Last week I bought “ Get Thrashed: The Story Of Thrash Metal “. I had a problem with the DVD though. It was unbalanced or something. It wouldn’t play correctly in a standard DVD player, but would play fine in my Laptop. I took it back to exchange it for another copy today, but they...

Four years ago I was still in the military and was overseas. I was going through my daily ritual of checking email, news and such before heading to work when I heard them say something about someone being killed at a Damageplan concert. I didn’t catch the whole thing so I ran a search on Yahoo...

Seriously? You name your band Papsmear? Perhaps I’m alone here when I say that even though I’m a long time fan of metal, I never heard of a band called “Papsmear”. Not only that, but this part of how the band is described on Blabbermouth.net: “Hailing from Las Vegas the...

Image Source: Ebay  Got about a grand to blow? Me neither, but if you did you could bid on Dave Mustaine’s signature ESP DV8 Guitar with a Floyd Rose Tremolo. One of the last few DV8 in his arsenal  and this guitar was used on Blackmail The Universe world tour. The bid was up to $610...

After ten years of not going to any concerts I attended my first one back in March of this year. It was All that Remains and Chimaira co-headlining with Black Tide and Light This city. It was a good show, but this was my first experience seeing the now infamous “Karate Moshers“. After se...

It’s that time of the year again and the Grammy Nominees for Hard Rock/Metal categories are out and I hope you weren’t expecting anything great. The usual “Big Names” get thrown in the mix just because of their names and history. Nothing groundbreaking here in my opinion. Bes...

Holy crap!!! Ozzy Osbourne has lived long enough to turn 60 today. Although most of us hate Sharon, we can thank her for Ozzy actually living this long. If she hadn’t turned him around after the Sabbath fallout he would probably be dead by now. So wish the Prince Of Darkness a Birthday-Bloody-...

With Bloodbath’s new album comes new merch. One of those pieces of merch was a T-shirt that debuted around the 6th of November. The T-shirt titled “ Mock The Cross “, the name of the 4th track from The Fathomless Mastery. The T-shirt in questions features Christ upon the cross with...

Oh the regret he will have for saying something so foolish in the age of Lars Ulrich-bashing…or maybe not. Via the Chicago Tribune, he talked to Blender Magazine about his days of cocaine use and drinking. Here is what he said about cocaine and one of the things he missed about using the booge...

My point exactly and millions of metal fans couldn’t agree more. Dave talks about a lot of those bands, his own style and how he writes songs. How many bands out there sound like Megadeth clones? I can’t think of any. How many sing or play like Dave or can write a song like Dave Mustaine...
