Stone Sour New Album This Summer

With The Name "Hydrograd"

Stone Sour officialy confirm new album with the name "Hydrograd" due to this summer. Last week in NAMM band's frontman Corey Taylor told Rock Cellar magazine :

"We are doing everything old school. We're recording it live and then layering stuff on top of it. We are doing a song a day, and we've already done nine songs; we're about halfway done. And, yeah, it is incredible; it's the best stuff we've ever written.""

Also he said Matt Pinfield about the musical direction of the new STONE SOUR material:
"It is such a great amalgam of all of these different styles that we just absolutely love. It's got a little bit of the heavy, like we like to do, but it's also way more hard rock — way more rock 'n' roll and hard rock than heavy. I mean, there's even a little bit of punk in there. And there's an energy there that is gonna decimate and blow away a lot of stuff that comes out year. That's how excited I am."

Furthermore he added :

"We're [co-producing] ourselves with a good friends of ours named Jay Ruston, who has done a lot of work with a lot of different people. He has produced and mixed STEEL PANTHER, ANTHRAX [and] a bunch of different other people. He also mixed the two 'House Of Gold And Bones' albums that we put out, and he mixed the two covers EPs that STONE SOUR put out as well. So we have a great relationship with him, and he's somebody we really trust and we absolutely love to work with."

All we have to do now is wait for them to give us more details !

Opeth New Music Video

The Song Is Called Era


Opeth the lovely metal band from Sweden had just upload a new music video on their account for the song "Era"(Video Down Below). The video was directed by Markus Hofko featuring beautiful visual effects and wonderful cinematic shots. The song was taken by the bands latest album "Sorceress" which was released September 30, 2016.The song has a happy and really attractive rhythm and beautiful voice cover .

Mikael Åkerfeldt commented :


"I have to say our involvement in the making of the 'Era' video was so minimal we can't take credit either for or against its brilliance. "

"We did 3D scans of our bodies (clothed) in Munich during the last European tour. I remember everyone was extremely tired and probably slightly hungover. The director just placed us in a ice-cold room and then scanned us with something that looked like a flashing hairdryer. Done! We've done our part for the video. Next! "


"During the process of finishing the piece, it got clear to me that it really works with the song. That's something I was involved in actually, picking the song. It's extremely difficult. Which song to choose? How do I know what works best for this format? Well, I don't. I picked a song from the record that has a strong chorus. Slightly old-school way of thinking, I guess, but ultimately it didn't matter all that much to me. "


"The video is nice. I dig it. It's slightly on the pretentious side, but hey, works for me! And like I said, it really works with the overall vibe of the song. Lyrically and musically and definitely emotionally."

This is where Jonathan Davis comes to support all those charities that they are trying to protect those children . Frontman to release his "Freaks Do It Better" t-shirt, whose proceeds will partially be donated to both the American Foundation For Suicide Prevention and Stomp Out Bullying.The shirt is a part of the #BeDifferent brand, which aims to "help benefit those struggling with bullying and suicidal thoughts."

"As you know, bullying is something a lot of people have to deal with, and many times that type of harassment leads to suicide. Let's help shine a light on this crap, let's be weird, let's be different, but always be yourself. Let's see how many people we can get behind this movement."

The shirt can be ordered as a regular shirt or hoodie through Merchful, and will be available for roughly the next two weeks.

Band set to protest Donald Trump's inauguration at the Anti-Inaugural Ball on January 20.

This new got us suprized . Audioslave at up for a concert that is called the Anti-Inaugural Ball which is actually an anti-Trump concert with headliners Prophets of Rage . The concert will take place today (January 20) at the Teragram Ballroom in Los Angeles, CA, featuring Prophets of Rage as the headliner, as well as additional performances by Vic Mensa, Jackson Browne, Jack Black, and The Los Angeles Freedom Choir.



Prophets of Rage issued the following statement:

"The Anti-Inaugural Ball is a celebration of resistance. Resistance to racism. Resistance to sexism. Resistance to homophobia. Resistance to bullying. Resistance to environmental devastation. Resistance to fascism. Resistance to Donald Trump.

"We are staring down the barrel of a dystopian nightmare unless we act NOW, unless we fight back NOW. We intend to create 'No Trump Zones' across the country; in our homes, our schools, our places of work, and our concert stages. Bad Presidents make for great music. Join us as we get loud and stand together to defend our rights, our country, and our planet."



It seems like a fucking great idea . A concert like this is an action that had to be done in order for the US citizens to understand whats good for them . Bands like this is what punk and rock was about in the 90s and we always need band like this




New Incubus Album After 6 Years

Incubus Guitarist Confirms 

Incubus guitarist tweeted :


"If Not Now, When?": "Ahhhhhh so close! We finished recording and now mixing.... you'll hear new songs very soon!!"

Back in December 2015, frontman Brandon Boyd told Alternative Nation about the new record:

"Incubus is actively writing an album. We have so much material we are working with right now and we're in the process of finding the best of the best.

"There will be new Incubus music very soon. We actually had written almost another album worth of material before we left for the summer tour in the states. The plan was to come home, immediately record that material and have it out before the holidays.


"But we came home and started writing and then kept writing, and we started seeing ideas emerge that just eclipsed the other ones. So we decided to keep writing, and we’re sifting through tons of material, trying to create the best of the best."


Nothing else though .

Zakk Wylde New Music Video !

Zakk Did It Again


As you may already know Zakk Wylde is a member of Black Label Society but he have some solo albums too . His latest solo album was Book Of Shadows II which was released on April 8, 2016 . From this album Zakk made a video for the song "Sleeping Dogs"  featuring Corey Taylor back in August .So now Zakk made a second video for the song "Lost Prayer" also taken from his solo album(VIDEO DOWN BELOW) !

About his inspiration for this album he said on Billboard :

"When we're doing the heavy stuff, which we love doing during a normal BLACK LABEL mass [concert], we'll still do some mellow stuff in the middle of the show, whether we do 'In This River' and other things, but then it's back to the heavy stuff. Once you get your fill of that, then you're, like, 'I want to do some mellow stuff,' and then vice versa. Because I'm sure after we tour this record, it's going to be, like, 'Man, I can't wait to do the heavy stuff.' So I really dig doing it. As much as I love listening to ZEPPELIN doing 'Black Dog', I also love them doing 'Going To California'."


Not much to say here enjoy the video !


In Case you Missed the Sleeping Dogs !!

New Queen Of The Stone Age Album This Year

Mastodon's Troy Sanders Confirms


While being interview by Rolling Stone magazine Troy Sanders was asked about Gone Is Gone supergroup. The supergroup consist of Troy Sanders (Mastodon) Troy Van Leeuwen (QOTSA) Tony Hajjar (Gone is Gone) And Mike Zarin . So Τroy revealed that actually the other Queens Of the Stone Age are on the studio too . 

He told Rolling Stone: "I like to think none of us needs [Gone Is Gone], but we all really want this band. When that's the mentality, this is special to the four of us. Otherwise, we wouldn't dedicate the first week of 2017 to working on this band."

"For example, Queens of the Stone Age, Mastodon and At the Drive-In have all been recording, and we all have new records coming out this year.

"We've all been extremely busy writing and recording, and we're about to get super busy touring the world. So I believe we're all fulfilled to a certain degree with all we have going on. That sets a special tone for a very special thing we all share. This band doesn't bring us fame or money, but it brings us a different sense of fulfillment and energy that we all give each other."

New QOTSA album ???? This are some awesome news cause I  love them literally and lets hope the new album to be even greater than ...Like Clockwork!!Also As for Gone Is Gone, the boys are officially streaming their full-length debut "Echolocation," released on January 6 via Rise Records. You can give it a spin below.



I would like to thank Rolling Stone magazine for the infos and also Thanks For Reading And Please Like My Facebook Page! :-)

Metal Hammer Has Been Saved

Good News For Us But Especially For The Employees

Metal Hammer Logo
Great new for the Metal Hammer employees as they are back on work. If you are a metalhead you sure will know Metal Hammer the best magazine about metal and the oldest one I think . So the story with the magazine goes like this . In 2013 the former Metal Hammer Future Publishing has sold all the magazines, domain names, events, radio license and websites of Classic Rock, Metal Hammer, Prog, The Blues and The Golden Gods to Team Rock for £10.2 million .But this December Team Rock declared bankrupted as a result around 70 employees was fired and they haven't paid at all days before Christmas. But now future has come to the rescue . The company a few days ago bought the Metal Hammer again and has rehired all of its employees. But the thing that makes this story even greater is for how much the company bought it back . Its £800,000 !
That means that Future Publishing got a profit of £9.4 million ,that's insane! But the thing that really matters is that 70 people didn't lose their jobs ! I hope Metal Hammer to keep up the great work that they provide us and nothing like this happen ever again!

Cliff Burton Wasnt Really Into Metal

Lars Ulrich Reveals

If you are into Metallica long enough you sure have checked their first albums like Kill em All and Ride the Lightning . So Cliff Burton was bassist of this era.for the band until his tragic death in September 27 1986 when the tour bus went out of the road and fell on top of him. Over the years Metallica members have shared a lot of memories and facts about his life and now Lars does share some more facts . He share on a recent episode Talk Is Jericho :


“If you listen to the difference between Kill ‘Em All and Ride the Lightning, obviously there was this huge … the pallet was expanded. We’ve never experimented with harmonies, melodies … If you take ‘For Whom the Bell Tolls,’ that melody, ‘Fade to Black,’ the super-melodic outro—that was all stuff [Cliff] brought to the table. The intro of ‘Fight Fire with Fire,’ that was more or less his. There was this whole thing that came from the classical upbringing that he had."

“He studied classical music and he could sit down and talk with you about Bach and Beethoven and Tchaikovsky. In 1981, James Hetfield and I didn’t sit there and talk a lot about classical endeavors, you know? [Laughs] We had a little more narrow-minded outlook. So Cliff—he loved the energy, he loved the aggression, but I don’t think he was a big fan of like, Iron Maiden. I remember early on when we started traveling on the tour bus, I’d put on some Maiden or something—he didn’t get out of his seat to start banging up and down. [Chuckles]"

“I’d play some Maiden, some Diamond Head, and then he’d put on [ZZ Top’s] Rio Grande Mud or Degüello or some Yes album I’d never heard of, and I was like, ‘Huh?’ He’d sit there and fly the flag for Jethro Tull or … one band he loved was the Police, he’d always play the Police."

“His whole net was just really wide and really unencumbered by how it was supposed to be if you were in a metal band, which obviously James and I hadn’t quite graduated to at that time."

“Cliff, hands down, was the one that was the most musically varied at that time. Anybody that sits and goes, ‘Cliff wouldn’t have done this, Cliff wouldn’t have done that,’ it’s just a nonstarter of a conversation, because we don’t know. If you take like, ‘Enter Sandman,’ it’s a great riff and we tried a lot of stuff with [Jason] Newsted and it was just sort of like, just thumping straight eighth notes—it just works for the song! I don’t think Cliff would have said, ‘Fuck you, I’m not doing that!’ His thing was just what’s best for the song.”

Its really common for some musicians to write music that's not relevant to what they hear . So Cliff is not an exception. So the next time someone tells you that he down listen to metal don't look down on him and respect his opinion .

Good News For Tony Iommy's Health

Thats Some Good News For His Family

Last month we learnt that Black Sabbath's guitarist Tony Iommi  was diagnosed with a lump in his throat and all the rock and metal community has been sad because we thought 2016 was going to take another legend away . But this time we all got lucky. He got a surgery and the doctors find out that the lump was not cancerous .

He tells Planet Rock (via Blabbermouth):

"Well, I had the treatment when I got back from [touring] South America. I went in for the throat [operation]."

"They found a lump at the back of my sinus, in the throat, and we had to have it checked in case it may have been cancerous. But it turns out it wasn't, which I found out Christmas Day, which is brilliant. So far [I'm all good]. I daren't say that. I'll probably fall down the stairs now.
"

That's really good news especially for his family and for us . We hope 2017 wont take any more great rockstar !
