Posted by Chris Harris on September 29, 2010 in In the Studio, New Records, News, Tour Dates

Isn’t that some shit? Man, so I just got back to the office after a long day out on assignment…namely, hanging out with the girls from Eyes Set To Kill. Oh yeah. Me. So, now that I am back, it’s posting time, and this was perhaps the most interesting bit of news I received in Read More

Now that that lawsuit between Tony and Ozzy’s been settled, there’s a new Black Sabbath box set coming, and it’s going to focus on those formative years the band had with the self-proclaimed Prince of Darkness Ozzy Osbourne.

Memorain Ink Deal With Pulverised Records

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

Thrash metal supergroup Memorain have signed with Pulverised Records, and the band recently finished working on their fourth record, Evolution. I went to their MySpace page and they had no pictures of the band — no group shots. So I went with a picture of a hot chick instead. Hope you don’t mind. Memorian was Read More

Infectious Grooves Book First Show In Ten Years

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

I was at Space Camp when I first learned about Infectious Grooves. In Alabama. No, I wasn’t a rich kid growing up; my cousin won a contest at a local mall opening years and years ago, and the prize was a trip for you and your friend to Space Camp. So my cousin took me. Read More

Band I Don’t Care About Has Fight, Leaves Tour

Posted by Chris Harris on September 28, 2010 in Huh?, News

After The Burial — a band I personally don’t give a flaming bag of dog shit about — have dropped off of their tour with Bleeding Through because they probably had a fist fight. That was the anonymous tip Lambgoat ran with this afternoon — that the band had it out after a show in Read More

Oceano Debut New Track, Announce Tour

Posted by Chris Harris on September 28, 2010 in New Records, News, Tour Dates

So, I listened to this new Oceano track called “Weaponized,” and jumping Jesus on a pogo stick — it’s fucking gross. And I mean that in the best way. It’s just filthy, well-executed, sludgy death metal and dude’s voice sounds like Satan’s stomach when Satan get’s extra hungry. You may not like it, but that’s Read More

Did Five Finger Death Punch Sign To Roadrunner?

Posted by Chris Harris on September 28, 2010 in Huh?, New Records, News, Poop

I only ask because they’re doing the whole deluxe re-issue thing with their debut LP The Way of the Fist. The “Iron Fist” edition of the record will be available starting November 23. I think Roadrunner should sue Five Finger, or at least give them a finger of their own. That’s totally their move…to re-release Read More

Posted by Chris Harris on September 28, 2010 in News, Shamelessness

This, according to a report from The Smoking Gun. That’s $200,000 more a night than future felon and current tween heartthrob Justin Beiber. The site unearthed a list of the biggest earning summer tours, and Kiss occupy the #2 spot with half-a-million a night. Those dorks in Rascal Flatts are #1 with more than $700,000 Read More

Bon Jovi, Alice Cooper Up For Rock Hall Consideration

Posted by Chris Harris on September 28, 2010 in News, Shamelessness

This doesn’t mean the pride of New Jersey or the original shock rocker will definitely be named to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but chances are good they could, joining heavy acts like Metallica and Black Sabbath in the prestigious hall. Even if Bon Jovi don’t make it in, they’re surely members in Read More
