Some of the artists on the next edition of Guitar Hero are getting leaked. Guitar Hero IV comes out this fall. Drum roll!!! And four of the bands are.....
Sublime, Van Halen, The Eagles and Linkin Park.
They should totally pick Wrong Way from Sublime, because little kids need songs about hookers, and Everybody Wants Some! by Van Halen. I'd buy it!
Where were you on May 8th???? If you weren't at The Roxy then whatever you were doing sucked. Yeah I wasn't there either.
Camp Freddy, the cover band made of Dave Navarro, Matt Sorum and some ex-Cult and Jane's Addiction members, had just a few guests on stage with them. Let's see: Slash and Duff of Guns n' Roses, Motley Crue'sTommy Lee, Chester Bennington of Linkin Park, Sex Pistols'Steve Jones and Paul Cook, Jerry Cantrell of Alice n' Chains, andMark Mcgrathwho MC'd the show and hopped up to sing a few.
Dave Grohl rules! Not only because he drummed in probably the most influential band of the last 18 years, Nirvana in case you're 12 or retarded, and then started the Foo Fighters, but because of this open letter he just wrote to Metallica:
"Dear Metallica,
"Hey, it's Dave! Remember me? Yeah, I'm the guy that's been listening to your band faithfully since 1983. I bought your first album 'Kill 'Em All' from a mailorder catalogue called Under The Rainbow, I think. Actually I can't remember. It was 1983 for Christsakes! But that album changed my life and I've been listening to your albums ever since (even 'St Anger'!).
"I can't wait to hear the new shit, and no matter what you guys do I'll always be first one at the shop waiting to hear it. I'm sure you'll come out and blow everybody's fuckin' minds, because you're fuckin' METALLICA!
"Good luck. And don't release it until it's kick-ass.
Buckcherry is back in the studio. Keith took to the bands official blog today to write about it:
Today is the day. We started writing and rehearsing for these recording sessions a few months back and now the time has come to put this baby on wax! we have so many songs now, the biggest challenge is what NOT to include on the record. A quality problem. True to form we work quick, afterall we did "15" in fifteen days. We're shooting for the same vibe with this one, but maybe adding an extra week. Will we call it "21"? Ummm... No.
But, part of what made that record so much fun is we just captured the raw essence of the band without over-thinking the recording process, and that's exactly how we're making this one.
Stay tuned for more updates as I'll be taking the time to let you know what's going on here and how everything is progressing a little more frequently than before. We can't wait for everyone to hear this new music. Keep the faith and stay tuned!
Keith
Stoked! I bought '15' the day it came out, in like '06 or whenever. No. More. 15. Ahh!
ps that pic was taken by somebody on my birthday at The Whiskey like two years ago. Buckcherry at The Whiskey on your birthday - Pretty cool huh??!?!
This is totally crazy. Every day there's another song offered for free online, or heisted by pirates and given free online. ARRRRRRRR!!!!!
The latest music leaked comes from Weezer. The first single off that album, Pork and Beans, is great. now you get Troublemaker. Courtesy of some lawless dirty scoundrels on the internet, and us fine gents:
