Vic Rattlehead Keeps Stacking Up the Bodies in Megadeth’s “Killing Time” Video

It’s getting hard to find something to talk about with these things. As the fifth music video in the The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead! Video Series, the story continues as three Vic Rattleheads now are out on the hunt for some big fat dude holding a woman hostage who I think is the human version of Vic’s wife?

Code Orange Dropped an Elbow on the Internet By Finally Streaming WWE Star Bray Wyatt's Entrance Music

Code Orange Dropped an Elbow on the Internet By Finally Streaming WWE Star Bray Wyatt’s Entrance Music

Sigh Released a Video for Their Latest Single "Shoujahitsumetsu"

Sigh Released a Video for Their Latest Single “Shoujahitsumetsu”

With their unique fusion of black metal and psychedelic rock, Sigh have long been an interesting act to follow.
