American tour. The band spent most of its time on the road last year, stopping just long enough to record their 24-song ‘Tyranny of Will’ album, which was released by Relapse Records this past September. You can find it at this location.

DEAD IN THE MANGER - Moving from death grind to black grind now, Dead in the Manger made the news yesterday when they raised the curtain on their new “II” video exclusively at Decibel Magazine. The video was directed by David Hall of Handshake Inc.
"This is probably the first time I've made a video for a band without talking to any of the members," Hall stated. "I sort of just got an email one day from the label that asked if I'd be interested in making a video for a black/grind metal band. I listened to the track and really dug what I heard so I agreed. The only real info and guidance I was given was the name of the song, 'II', the album title, and the album's artwork. From listening to the track and taking the cover artwork as inspiration, I decided to try and create a depressing and degraded, impressionistic, moving version of the cover, and use some found footage, stuff that I shot, and mix it together to make a scratchy, black-toned void that hopefully assaults the eyes as nicely as the music assaults the ears. After a few botched attempts, I arrived at the version you see now."
The song was taken from the band’s upcoming ‘Regression’ album, set to be released on 12” vinyl, February 3 through 20 Buck Spin Records. You can stream it right now at this location.
Watch the video for ‘II’ at this location.
