Korn will release their highly anticipated new album The Serenity Of Suffering on Friday. It features the track Rotting In Vain and a special appearance from Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor on A Different World. The album is crushingly heavy and just what a lot of Korn fans have been waiting for. Don’t miss the vinyl edition available for pre-order now on the Maniacs store.
Having been an active band since 2003 and taking worldwide stages by storm after their Massacre Records debut Barbed Wire Metal in 2011, Melbourne’s Elm Street return with their second full-length album. Knock ‘Em Out…With A Metal Fist is out now via Firestarter Distribution and features years of hard work and dedication that has shaped the band into a leading force in the heavy metal genre.
There comes a time when the journey ends, the road stops, the lights go out. After a decade spent leading and shaping the Australian heavy music scene, Sydney’s Buried In Verona are about to play their final scene. A national tour through October and November with Capture The Crown, Foxblood and Arkive will be the band’s last ever shows. After five albums – the last three cracking the Australian Top 20 Album Chart – and a year after their latest slab of revenge fuelled vitriol and bile that was, Vultures Above, Lions Below (UNFD), now is the time to seek paths anew. See them one last time at Max Watt’s on Saturday November 5.
