OK. I think I can say this pretty much on the behalf of everyone who ever loves or loved Glassjaw — even for a week: What’s up, guys? Glad you’re back in the fray and all, but these singles…it’s like giving every starving kid in India a single guava. We’re fucking starving, guys — don’t Read More
If you missed Ozzy Osbourne on this summer’s Ozzfest and you’ve never seen him live on any previous Ozzfest or on any of his numerous tours, then maybe you might want to change all of that this fall. Ozzy Osbourne will be touring North America starting November 12 in Victoria, British Columbia, and who knows? Read More
A man I have a ton of respect for — drummer Vinnie Paul — has said something terrible about a band I have a ton of respect for — the late, great Pantera. He compared his old band to his new band. That new band, of course, is HellYeah — Vinnie’s band with some of Read More
What the hell is going on, Vince? Seriously, dude. First, your soccer-mom-lookin’ ass gets grabbed for D.U.I. in Vegas, even though — back in the ‘80s — you killed one of your friends because you drove after having a few hundred too many. Now, you’re allegedly manhandling women in elevators? Lock yourself in your house, Read More
Dude, I truly hope those dudes don’t get all the girls. I mean, look at ‘em…they look like arsonists, I’ll give them that — but romeos? They’re in a band…so, yeah, they probably do get broads. But if they weren’t in a touring band with a long, intentionally-weird name, they’d probably be getting no girls. Read More
At least as my top Christmas album of ever. I’ll admit it: I happen to like Christmas albums and there have been some classics. Even a few metal albums have tackled holiday tunes. I also happen to love this Miami Bass Christmas disc, if only for the booty-bouncing broad on the cover, with a Santa Read More
Well, that was fucking fast. Five months after becoming Jane’s Addiction’s bassist, Duff McKagan — the man from Guns N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver — has apparently caught what Eric Avery’s got. He’s fucking sick of dealing with Jane’s Addiction. “We wanted to thank Duff for helping us write songs for our new record,” the Read More
You can always count on former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach to stick up for Axl Rose when the media backlash hops the rails and once again targets the Guns N’ Roses frontman. And we have, since Axl’s been being all Axl lately and firing people and showing up late for shows. Sebastian was on Read More
I must admit — for the most part, this blog is a compilation of whatever comes to mind when I first see, hear, or read something. If I’m apathetic about some lame-ass band going out on tour with an even lamer-assed band, I just get to the goods as quickly as I can. In the Read More
Guns N’ Roses are notorious for being late for everything. Axl Rose was actually born a week after his mother first went into labor. True story. I have seen Guns N’ Roses a handful of times, and they’ve gone on late every single time. The organizers of the Reading and Leeds Festivals this weekend in Read More
