I haven’t seen Korn live in a while, but for a while there, they had a touring guitarist dude who they used to have play off-stage. They didn’t want him being seen, I guess. Because, they said, Korn wasn’t about to replace that dude who found God. But when Korn perfom on “Lopez Tonight” on Read More
And who will the show benefit? Some organization based in Philadelphia, you would think, right? No. They’re playing a show in Philly to benefit an organization in Louisiana. Why would people in Philadelphia care about helping people in Louisiana? That’s like doing a benefit in India for people in Africa. I kid, I kid. The Read More
Two of my favorite bands have always been Porcupine Tree and Opeth. Two very different sounding bands that are interconnected — frontmen Steven Wilson and Mikael Akerfeldt have something of a mutual admiration for one another, and Wilson was even called on to produce three of Opeth’s best records, 2001’s Blackwater Park, 2002’s Deliverance, and Read More
I’ve gotta hand it to him: I wholeheartedly agree with Duff McKagan’s statement that he did not know who Anvil were before last year and “that movie” came out. All of a sudden, Anvil were this fucking huge deal (they did have a good publicist) and I feel like everyone was afraid to admit that Read More
Why, Bobby? Why do you continue to deny us the only reunion we even care about…after Faith No More got back together? Come on. It’s easy money, Rob. Just pull the fucking trigger already. We’ll even let Pink Floyd open for you, although it should really be the other way around. Your kids will never Read More
Literally and figuratively. Of course, Mike — who is in a little band called Dream Theater — played the drum tracks Avenged Sevenfold had demoed with Jimmy “The Rev” Sullivan before he died of a drug overdose back in December and is touring with the band the next couple of months as part of Uproar.

Oh good. I’m glad Kat Von D’s fucking Sandra Bullock’s ex-fucktard Jesse James is getting the phones ringing again at Nikki Sixx’s office. His secretary was starting to feel bad about collecting all those paychecks for doing virtually nothing all day. I mean, who the fuck is calling Nikki Sixx? Who knew that dude had Read More
I can’t wait to not go to see this tour! I’m sorry, folks. Atreyu are not as good as everyone claims they are. This band is like the U2 of metal — everyone kisses their ass, and I just don’t get it. They’re named after the kid from The Neverending Story. What — Falkor was Read More
So, I know several people who attended Saturday’s Ozzfest in Hartford, and I bet you every single one of them were mostly there for Goatwhore. And Motley Crue, because…well, it’s the Crue, dude. But Goatwhore had to bail on the Hartford date, due to a “medical emergency” involving bassist James Harvey. In a Twitter post, Read More
You know how sometimes, movie companies won’t preview a new movie because its awful — just a huge pile of shit? Yeah, well, that’s because they don’t want bad reviews getting out there. They want people to still go see the film based solely on the trailer, because they still want to make money. Yeah, Read More
