It is safe to say that Disfiguring the Goddess defines a new generation of slam and brutal monstrosity. This project captures an upmost brutal sound and vigorous feel with an electronic edge. This project has been compared to infamous acts such as Suffocation because of the atrocious yet individualistic style it obtains. But what truly augments the fascination with this project is that it is run by one man: Cameron Argon. This man is known by several names other than Disfiguring the Goddess, most famously in the electronic community by Big Chocolate. The combination of diverse musical influences with the love and passion of making music makes anything this man creates truly unforgettable.
Argon formed this project in 2006, and has thus far released four albums under the Disfiguring the Goddess name. Alongside his work as Big Chocolate and other projects he works on, he has found the time to regularly release a Disfiguring the Goddess album ever since 2009. He most recently released two albums on December 10th 2013: Deprive and Black Earth Child. Both of these releases take the relentless aggression to a whole new level of headbanging mastery. These albums truly open the door to limitless possibilities to be expected from Disfiguring the Goddess.
The Age of Metal was able to speak to Argon following the release of these albums. In the interview we discuss the mindset behind writing both Deprive and Black Earth Child, the combination of his electronic and metal work, and how he allows his individualistic style to flourish when writing metal music.

Massacre is one of the most recognizable Florida death metal bands. The band was founded by current members Rick “Rozz” DeLillo and Terry Butler and recently added members Ed Webb and Mike Mazzonetto. All members of Massacre have had their own history in the metal community, such as DeLillo and Butler being former members of Death.
With the band’s newest full-length Back From Beyond expecting a release this spring, Massacre will prove they’re truly death metal legends. Following the release of the album, Massacre will be touring in support of the record. Their vigorous yet brutal style will evoke fury in the listener.
The Age of Metal was able to speak to Terry Butler. In the interview we discuss Back From Beyond, the recording of the album, and what else they have planned for this year.

Toxic Holocaust is one of the most unique thrash metal bands. Their signature sound of fusing punk and metal inspired a large part of the underground metal scene. Their sound is singular, yet is enjoyable; qualities that truly make a successful band. With their fifth studio album Chemistry of Consciousness being released along with a supporting tour, Toxic Holocaust will conquer your mind.
Chemistry of Consciousness has to be one of the most vigorous albums written. Every track is filled with upmost agility and rage. Ever quality about the album is powerful: the drug-using mind-control lyrical concept, the velocity of the playing and guttural-style vocals. The only thing that can match these nefarious elements is a live show. Toxic Holocaust will be touring North America in support of the album, and it will be one hell of a show!
The Age of Metal was able to speak to vocalist Joel Grind. In the interview we discuss information about Chemistry of Consciousness such as the lyrical theme and their more punk-influenced sound. We also discuss the Grind’s view of doing drugs and how he views about both the metal and punk scene.
