Former Bury Your Dead Guitarist On Trial

Posted by Chris Harris on March 31, 2012 in News

Kudos to Lambgoat for catching this one. I guess someone must have Google news alerts set up for lameness. Former Bury Your Dead guitarist Eric Ellis is currently on trial in Florida for being an associate in a “fledgling” Jacksonville gang; that’s fucking hilarious. Or is it pathetic? I vote “Both.” The 27-year-old Ellis was Read More

Holy. Fucking. Shit. Anytime the Deftones book studio time is reason to celebrate. And that’s just what I will do. I will celebrate with a drink or few, sex, and sleep. That’s how my night’s going to play out, kids. Newly-married Chino Moreno, the band’s frontman, tells a Chilean Web site that the Deftones have Read More

Posted by Chris Harris on March 31, 2012 in Departures, News

That’s right, cowpokes. California melodic blackened death metal band Dawn of Ashes is down two men. Othuum and Volkar Kael have parted ways with the band, and the split was characterized as “amicable,” so, that’s cool. “With the new change in Dawn of Ashes and Kristof Bathory making Dawn of Ashes as his project,” reads Read More

Gwar Frontman Says What Has Already Been Said

Posted by Chris Harris on March 30, 2012 in Huh?, News

Oderus Urungus — lead singer of Gwar — has slammed Dave Mustaine for his inane political views, which is something I’ve been doing for a while now.

Posted by Chris Harris on March 30, 2012 in New Records, News

Say what? Baroness vocalist and guitarist John Baizley spoke with AltPress.com, for some fucking reason (because since when do they care about stuff that isn’t pussy-whipped punk dreck), and said that’s it — the band’s no longer down with the filthy shit. When asked about their forthcoming LPs “biggest curveball,” dude responded, “It’s easy for Read More

I wish I lived in California sometimes. The other day, I said that I’d be down to help with gang vocals on the new Strife record. This seemingly caught the eye of the band. Guitarist Andrew Kline got in touch and said I should come on down to help, and I was psyched. But then, Read More

Oceano Booking Shows Despite Break Up?

Posted by Chris Harris on March 30, 2012 in Huh?, News

Oceano, don’t go away bad…Oceano, just go away. ThePRP claims that Oceano’s farewell appearance at this year’s “New England Metal And Hardcore Festival” will not be their last. The site for the fest no longer mentions that it will be Oceano’s last show, as it had when the NEM&HF was first announced. There is seemingly Read More
