Polis extreme metal titans, Behemoth, recently filmed a video for the song “Inner Sanctum” with director Mateusz “Mania” Winkiel. The video is now available on Myspace, and can be viewed below. The song is taken from the band's latest critically acclaimed release, 'The Apostasy'.
Stated Behemoth mainman Nergal:
“What’s up everybody! Here we finally come with our brand new video…surprised? I fuckin’ hope so. I’m still blown away by the effect myself. Why? Coz it looks like NOTHING I’ve ever seen in the metal genre. Lately it felt like we’ve pretty much explored every territory in the world of music videos, especially with our last clip for “At the left hand ov god”. This time we took completely opposite artistic approach…we went black and white, absolutely no effects, analogue film tape…and something we’re doing for the first time ever: acting. I truly believe this bizarre video will show you a little bit different aspect of Behemoth’s complex nature.
Watch and enjoy!”
Behemoth will soon embark on a tour of Asian territories, which will bring the touring cycle for 'The Apostasy' to a close.
With the release of 'The Apostasy', Behemoth completed their contractual obligations to Century Media and have since signed with Metal Blade. The band's first release under the Metal Blade banner will be an EP entitled 'Ezkaton', which is set for release on November 11th, 2008.

Brazilian wrecking crew, Krisiun, made their triumphant return to the head of the Death Metal class with the release of 'Southern Storm'. This furious offering has received massive critical praise since its release, being heralded as “epic, polished and streamlined assaults with frenetic hell fury” by Decibel.
Century Media Records, Metal Sucks and Metal Injection have teamed up to provide a forum to aspiring video directors who think today’s metal music videos suck. We are now giving them a chance to prove their skills with a Krisiun video contest
We give you the audio for Krisiun’s song “Slaying Steel” and you make the video. Not only will the grand prize winner receive “The Ultimate Krisiun Touring Case” filled with an autographed discography, drumsticks, pics, autographed drumheads, t-shirts and all sorts of other crazy shit — but the winning entry will be shown to the band and will have a shot at becoming the OFFICIAL video for “Slaying Steel!” Two runners-ups will receive a signed copy of Krisiun’s new album 'Southern Storm'.

Rock author Joel McIver's twelfth book, 'The 100 Greatest Metal Guitarists', will be published globally in January 2009 by Jawbone Press, the world's leading publisher of guitar titles. Featuring a foreword by Glen Benton of Deicide, the book takes the reader in reverse order from No. 100 to No. 1, the greatest metal guitarist of all time. McIver — a regular contributor to Total Guitar magazine, the biggest guitar mag in Europe — based his selection on the technical ability and historical significance of each player and adds that all generations of metal are covered in the book, with the oldest guitarist aged 61 and the youngest a mere 26.
McIver says, "The idea for this book came to me a couple of years ago after I read a list of the supposed 100 best metal guitarists of all time in a popular guitar magazine that should really know better. The list contained all these non-metal guitarists like Neil Young and Kurt Cobain, so I thought, 'Screw this!' and wrote my own list, which became an 80,000-word book. 'The 100 Greatest Metal Guitarists' features musicians from heavy metal, thrash metal, death metal, black metal, power metal, doom metal and grindcore bands and that's it!"

But these people might need one very, very soon! Read on for the official synopsis and trailer for ROADSIDE ATTRACTIONS November 7th release of the horro film HOUSE!
HOUSE official synopsis:
On a deserted back road in Alabama, Jack and Stephanie find themselves driving fast and running late. Their world suddenly changes when a strange accident leaves them stranded with no car, no cell phone coverage, and no help in sight. They have no choice except to continue on foot. As darkness approaches, they round a bend and see a small sign at the top of a long gravel driveway: The Wayside Inn.
The exhausted couple stands in front of an inviting house, complete with gated stone wall, ancient oak trees, and a note welcoming weary travelers. Inside they find another couple with an equally troubling story about a similar accident. It seems that backwoods pranksters have made their day miserable. Still, they are safe . . .
