ANTIVENIN: Review: BLACK SABBATH, 13
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2013/06/review-black-sabbath-13-2013-universal.html
Review: BLACK SABBATH, 13. But the Emperor is naked! The Emperor’s New Clothes, Hans Christian Andersen, 1837. It wasn’t gonna be Volume 4. It wasn’t even gonna be side one of Never Say Die! There was no way they could ever have a hope in hell of possibly getting it right – was there? A band whose first four (er, six, actually. Records are the dictionary-definition of tectonic: land-forming slabs from which all headbanger life was borne. Even Ozzy-era albums seven ( Technical Ecstasy. But here we are, ma...

ANTIVENIN: ANTIVENIN's YEAR-END RECAP FOR 2012
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2012/12/antivenins-year-end-recap-for-2012.html
ANTIVENIN's YEAR-END RECAP FOR 2012. Well, that time of year is upon us again. You know, when I magically remember I have a blog, and post my year-end ramblings on shit I listened to this past year. I wrestled with the idea of not bothering with a year-end best-of this year, but lucky for the lot of you, ego won out over ennui (it always does, doesn't it? So without further ado…. 20 FAUSTCOVEN- Hellfire and Funeral Bells. 19 LORD MANTIS – Pervertor. 18 NEUROSIS – Honor Found In Decay. Remember when you w...

ANTIVENIN: A nod to the oldschool - my first interview with Lemmy Kilmister
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2010/12/nod-to-oldschool-my-first-interview.html
A nod to the oldschool - my first interview with Lemmy Kilmister. In honor of yesterday's announcement of Motörhead. S return to Vancouver February 7th (with Clutch and Valient Thorr, no less - what a bill! The Wörld is Yours. I thought I'd recall and post this old chestnut from the first time I got the chance to sit down with His Lemness back in 2005 (the second time, in 2009? Originally published Summer 2005 in the very short-lived. North-Vancouver-based music magazine POINT. I (barely) regain composur...

ANTIVENIN: In Memoriam: Jeff Hanneman, 1964-2013
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2013/05/in-memoriam-jeff-hanneman-1964-2013.html
In Memoriam: Jeff Hanneman, 1964-2013. I never saw Slayer. With yesterday’s incredibly sad news of the passing of Jeff Hanneman, I never will, now. Sure - of course I wanted to, don’t get me wrong – but every time they came around, I just figured ‘ Ah, they tour all the time. I can catch them next time. 8217; But then, once Hanneman’s arm injury/fasciitis sidelined him in 2011, I no longer had the desire to only see three-fourths of Slayer (all due respect to Gary Holt). Prior to that, my metal world con...

ANTIVENIN: THE GREAT AND DREAD YEAR-END TOP-10 2010 (and more!)
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2010/12/great-and-dread-antivenin-year-end-top.html
THE GREAT AND DREAD YEAR-END TOP-10 2010 (and more! I'm not the first to say it, and surely I won't be the last, but looking back, 2010 was a significant year for metal. There were several tragic losses this year ( Ronnie James Dio, Peter Steele, Makh Daniels. Here, then without further ado, are the Antivenin Top 10 of 2010. Sorry, no graphics because blogger kept fucking up my formatting when I tried to include pics of album covers.). Any band as laden with controversy as Watain. Loses validity, as.

ANTIVENIN: Meet the Honorable Kent Basky... Also, meet SADISTIC HUMOR.
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2010/06/honorable-kent-basky-reviews-sadistic.html
Meet the Honorable Kent Basky. Also, meet SADISTIC HUMOR. It's an honor for me to introduce the next guest blogger at Antivenin. Kent Basky is an old friend, and I was a fan of his before I even met him. Y'see kids, back in the mythical olden days before the internet, and before all broadcast media in Canada was owned by only 3 or 4 megacorporations, there was this incredible thing called public access TV, where, if you could come up with a viable (. Idea for a TV show, your local televi. My own show was...

ANTIVENIN: Knock 'Em Dead, Kid - ANTIVENIN and the Crüe
http://kyleantivenin.blogspot.com/2014/01/knock-em-dead-kid-antivenin-and-crue.html
Knock 'Em Dead, Kid - ANTIVENIN and the Crüe. Yesterday, Mötley Crüe held a press conference announcing their final tour in 2014 (for realsies this time), and the music-critic cynic in me nearly ruptured something internally, trying so hard not to give a shit. But I can’t front. Gets a pass too, but more on that in a bit). I can’t say I’m sad to see them finally put it to bed, but there’s a tiny light inside me that’s flickering out with their retirement, for sure. For my birthday at the end of August (c...
