My homeboys in Hetfield & Hetfield have been working on some new material and they recently hooked me up with an exclusive premiere of a new track titled “Mega Shark.” This track is amazing, it’s a big step up from their album Tidal Wave Dreams, which I loved. I can’t wait to hear some more new material. Until then however, you can enjoy “Mega Shark” below. Get into it.
Hetfield & Hetfield will be hitting the road with Vattnet Viskar next month. You can see the flyer and dates after the jump. [Continue...]

Okay, at first the name might give you the wrong impression but don’t let it fool you, this technically proficient rock four-piece from Massachusetts is amazing. These guys know how to play their instruments and they do so with such flare and powerful execution that my mind was blown from my first listen. It’s not too often that clean vocals like these catch my attention, but this time around I cannot help but love them. They fit the music perfectly and I couldn’t see it any other way.
What can I say, 2011 was a very conflicted year for me musically. Sometimes I wanted to gaze off into an abyss and reflect on life with some lo-fi ambient black metal, and other times I wanted to pound ‘Gansetts on a beach listening to Havok with Swayze’s dead body dressed as Bodhi from Point Break (Weekend at Bernie’s style). Either way, it was a year of great music by some great people.
