We've got Ian Moore tonight and Black Stone Cherry coming up Wednesday, but we're pulling out the big guns for Memorial Day weekend. We're officially starting the giveaway for Five Finger Death Punch.
We've got four days of badass rock for you this Memorial Day Weekend. FMX will once again present the indisputable chart of all charts starting this Friday. This isn't your daddy's list though. This year we're presenting a list based on just the last fifteen years. More after the jump.
Did you know that probably less than half of the rock stations out there played "The Promise" by "In This Moment"? Some people just refuse to give the band props, even when they deliver big time. Now whether you're a fan of the song or not, there's no denying it was huge around these parts. I've seen at least three girls post tattoos that say "My promise is that I'll hurt you" (the chorus from the song). Yeah, a there aren't many songs that inspire tattoos. More, including a cool acoustic version of "The Promise" after the break.
Our photog has literally hundreds of pix to go through before we post the definitive wrap up to an unbelievable weekend. In the meantime, dozens of folks posted cool little clips from the shows on YouTube. I've hunted down some of my favorites for you.
The loss of vocalist Ronnie James Dio to stomach cancer in 2010 still stings the hearts of metal fans, including that of the mighty Metallica. The band plans to be involved in the upcoming Dio ribute album, which will also feature Anthrax, Rob Halford and more. It turns out that Metallica even contacted Dio’s widow directly in order to get the ball rolling on their participation.
Well we get started today. We finish around 1 a.m. Sunday morning. What else do you need to know? Well, you regular concert goers are pretty hooked up, but since these concerts are both so big, we're getting a lot of questions from people who rarely attend shows.
The newly released video for the "lost" Pantera track is here! Trust us, as old skool Pantera fans neither the song, nor the video disappoint. The title "Piss" is really just an abbreviation for "Piss in the wind". More after the jump.
Shadows Fall‘s much anticipated new album ‘Fire From the Sky’ is set to drop on May 15, and Loudwire has an exclusive behind-the-scenes video of the band in the studio with producer Adam Dutkiewicz.
A couple of days ago, we told you rumor had it that the 2012 Lollapalooza lineup would feature Red Hot Chili Peppers and Black Sabbath — and now we can confirm that the rumors were right on the money. This year’s list of acts has been unveiled, and it’s a doozy.
Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine has proven to be the most controversial figure in metal today, with his array of conservative and religious rants seemingly coming out of left field. Mustaine’s critics are many — one of whom is Deicide frontman Glen Benton.
Looks like Ozzy Osbourne is finally “cool enough” to play at Lollapalooza, seeing as Black Sabbath have been leaked as one of the headliners of the Chicago festival. Also reported to play the 2012 bill are Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Black Keys, Jack White, Die Antwoord, At the Drive-In and many more.
