More reasons I don't like Aerosmith time. It seems Steven Tyler will speak at a rally this month to show support for formation of a "Peace Department". The Peace Department will pass legislature and educate others on how to stop violence and opression in the world. Why didn't we think of this ages ago!! To stop world fighting we needed to just create ANOTHER…

Time to make Steve and Cody jealous. Just got my Winger tickets for the 2/7 show at Amos Southend in Charlotte. Headed for a heartbreak motherfuckers. Headed for a heartbreak. It's a Wednesday night show, so I'll try to have a full report…

We've recovered from the cold stuff and are back up to the 60's around here. Good for us, even though my friends in the midwest are still getting pounded with the cold weather. Interesting (and good) news from Rockstar Supernova's record and current tour. The self-titled record is not in Billboard's top 100 albums and the tour has been very, very poorly attended. Reality TV bullshit has no place in the halls of metal. No place.…

Sorry for the late post, but we had some administrative problems with Google/Blogger. Got 'em resolved so back to the METAL! For the obscure song of the week, I think we'll go with Hall Of The Mountain King by Savatage. I made mention of them in an earlier post, and downloaded the song into my MP3 player. It's very good, and is one that has probably been overlooked by our…

I hate to admit this, I really do. As an omnipotent heavy metal encyclopedia, I should know such things. You know that rocking Christmas diddy you hear around the holidays known as Christmas in Sarajevo? I always thought it was by the Trans Siberian Orchestra, because that's what I've always read and heard. Turns out the original was by none other than progressive NYC metal band Savatage. I also came to find out that they…

Kind of off the hair metal radar, but I got some tickets to a band I really like. Seven Mary three is coming to a little bar east of here in the middle of February and me and some buddies are going to check them out. I know this music was supposed…

Well, we got the weather as promised. It's not really bad, just cold and rainy but we did have enough snow to cover the ground. That's enough to make supermarket shelves barren here in the south. Now that we got the weather report out of the way, it's time to get to what we all came for. The Album O' The Week. We're going to stay with our earlier post theme of Bon Jovi for this AOTW. New Jersey was…

Time for a little
Bon Jovi news. Seems Jon Bon is having a good winter with a grammy nod for country collaboration of the year with "Who Says You Can't Go Home Again" and a People's Choice Award
win for the same song under the "favorite rock song" category. Now I hate country. The only thing I hate worse is award shows. We blasted this song several months back and…

Ozzy's stirring again and rumor has it that the new record will be more along the lines of
Bark at the Moon and
No More Tears. After 2001's dissapointing
Down To Earth, Ozzy wanted a return to the stripped down basics of just going into the studio…

As I sit here working, I have on RATT's Greatest Hits (8191) and I'll be damned if I don't think I like them better than Motley. That would put them pretty high on my all-time list, but I think they're deserving. Put them in a timeline: Out Of The Cellar, Invasion Of…

Hey ya'll. Got out of class late and got a late jump on the blog, but it's Album O' The Week time once again. With this one, we'll go with a sequel to a smash hit. This week's AOTW is Lies by GnR. I liked this one a whole lot, even if it doesn't have any of the smashing crunch of it's predecessor, Appetite For Destruction. Axl really started to show…
