I was not old enough for Black Sabbath's "Paranoid". I would have been about 8 when it came out. I can't remember how I got turned onto this harbinger of all things metal to come, but it still stands the test of time. More after the jump.
The latest from Device as leaked! Are you ready for David Draiman's latest project? It's more of an industrial offering but it definitely will make and Disturbed fan happy. I personally think it rocks and can't wait until we get sent a copy (we need one that is "f word" free). Check it out after the jump.
Avatar's back, and I don't know the whole story. There, I admitted it. I can tell you that we have a new song we're playing on FMX called "Smells Like A Freakshow". When I went to the net I was only able to find you a different version of the song. More after the jump.
Fresh off a "victory" very the evil Men's Warehouse (personally I like the place), Dave Mustaine is back on Twitter exposes the horrors of another modern day conspiracy theory. This time, science pretty much says "shove it" Dave. More after the jump.
I guess I'm going to get myself in trouble again. I suppose I'm the only one who remembers that near the end of the 80's, metal went into the crapper. Not only was it taken over by guys with too much makeup, it was filled with countless boring shredding for no good reason except to show off the guitarists skills. Now, Dragonforce is going to go one better by not only showing off some pointless soloing, but by doing it for a credit card company.
I always listen to the two or three songs that are stickered on the front of a c.d. first. It's not something you should necessarily do, but it tells me the record companies 'intentions' when it comes to releasing singles from that album. Rather than open my shiny new c.d., on a whim I went to YouTube. There I found one of the songs dubbed into the system from a vinyl source and it sounds really good. More after the jump.
The "Real Five" is back with a look at one of our Birthday Bash Bands. We're going to look at the five most played songs from "Stone Sour" (with videos) after the jump.
The "Prince Of Darkness" Ozzy Osbourne celebrates his birthday today. Ozzy is 64 years old. The pride of Birmingham England is currently preparing a Black Sabbath album and some live tour dates. More after the jump.
We've been talking about the new Soundgarden for a while, mostly because it was supposed to drop last week, before it was pushed up to Thursday of this week. The arrival of a new Avenged Sevenfold caught us a bit by surprise. More after this jump.
In This Moment & Hellyeah have confirmed show at Jake’s. Two of the hottest acts on the road will be appearing on separate nights in Jake’s Backroom. We’ve even managed to hook you up with some “low-dough” action for In this Moment. More after the jump.
First off, I guess I have to say that the following video contains profanity. Now that we're all pretending that profanity is not part of our daily lives, let's move on. This is ten minutes of cool video from Five Finger Death Punch. More after the jump.
I saw a Loudwire list of the top ten Pantera songs and it was off, to say the least. Then I realized, those Yankee baby-bottle suckers don't know what's up with the official Metal Band of Texas. More after the jump.
