MOMS ON METAL

Here's something amusing...

It's safe to say when it comes to metal some people just don't get it. Remember the last time you got your mom into a Necrophagist song? Yeah, me neither.

Well the awesome people at The Daily Disruption have assembled a group of mothers to review various metal and hardcore songs. This includes a glowing review of Cannibal Corpse's "Hammer Smashed Face"...

Watch below for a laugh.

CANNIBAL CORPSE 25TH ANNIVERSARY SHOWS

Hate 'em or love 'em, it's damn near impossible to deny the impact Cannibal Corpse has had on the Metal genre, in particular the Death Metal sub-genre. This New Yorker turned Flordian Death Metal unit have been going strong ever since the late 80s. And this year they will celebrate their 25th anniversary the only way they know how... with metal \m/

If you live in Florida, hell - even if you don't live in Florida, and consider yourself a fan of these Death Metal icons, you should make an effort to hit up these shows in November. Check the dates and the official statement from the band down below. And you better believe we included some death for your ears.

“We are very excited to be doing these shows in Florida this November. We formed the band in the first week of December back in 1988 so these shows will be happening almost exactly 25 years after our formation. It will be great to celebrate our band’s anniversary in the state that helped put death metal on the map. Also, we are very happy to be able play Ft. Lauderdale to make up for the show we missed there in June. And I think fans in both cities will be happy when they see the ticket price for these shows!”

CLARINET DEATH METAL

Totally heavy. Totally brutal. Totally face plow. Totally clarinet? That’s right…clarinet death metal. Had to bring it back. Caleb is deserving of mad props for his woodwind skills. Here, our specimen is seen performing renditions of Necrophagist, Decapitated and Cannibal Corpse!
