In Which We Took Stock of 2014… So Far
THE METALSUCKS BEST OF 2014… SO FAR PLAYLIST
So instead of the usual Worst Week playlist, I thought this week, we’d do a playlist consisting of the MetalSucks staff’s favorite albums of 2014 so far (or, at least, the ones which are available on Spotify). I completely stole this idea from Godless… thanks for the inspiration, bruh!
The usual Worst Week playlist will return next week. ‘Til then, enjoy these mega-jams…

Here are this week’s top stories:
- In Lamb of God news: we were thrilled with One Direction’s “cover” of “Again We Rise”! We were less thrilled to learn that Randy Blythe burned his penis with hot coffee. Total bummer, dude.
- Corey Taylor revealed that if he has his druthers, someday Slipknot will tour with Mudvayne and Mushroomhead.
- Babymetal are finally coming to America! As an opening act for… Lady Gaga?!?
- Look out, Crips! Watch your back, Bloods! Phil Anselmo and The Dillinger Escape Plan’s Ben Weinman have started a gang!
- Not surprising: Dimebag had awesome taste in music.
- Did Tim Lambesis, who is going to jail for trying to have his wife/the mother of his children murdered, wish the world a happy Father’s Day???
- Two members of King 810 were arrested on assault charges.
- We learned that Kendall Jenner loves Slayer.
