Interview time with Snow White's Poison Bite


Horror Punk band Snow White's Poison Bite hails from the cold northern lands of Finland, and have most recently started their horror filled onslaught of our North American shores. Becoming part of the Victory records family the band recently debuted "Featuring: Dr.Gruesome And The Gruesome Gory Horror Show" 

The band has been receiving quite a bit of media attention lately and has just finished up their first music video for the single "Will you meet me in the graveyard?". I caught up with the band a while back before the video and before the album, my brilliant self lost this interview in what I call email hell.  You can check it and their brand new music video out below and learn more about the bands horror influences, past and present.

Totter

Here we have quite an interesting find, my words can't describe the sound of Totter so I will leave you with his own explanation.

Totter's music comes up from the depths, creating a world that must be experienced rather than explained. It defies all conventional boundaries, moving through electronica, blues, americana, grind-core, jazz, dub and into realms that, as of yet, have no name. Totter Todd's prowess with lyrics, his mastery of instruments from all over the world, his knowledge and unique vision blend to create a sound and experience unlike any other. He brings his listener on a journey with him. You will not emerge unchanged. 

If you are of open mind to the experimental and strange, I urge you to check Totter out.

The Fourth Alice


The Fourth Alice is a deathcore band from Toluca, Mexico. I'm not big into this scene but these guys sound like your typical Hot Topic store, which is a double edged sword. I know a lot of people look down on this kind of metal but lets be honest, it sells. I'm sure these guys will make plenty of fans, hopefully some right here from Metalhorizons.


Temple of Void


Here we have a healthy dosage of crushing death metal with all sorts of doom influences.

Temple of Void is an unholy new band from the depths of Detroit and from all corners of the universe. ToV plays doom metal. ToV plays death metal. Temple of Void controls worlds.
And then crushes them.

Siberian Meat Grinder


Siberian Meat Grinder is a crossover thrash metal band from the cold lands of Russia. In their own words;

"We're the Siberian Meat Grinder - a bunch of sick bastards from the cold depths of Russian hell. We got together to play thrash metal, praise the Bear Tsar and impale the heretics and renegades. Listen to our beautiful music, watch our intellectual art-house videos and send us your money, women and pre-paid World Of Warcraft cards!"

I'm picturing these guys ripping stages up with Municipal Waste and a mighty bear, would be one hell of a show! Coming back to reality, you can find their latest mini album 'Versus the World' below.

Ink'd: Morgan Joyce


Today in the wonderful world of Ink'd ladies, we bring you Morgan Joyce a 20 year old hair styling vegan model from New Jersey. With body mods that are almost impressive as her online following, Morgan is part of the Ladies of Metal community (noticing a trend yet?) is a huge supporter of animal rights and at the end of the day really doesn't care what you have to say about her!

We discuss the joys of modelling, the pain of tattooing and the general misconception humans have towards pigs. Check it all out below!

Space Oddity... in Space!

This is by far the coolest thing I have seen in quite some time. The Commander of the International Space Station, Chris Hadfield has filmed a music video of himself covering the 1969 David Bowie single 'Space Oddity'.

The fact that he is actually up in space playing tribute to a great song is one thing, but to actually pull it off without sounding horrible is something else entirely. See for yourself.

Valfader


Valfader is an experimental doom band from the UK, in their own words...

"We got the smooth grooves, the heavies, the happies and the doom... Valfader remember the good ol' days of big riffs and mind trips. Allow us to share..."

Sounds good right? See for yourself below.


Sanktuary- Fire in the Sky

Canadian power thrashers Sanktuary have just released their first single off of their upcoming debut album "Something Fierce". The album is due to be released July 2nd via Spread the Metal records. You can hear the track and find all info on the release below.

The track gives us lots of promise and potential for the rest of the album, I won't be surprised if Sanktuary lives up to the name and brings us something fierce this summer.

Serious Beak


"Huxwhukw" is an eccentric amalgamation of mind-melting, toe-tapping, psychedelic, progressive and poly-rhythmic discordant music, sure to please fans of Meshuggah, Mastodon, Botch, The Mars Volta and King Crimson.

So... how do you even pronounce this album name??
