New Devin Townsend Discs Due In March

Posted by Chris Harris on July 30, 2010 in New Records, News, Rad

I love Devin Townsend with a passion not seen by many. Everything the man releases is progressive, heavy as hell, and brilliant — the kind of records you can listen to from front to back. Last year’s Addicted was my pick for album of the year; if you haven’t heard it yet, you’re really depriving Read More

From First To Last Are Done…You Can Smile Now

Posted by Chris Harris on July 30, 2010 in News, Rad, Sarcasm

From First to Last — who, over the years, have lost their frontman Sonny Moore and featured Limp Bizkit’s Wes Borland on guitars — have gone on an indefinite hiatus. I was wondering what it was going to take to kill this group off. These stale pussy farts have always sucked and unfortunately, break-ups like Read More

Metalocalypse Video Game Shelved Indefinitely

Posted by Chris Harris on July 30, 2010 in Huh?, News

How awesome would this video game have been? A title based on Adult Swim’s gore-laden cartoon series about Dethklok, the world’s most important death metal band — what could be better? Well, according to reports, the game wasn’t turning out so awesome. Metalocalypse: The Dethgame was being developed for the XBox live arcade and the Read More

Scars On Broadway Are “Fucking” Awful

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in Huh?, New Records, News, Pervoscope

When System of a Down broke up (because that’s what happened…hiatus my balls!), I was sad because I knew the rock world had lost a mammoth. I was also rather aware that no SOAD side project would ever live up to SOAD itself, and thus, System and its various components were no longer concerns of Read More

Dekadent Like The Vaginas Of Winged Half-Beasts

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in New Records, News, Pervoscope, Rad

And dude, I must admit — so do I. After the jump, we have the uncensored version of the album cover for Dekadent’s forthcoming LP, Venera: Trial and Tribulation, and there’s vag on it. It’s a pretty vag, at that. Nice and compact. Reminds me of a certain someone from my past. But, I digress. Read More

The Sword: The Gun Shy Interview

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in Gun Shy Interview, New Records, News, Rad

Trivett Wingo is an awesome dude. He’s dangerously candid when he speaks, but that means he’s also brutally funny. The drummer for Austin, Texas-prog metal outfit The Sword (who I have been behind since the beginning, mind you) tells it like it is, with vivid descriptions and detail. Take his answer to one of my Read More

Slipknot Will Not Replace Paul Gray, Drummer Says

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in Huh?, New Records, News

Wait…I’m confused. Not even two weeks ago, Joey Jordison — Slipknot’s lilliputian drummer — said that, despite the recent overdose death of bassist Paul Gray, there would one day be a new Slipknot record. Sure, dude never speculated on when the disc would be ready for mass consumption, but he never mentioned that they don’t Read More

Sully Erna To Crash Into The Charts With Solo LP

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in Huh?, New Records, News, Shamelessness

Godsmack’s diminutive frontman Sully Erna is doing what I’ve wished for years he’d never do: Make more music. He insists on trying to be relevant and despite my best efforts (yes, I was the one who cut the breaks on his Hummer back in ’07), he continues to churn out audio puke that people in Read More

Fuck You, Ozzy: Bruce Is The Man

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in Huh?, News, Shamelessness

So, I was on Blabbermouth and spotted this piece about Ozzy Osbourne calling Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden a cunt. That’s a strong word, Ozzy. I just think Ozzy’s ego has reached maximum expansion. If I could only listen to Maiden or Ozzy solo records the rest of my life, guess what? I’m all over Read More

Max Cavalera Thinks Fred Durst Is A Jackass

Posted by Chris Harris on July 29, 2010 in News, Rad

Weird — me and Max actually have something in common! So, Max Cavalera — the esteemed frontman for Soulfly who is perhaps better known for his work with Sepultura — was interviewed recently by PyroMusic (courtesy of Bravewords) and he says he’d think twice about using Limp Bizkit’s Fred Durst on an album again, because…well, Read More
