Jonathan Davis made a video of him recording the vocals to the new track “Sanctuary,” originally titled “November” in a hotel room in the Philippines. Definitely not your typical recording setting. It is however proof that
If I may refresh your memories, “Charm City Devils” were the band that won the national contest to open Motley Crue’s “Carnival Of Sins” tour. Now they’ve covered one of the most unlikeliest of songs ever. You may know the song from the movie “Brother Where Art Thou” (sung by the fictitious “Soggy Bottom Boys”). The song was originally written in 1913. More after the jump.
Eight-year-old guitarist Zoe Thomson tears through a high-speed heavy metal song and shows off some blazing fretwork that would put most adult guitarists to shame.
I know that music and fashion go hand in hand. Now I’m no fashionista by any means, but are you cool with Green Day dressing and posing for an entire ad for fashion designer John Varvatos?
I understand why Bob Dylan was huge in his day. I’ve never been a fan, but that’s why I’m hoping some of these upcoming covers for the big tribute album can turn me around. The tribute, called “Chimes Of Freedom: The Songs Of Bob Dylan” include covers from some big names like Rise Against, My Chemical Romance, Cage The Elephant, the Silversun Pickups, Eddie Vedder, Tom Morello, Adele, and the Airborne Toxic Event. 75 of Dylan’s songs in all. I d
Evidently Walmart has a program that plays in it’s stores called “Soundcheck”. I personally have never stood still long enough to notice that anything was going on. As part of this program Korn plays live and does some short interview segments. It’s filmed really well, so what the heck, it’s worth a look. More after the jump.

It won a Golden Globe and is up for an Oscar too. Trent Reznor did the music for the movie, and he and Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs redid Zeppelin’s song. This is the opening sequence to the movie, basically where the titles and credits r
TMZ is reporting that Korn Bassist “Fieldy” has added some new ink to his back piece. Fieldy, who is almost completely covered in ink, added a “sacred heart” design to his back. Despite the fact that he doesn’t really seem to have a problem getting inked, this one had to smart. More details after the jump.
Dave Grohl is reportedly working on a documentary about Sound City Studios. Haven’t heard of it? I can guarantee you heard the sounds that have come out of there. Just a few of the artists to lay tracks down there include Metallica, Johnny Cash, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, Neil Young, Rage Against The Machine, Nine Inch Nails, REO Speedwagon, Willie Nelson, Eric Clapton and many more. The ico
A website called SkullsNBones.com got a really early preview of the new HellYeah. Most of these tracks are unmastered and unmixed, but still a really early listen to the new jams from the boys. They say they’re going deeper and darker on
Right when metal was switching to what today is called “hair metal” my career took a turn. I took a job doing a morning show at a “classic rock” station in Austin. I did not enjoy the music there (and I think that was apparent) and I did not enjoy what was happening elsewhere. I guess it was kind of like the “lesser of two evils” to be thrust into the world of classic rock and be able to avoid the Poisons and Trixters of the world. I DID get to enjoy a few of the early bands like Ratt and Quiet Riot. More after the jump.
