Josh Middleton of Sylosis Takes the Oath [AUDIO]
I'll be the first person to admit I'm prejudiced when it comes to new bands playing thrash because in my mind the best has already been done and will never be topped, so what's the point?

Gojira are as hot as a pistol these days and at this point that can slap their name on just about anything and it's damn near guaranteed to be a big deal.
Daylight Dies have to be the most European sounding American band on the planet. Not that that's a bad thing, in fact it's quite the contrary as I listen to a ton of bands from both sides of the pond.
The first and only time I saw Vision Of Disorder live was at Ozzfest '97 in Dallas and going into it, I knew nothing about the band. But after their set I immediately went out and bought their self-titled debut and it remained in my CD player for the better part of six months.
Just when you thought Lamb Of God couldn't possibly get any cooler, they go and do something like ask members of the military to provide pics so they can pay tribute to them in a video to be shown during their upcoming U.S. tour.
The Dude just so happens to be Shaun Callaghan and he provides the pipes and plays guitar for a melodic metal band out of Boston by the name of Give Zombies The Vote and his cat, Bill Murray is probably the coolest cat in existence.
I dig me some Dethklok but for whatever reason I haven't kept up with the show in a while and after watching their new video for "The Galaxy" I'm reminded of the over-the-top humor that made me a fan of the show in the first place.
Pathology unleashed their latest batch of slamming death metal goodness The Time of Great Purification back on September 25 and vocalist Jonathan Huber gave me a holler on last Saturday's (9/29) edition of The Oath to mark the occasion.
While there's no storyline or anything groundbreaking in Gojira's new video for "Explosia", the production company did an outstanding job of capturing the emotion and intensity of Gojira's live set.
I'm always down for the "meat and potatoes" of anything. Whether it's music, videos, sports, movies, or whatever, I'm okay with sticking to the basics.
Most people don't get into brutal music but for those of us who are into it, there's nothing like the power of well executed technical death metal.
Join me every week for the best metal on the planet with The Oath, Saturday nights from 10p-1a.
