Ultimate Album Collection #7: Pearl Jam "10″ [VIDEOS]

Wes — Mon, 25 Mar 2013 10:00:59 +0000

Pearl Jam meant a lot more to me than Nirvana. I like Nirvana’s stuff, but I just wasn’t angry enough at the time to bond with Kurt. Pearl Jam provided a better bridge between the traditional rock at the time and grunge. Pearl Jam “10″ brought us some of the most memorable rock songs ever. [...]

Wes — Fri, 15 Mar 2013 13:24:45 +0000

The cool thing about “The Real Five” is it is indisputable. It’s the top five most played tracks. In the instance of today’s artist, it proved me completely wrong.

Wes — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 11:00:58 +0000

It’s been too long since I’ve seen Korn live. I NEED to see this band live every 9-12 months to recharge my batteries. For some reason this video of their full concert in a wheat field started showing up in my trends on my YouTube page and I could not be happier. More after the [...]

Wes — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 15:27:06 +0000

Okay, the thing that strikes me the most about this video is, “why is this statue playing with the ball from the cover of Van Halen’s 5150 album?”. Oh, that and Metallica and The Red Hot Chili Peppers together. More after the jump. Metallica continues to try to expand their reach beyond typical “metal only” [...]

Yes that is Lubbock, Texas, and the Ampitheater in the new Halestorm video. In fact, I fell and laid near paralyzed from the pallet in front of those electrical boxes in the still picture. You'll also see on stage shots where you can see the easily identifiable back of the metal Amp stage. The action doesn't take long to kick in either.

Wes — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 19:07:33 +0000

This is MUCH better than it should be. It's host Chris Jericho taking questions from a field of reporters who are actually some of the performers at this years Golden Gods awards. Lzzy from Halestorm is there, so are Maria Brink, Five Finger Death Punch and Anthrax. It's an over the top cameo from Zakk Wylde that steals the show. More after the break.

My Favorite New Track-Beware Of Darkness with "Howl"

Wes — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 15:15:00 +0000

This one is really killing it for me. It's kind of like The Black Crows meet Jet or Wolfmother with a splash of Hendrix thrown in. Whether you like the song, the band or whatever, there is no doubt that they ROCK! This guys whoop ass, pull the pants up and then whoop that ass again. Click through for the video.

David Draiman's "Device" Is Coming [VIDEO]

Wes — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 22:57:21 +0000

The new project from Disturbed vocalist David Draiman is about to drop, and we think it just may be epic. I’m talking, the end of Disturbed epic. More after the jump.

Rob Zombie Covers Grand Funk

Wes — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 11:00:29 +0000

I like the sound of just about everything on the new Rob Zombie album. As a matter of fact, the last Rob Zombie album (Hellbilly Deluxe 2) was awesome except for the first sing "What?" which gave people a very wrong impression of the project. Now comes news that Zombie will be doing a "heavy duty" cover of an overdone classic. More after the jump.

Black Veil Brides Bring "Big Rock" Back [VIDEO]

Wes — Wed, 23 Jan 2013 12:26:58 +0000

FMX is proud to have been early supporters of Black Veil Brides. Not many radio stations spun Fallen Angels ,The Legacy and Rebel Love Song. The band was just starting to get some traction and tour when the lead singer got his nose broken on a drum riser. The injury was worse than most of that type and it resulted in him having trouble breathing and the cancellation of the tour. More after the jump.
