Hmmm... the new Baroness is pretty rad, but I still don't know about that Suicide Silence.
A little too trendy for me, but at least they seem to have more energy than some of those new bands. It all starts to sound the same after awhile though.
Videos available for your own judging eyes below (note that the Suicide Silence video is just a link because the video kept messing up my blog):

Suicide Silence: Do they suck?
Deathcore sucks for the most part. That is a fact. But does Suicide Silence suck? Many in the true metal crowd would say yes and from what I've heard of "No Time to Bleed" it is pretty bland music that basically pummels you into a deathcore coma.
However, this live performance actually got me to listen to three full songs in a row, a feat which I never thought would happen. Two lame things about the video: 1) It was recorded at the Hot Topic headquarters. 2) The singer acts like a tool at times and doesn't seem to give up trying to instruct the crowd to react.
However, the band does put on an energetic performance and is really tight live. You have to give them that and for what it's worth, they definitely do the breakdowns well.
Check it out and decide for yourself below.

Megadeth and Slayer Team Up to Fight Crime... I mean... Tour!
It turns out that the rumors going around about Megadeth and Slayer taking part in a co-headlining tour are true. It was announced today that the thrash legends will be touring together along with Machine Head and Suicide Silence for our neighbors to the north. That's right so far, there are only four dates with this line-up and they are all in Canada!
More than likely you can expect tour dates to be announced in the States shortly, or else there are going to a lot of pissed off Americans!
As for the opening bands... meh! It seems like Machine Head, despite my feelings of them being only a mediocre band, are always picked to open for the big name metal acts.
Why not get a band like God Forbid that deserves more exposure, or at least a cooler band like Gojira to kick ass opening up for this tour. Better yet, do some research and get a lesser known band that deserves some publicity a chance (yeah, I know that the labels probably put this stuff together).
As for Suicide Silence, I think they could have found a better fit. There are a ton of bands that sound similar to this right now, that are actually doing it better. But who am I to judge?
