While we hate to draw attention to hate groups that obviously seek it, music fans deserve to know that the lovely people at the infamous Westboro Baptist Church has stated intentions to picket at the funeral of Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman in a recent tweet:
Hanneman passed away this past Thursday due to liver failure. He was 49 years old.
Hailing from Lincoln, UK Nieviem is a newer skate punk band that has been tearing it up for a little over a year. Steadily releasing new songs, live recordings, and EPs, the band continues the trend with their second EP The Hope Is There. The EP is fast and heavy, borrowing from hardcore but still strongly entrenched in 90's skate punk. If that sounds up your alley, then give it a listen here.
