Smother Magazine Band Spotlight: Chimaira
Chimaira are riding strong through the month of October, as their Roadrunner Records debut hit stores on October 2nd and the band has been heavily rumored to be on the pending Slayer/Hatebreed tour in the coming months.

One listen to Pass Out of Existence should silence any who would claim Chimaira aren't true metal. Industrial edged seething metal destruction awaits at every turn.
