As both father and mother to our precious dinosaur Gor Gor, my hearts break to see what he has become: a crack-addicted truck-stop lizard-of-the-evening. We didn't raise him to hustle his cloaca up and down the street. It is time for some tough love! Come watch as GWAR lays a whoopin' on his giant red ass on the 'Gor Gor Must Die Tour' with Midnight, Mac Sabbath, X-Cops, and Atomic Rule.
"My world just kind of bottomed out from under me. This thing that I have been dedicated to with complete focus and drive and attention and love... to having nothing but questions."
Dwarves have announced their 17th studio album, titled J ENKEM, set to arrive June 6th via Greedy Records. In support of the upcoming record, the veteran punk band will embark on US tours in the spring and fall.
Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen's acting chops are on display in the trailer for the upcoming grindhouse comedic-horror film Jesus Cop. The industrial legend is part of an ensemble case that also includes Green Jellÿ singer Bill Manspeaker and Jackass star Bam Margera (as the voice of God). The movie, which stars Alex Petrovich as the title character, is described on its official website as follows:
It was always more rough and violent, says Destruction vocalist and bassist Marcel Schmier Schirmer of Germany's initial approach to thrash. We never tried to be the best musicians we tried to write songs that punched hard. On English heavy metal albums, it was always the first song on the album and the first song on the second side of the vinyl that were the fastest tracks.
Take a visionary duo inspired by hip-hop and renowned for ceding control to their software and performing in total darkness, who have inspired haywire mutations of electronic music that seek to dissolve any remaining boundaries between our emotions and the machines we use to express them. Boil it down to just one musician and an acoustic guitar to reveal the durability of this cryptic, futuristic sound.
I didn't hear Deceptacon by Le Tigre when it was released in 1999, but I was at a friend's house while he was out, going through all his records, and played it by random. It shook me to the core and I think I played it 100 times in on repeat, dancing around, completely excited. I had never heard something so angry and feminine.
I had a huge hernia, and for it to be repaired, I had to endure a 6 inch incision in my groin. This unfortunately was not keyhole surgery. I have a very weak abdominal wall, which at being 57 yrs old this year, is not going to improve. If I continue to perform and shout/scream as I do with Godflesh, then I am at high risk for more hernias, and blowing out my abdominal wall entirely.
After he woke up on Sunday, Feb. 1, Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine got out of bed and went into the kitchen of his home in Franklin, Tenn. He downed a variety of health and wellness liquids and supplements, then picked up his phone and noticed a text from his son, Justis, who works at the band's management company. It read, "We're number one!!!"
Green-House will release new album Hinterlands on March 20. The Los Angeles duo of Olive Ardizoni and Michael Flanagan has left their longtime home of Leaving to sign with Ghostly for the follow-up to A Host for All Kinds of Life. Listen to a new song from the record, "Farewell, Little Island," below, and scroll down for the album art.
It's impossible to quantify the emotional landscape of a song-there's no judgment more subjective-but to my ear, "Ceremony" captures the drama of an unforgettable moment that feels like it's going to change your life forever, one where everything that's been is about to meet the future, and you can feel the unnamable tension of possibility swelling until it's about to burst.
My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way has lent his voice to the new single by one of our favorite current death metal bands, Frozen Soul. It's called 'No Place of Warmth' and it's off the band's just-announced new album of the same name, which arrives May 8 via Century Media. The song sounds like classic Frozen Soul, and when Gerard comes in, he shows off a vicious scream that's very different from what he does in MCR.
