Ooh, it's another scoop.  I found this with a mere 301 hits and it's going to blow up quick.  Rob Zombie has released the first video from the album "Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor" .  Check it out after the jump.

Have you ever watched a rock star make out with a totally hot girl and thought "wow, nice work if you can get it"? Well this time you're going to be double jealous. The girl the singer from Trapt is making out with in this video is his WIFE. Yes, she's wifey and he put a ring on it. More after the jump.

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. More after the jump.

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.  Get "The Real Five" from Three Days Grace after the jump.

Volume 3 was the album that broke it wide open for the masked men. The band successfully continued its transition from the scream club to regular vocals. Just that small step in the direction of melody led to Volume 3: The Subliminal Versus becoming a classic. More after the jump.

One short night after an epic Lubbock concert, the video has dropped for the new Volbeat song.  The track is "Cape Of Our Hero".  It another very inspiring clip from a a great band.  Check it out after the jump.

After a brief stint with Dave Navarro in the band, John Frusciante returned to the Red Hot Chili Peppers to make their masterpiece. "Californication" is the Peps top seller and the template for the band that we know today.  More after the jump.

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 jump.

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.

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.

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.

Wow, this is a lot to take in and a true festival and celebration of rock.  When the real festivals took off it was all about people being exposed to all different types of music.  This festival covers everything from Metal to Grunge to Classic and more. This is a chance to enjoy a lot for very, very little.
