(02/14/15 Update: And, of course, just to prove me wrong, Failure is back together and has a new EP - thanks, jerks.)
Welcome to Ton of Metal, kids. Here you will find a heavy music video posted every Saturday, as well as short (sometimes medium-to-long) commentary on the great bands that I have gone through the pain and disappointment of discovering so you don't have to. Also, every fourth Saturday, I'll post a trip down memory lane that I like to call Flashback, as well as the occasional theme month. I do all the work - all you have to do is subscribe at the bottom, or click in every Saturday and CRANK IT!

Flashback - Failure
Ok kids, it's that time again: FLASHBACK! Since it's my blog and I like to educate my readers (you) and bend the idea of what heavy metal is whenever I can, I thought we'd pull an interesting twist on the flashback today. It's a cover of Depeche Mode's "Enjoy the Silence" done for the DM tribute, "For the Masses" by the band Failure (which unfortunately turned out to be a prophetic name in that band's case, unlike for bands like Garbage - seems like a 50/50 shot on calling your band "Snot" or some such, so consider carefully before you get the kick drums painted.) So, the original song isn't exactly metal, but I assure you this version metals (or at least alternative-s) it up, so be sure to CRANK IT!
