On Friday, October 24th, The Myth in Maplewood, MN, was for a night of heavy music that deathcore fans won’t soon forget. Had he known, I’m sure the insane number of people packed wall-to-wall inside […]

MAMMOTH: “The End” (Album Review)

October 22, 2025 Alan Ronson Comments Off on MAMMOTH: “The End” (Album Review)

So many beloved rock and metal acts found their third album to be their most defining: Metallica’s Master of Puppets, Iron Maiden’s The Number of the Beast, and Deftones’ White Pony. I got the same […]

SANGUISUGABOGG: “Hideous Aftermath” (Album Review)

October 3, 2025 Alan Ronson Comments Off on SANGUISUGABOGG: “Hideous Aftermath” (Album Review)

I went into Hideous Aftermath with no history with Sanguisugabogg. I knew their name was hard to pronounce (in fact, I still don’t know how to), and I’d heard they were known for being shocking. […]

93X Family Reunion ft Evanescence, Poppy, Dorothy, and Black Map

September 20, 2025 Alan Ronson Comments Off on 93X Family Reunion ft Evanescence, Poppy, Dorothy, and Black Map

The 93X Family Reunion at the Grand Casino Arena in St. Paul is one of the shows I look forward to most each year. They never fail to put together a killer lineup, and this […]

CHEVELLE: “Bright As Blasphemy” (Album Review)

August 15, 2025 Alan Ronson Comments Off on CHEVELLE: “Bright As Blasphemy” (Album Review)

I’ve been riding with Chevelle since Point #1 came out in ’99, and every new album is like checking in with an old friend—you want to see what’s changed and what’s stayed the same. With […]

ZAO: 08-09-25 @ American Legion in Saint Paul, MN

August 11, 2025 Alan Ronson Comments Off on ZAO: 08-09-25 @ American Legion in Saint Paul, MN

Zao’s recent St. Paul stop was less a concert and more a sonic brawl—a sweaty, unpolished, beautiful mess of noise and emotion. Born in the mid-90s metalcore scene, Zao has survived countless lineup changes, shifts […]

July 11, 2025 Alan Ronson Comments Off on dead7: “LOVE WHAT YOU CAN WHILE YOU STILL GOT SOMETHING LEFT TO LOVE” (Album Review)

Hard Rock, Heavy Metal and More…

While Metal tends to be the genre that gets most of our coverage we are committed to reporting on music that is “heavy” regardless of the style and origin. There is a lot of heavy electronic, hip hop, indie and other styles of music that Brutal Planet Magazine will cover. Heavy knows no boundaries.
