You Me At Six Vs Bring Me The Horizon

Josh and Oli bro-down in New York!

Posters: Love the Black Veil Brides? Here's five awesome posters to put on your wall. Or door. It's up to you.

Win!: We've got a heap of cool clothes from Disturbia to give away to six lucky readers.

Also in the issue: Buffalo bruisers Every Time I Die invite K! into the studio as they record their sixth studio album.

The Prodigy's Keith Flint puts down the petrol and matches long enough to talk to Kerrang! about their headline appearance at Download 2012.

Gallows prepare to unleash a new EP next month. It's less than eight minutes long. That's like half an Opeth song.

This week's hottest new bands include Against The Flood, Crossbreaker, Hymns and Circles. Plus there's a round-up of Katie P's week in rock.

Members of Lostprophets, My Passion, Lamb Of God, Rolo Tomassi, Muse and The Blackout grow some hair on their top lips to raise money for charity. Some look awesome. Some look rubbish.

Do you like answering questions and putting the answer into a grid? Well, you're in luck! It's the return of the Kerrang! Krossword. This week, Avenged Sevenfold fans are at a massive advantage.

Frank Turner is playing Wembley soon. We asked him about that and how brilliant his year has been.

Four Year Strong fired their keyboard player and made a move away from pop-punk. We ask if the band are making the gamble of their lives?

Dave Grohl loves Kverlertak (pronounced kwell-eh-tak). Ian Winwood caught up with the Norwegian punk metallers as they prepare to pillage the UK.

When Black Sabbath revealed they had got back together, the office started mentally compiling their ultimate Ozzy-era Sabbath mix-tape and favourite albums. We then got Nick Ruskell to put those thoughts into a two-page Ultimate Guide To Black Sabbath. Slayer guitarist Kerry King chips in, too.

What has a life in rock n' roll taught Alter Bridge frontman Myles Kennedy? We asked him. He replied. We recorded it and typed it out. Our art desk made it look nice. Et voila. An Alter Bridge feature!

Evanescence vocalist Amy Lee invited K! to glimpse behind the curtain of their well-oiled touring machine. We also find out what she keeps in her 'special drawer'.

Reading shredders Sylosis take on the K! quiz. They got a question about one of their own lyrics wrong. See how they get on with the other 14 questions...

Twin Atlantic frontman Sam McTrusty looks ahead to their UK headline tour and tells us about his burgeoning sweets addiction. And something called the Red Headed Slut.

The K! Verdict: There's live reviews of A Day To Remember, Within Temptation, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Will Haven and Dimmu Borgir, plus new albums by Asking Alexandria, Rammstein, The Dangerous Summer, Living With Lions and Brigade.

Fearless Vampire Killers review the continuing lip-chewing vampire wolf-boy saga Twilight: Breaking Dawn.

So, that's this week's Kerrang! in a massive digital nutshell. Out Wednesday, November 23.

I feel rather embarrassed for the person who reviewed Within Temptation's gig at Brixton. It must be awful to be sent to a gig by a band they clearly disliked and then come away feeling so bitter and twisted that the other 4999 people in the audience had such a great time.

dude, i dunno if chili peppers bombed their second night or what, but seems your reviewers kind of complaining about gig admin, when really the band is what matters and they played fuckign incredibly on the first night at the O2, best gig of my life (and I have see the K! voted number 1 live band in the world, Rammstein) and they beat that, they beat system, metallica... seriously. RHCP are gods of the arena

Re: your review of Within Temptation @ Brixton Academy. FFS I can't see the point of sending someone who clearly doesn't care for the band's material or the symphonic rock genre in general to review their show. A bit like sending a Westlife fan to review a Metallica gig, don't you think?

Posted by Aub | November 23, 2011 11:38 PM | Reply to this

You'd think they would of mentioned something about Queen? As Freddie Mercury died 20 years ago today. RIP.

K! what happened to this weeks mag? I cant find any stores that sell it (I've tried 5 different stores) as it hasnt been delivered this week :(

Posted by Nick | November 27, 2011 2:54 PM | Reply to this

I was very dissapointed to see that Kerrang! gave only two K to Within Temptation live at Brixton on the 11th November. Surely, they would've listened to their Unforgiving album before going to see them live, and secondly, they only give out four or five K to THEIR favourite bands/artists, so it's one-sided all the time. I respect everyone has their own opinion on music, however, if this concert didn't live up to their expectations, I don't know who will. Sharon has an amazing voice, as she did on that evening, despite her having a sore throat. Within Temptation were spectacular, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing them again live soon.

Within Temptation were amazing live at the Brixton 02 Acadamy they deserve more then 2 Ks. Actually one of my favourite gigs i have been to in a very long time. As for the comments made about Sharon i thought they were horrid as she looked and sounded amazing ( even more amazing when i met her in person ) really disappointed :((((( cannot wait to see them again

I've been reading Kerrang on and off since the early/mid 80s but have pretty much lost confidence in the magazine now.
The Within Temptation review was the last straw. You need new staff. I mean a completely new staff.

I didn't buy it, is there by any chance I can get this issue now?

Posted by Kamilla HĂžjmark | December 5, 2011 3:28 PM | Reply to this

i forgot to pick up a copy D; any way i can still get it? it's the first i've missed in 2 years :C

Posted by Angel Cunningham | December 5, 2011 5:31 PM | Reply to this

I agree with many of the other comments here - why on earth did you send a reviewer who seemed to actively dislike the band (and symphonic metal in general) from the outset? The review was terrible and insulting, and was quite an injustice to the brilliant show put on by Within Temptation. I used to be a fan of your magazine but I won't be buying it again since you're now taking that sort of attitude towards my favourite genre.
