Eyehategod Responds To Senator Rapert

New Orleans sludge metal legends Eyehategod has recently found themselves in some hot water with Republican Senator Jason Rapert of Arkansas. A poster for their upcoming show in Little Rock (see below) displayed the politician biting a baby, who responded by labeling the band as "extreme liberals" who "torment his stand for better moral values." Rapert also urged people not to attend the venue (Vinos,) demanded the band and venue issue an apology, claimed they have "no respect for babies lives or people of faith" and that they invited the Satanic Temple to the city.

Eyehategod frontman Mike IX has issued a retort to the Senator, which reads as follows:

"Open letter to Sen. Jason Rapert (R):

"Thank you for all the attention you've given the EyeHateGod show in Little Rock, Arkansas. Any image that was used of you is protected under the First Amendment, which supposedly protects us 'Americans.' Please stick to destroying peoples lives by trying to ban same sex marriage, opposing medical marijuana legalization, threatening minorities, and absolutely attacking women's right to choose. Your moral crusade against basic human rights will be fought at every turn.

"Mike IX Williams

Sins Of The Damned Posts New Song Online

Shadow Kingdom Records has set May 3rd as the international release date for Sins Of The Damned's debut album, Striking The Bell Of Death, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.

Formed in 2013 in the city of Santiago, Sins Of The Damned have become a cult institution in their homeland of Chile, itself a hotbed of heavy metal mania. The band self-released their first couple of demos, totally DIY but 100% professional, and prodigiously perfected their craft with subsequent short-length releases every year since. And now, at last arrives the full distillation of Sins Of The Damned's eternal, unyielding aesthetic: the full-length Striking The Bell Of Death! More...
