Back from Birmingham, UK and the monumental Back To The Beginning concert, Daniella asks Barbaranne to share leaving no stone unturned. The epic sendoff of Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath had no less than Rival Sons, Gojira, Halestorm, Mastodon, Alice In Chains, Pantera, GnR, Slayer and Metallica pay tribute to the originators of Metal, Black Sabbath. Ozzy did sets with the No More Tears band, including Zakk and then finished the nearly 11 hour concert with the original Black Sabbath, ending in fireworks and quite a lot of tears.

Myself, Danielle, Evan, Letty & Joe of The Metal Cell Forums react to Metallica hitting Dublin for two nights in 2026 with Gojira, Avatar, Pantera & Knocked Loose being brought along for the craic! (Live Stream Podcast recorded in May 26th, 2025. Metallica is coming back to Ireland in 2026, and we need to talk about it. In this episode, we're diving headfirst into what this gig means to Irish fans—because let's be honest, it's more than just another show. It's Metallica. In Ireland. Again. For a lot of us, it's memories of first gigs, old t-shirts, and that feeling when the lights drop and “Ecstasy of Gold” hits. We also take a look at the different packages Metallica are offering this time around—from standard tickets to the full VIP experience—and we're giving our honest thoughts: worth it or nah? And of course, we couldn't leave out the support bands. We chat about who's warming up the stage, what they bring to the night, and whether they can get the crowd fired up before James, Lars, Kirk, and Rob take over. Whether you're already counting the days, still trying to convince your mates to go, or just want to relive some Metallica memories, this episode is for you. Get your horns up and let's get into it!

Case and Sam are joined by Nic Woolfe to stomp like a kaiju (stomp stomp stomp)! We're digging into the Monster-verse with "Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)"! Overview In the podcast discussion titled "Another Pass at Godzilla King of the Monsters," the hosts, alongside guest Nic Woolfe, delve into their personal connections to the Godzilla franchise, reflecting on how nostalgia and earlier influences shaped their appreciation for Kaiju films. They analyze the 2019 film's financial performance, placing it within the context of the MonsterVerse, and offer praise for its visual elements, character portrayals, and emotional depth. The conversation touches on the film's themes, such as the insignificance of personal problems against global threats, and critiques the marketing strategies that may have contributed to its underwhelming box office results. The hosts discuss scientific inaccuracies, potential improvements, and casting alternatives, asserting that while the film has its flaws, it remains enjoyable. They conclude with suggestions for future explorations within the franchise, including their next episode focus on "Highlander 2: The Quickening."

We had the pleasure of interviewing Highly Suspect over Zoom video! Never content to follow, Highly Suspect push rock music forward by trusting their instincts and raising a middle finger to everything else. The multi-GRAMMY® Award-nominated and gold-certified band - Johnny Stevens [vocals, guitar], Ryan Meyer [drums, vocals], Rich Meyer [bass, vocals], Matt Kofos [guitar] and Mark Schwartz [keyboards/guitars] - don't just talk about burning the rules and breaking the mold; they actually do so.The band's chemically imbalanced mix of gritty guitars, haunting piano, off-kilter synths, hip-hop production, cinematic vision, and beautifully possessed vocals transformed them into a phenomenon beloved by a diehard global fanbase known as “MCID” [My Crew Is Dope]. After grinding it out as an underground curiosity, they scraped a path to mainstream infamousness with their 2015 full-length debut, Mister Asylum. It earned a GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of “Best Rock Album” as the single “Lydia” received a nomination for “Best Rock Song” was certified gold by the RIAA.The 2016 follow-up The Boy Who Died Wolf roared to life with the gold-selling “My Name Is Human,” which catapulted to #1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart and garnered a GRAMMY® Nomination for “Best Rock Song.” 2019's MCID affirmed them as the rare outfit who could collaborate with Young Thug and Gojira on the same album. Loudwire hailed the latter among the “50 Best Rock Albums of 2019.” With hundreds of millions of streams and sold out shows on multiple continents, Highly Suspect charged ahead of the pack again on 2022's The Midnight Demon Club with no compromises and no apologies as they challenged rock to be dangerous and maybe even life-changing again. This past summer the band shared their latest opus, As Above, So Below, is out now via Roadrunner/300/ElektraWe want to hear from you!

A newly released teaser image shows a shadowy figure standing over her grave with the tagline "NOTHING IS SACRED," leading to backlash from fans who argue that bringing her back would cheapen the emotional impact of her original demise. While Marvel has yet to confirm details, they have promised more information in the coming week, leaving readers divided over what this could mean for Spider-Man's story.Donny Cates- The creator of Knull is finally returning to the fray after 3 years of turmoil and trouble.“Just wanted to check in with all of you and let you know that your boy is back on the dance floor,” Cates shared on Instagram. “Expect announcements this summer.

Les français du groupe de métal Gojira ont reçu le dimanche 2 février un Grammy award à Los Angeles, pour leur performance pendant la cérémonie d'ouverture des Jeux olympiques de Paris. Ils partagent ce prix avec la chanteuse lyrique Marina Viotti, qui les accompagnait dans cette époustouflante reprise du chant révolutionnaire « Ah ! Ça ira ! ».Gojira a été lancé en 1996 par Jo et Mario Duplantier, deux frères originaires d'un petit village des Landes. Peu connus d'une grande partie du public en France, leur passion et leur travail pendant 30 ans les ont amenés au sommet.
