First and foremost, we try to speak to the awful loss of Every Time I Die legend Andy Williams. From there we tackle new singles from Slipknot and Spiritbox, the hallucinatory hellscape stories related to Muse's Meta troubles and Breaking Benjamin's modder feud tirades, and put our tin foil hats to theorise that SURELY the Gallows teasing can't just be for vinyl reissues...Releases:Green Lung - NecropolitanBrian Fallon - Not Bad for New JerseyThe Meffs - BusinessWrong Man - Here’s That FeelingKilling of a Sacred Deer - Encephalic AngelsHarlott - ExsequiisDreadnought - Wars of Spirit // Wards of LightArchgoat - Nightbringer, LightbringerFluisteraars - Jacht der MysterienEpitaphe - III
