Club Sonar In Baltimore Is Shut Down
UPDATE: It appears Sonar is going to re-open and both Maryland Deathfest and the sold out Deftones shows will still be happening there and go on according to plan. What a PR nightmare and awful mess. I’m glad Sonar is still open but I have a feeling the next time I go there it will [...]

Metal has its own holiday, thanks to VH1 Classic, which has declared November 11th, 2011 AKA 11-11-11, as 'National Metal Day.' While NMD, as we'll call it, will be a celebration of all things metal for an entire day, the channel will launch copious amounts of metal programming beginning November 1st for the '11 Days of Metal" countdown. The countdown programming for the headbanger's holiday will feature metal concerts, specials movies and videos, all of which will pave the way for the grand finale on 11-11-11.
11-11-11 will mark the premiere of 'Metal Evolution,' a documentary series created by Banger Films. It airs at 10 PM ET.
Before the premiere, though, some of metal's most influential artists will be spotlighted each night during countdown programming
