Probably one of the greatest up and coming drummer’s of this music age just passed away today, his name is Jimmy Sullivan AKA “The Rev” and he was the drummer for Avenged Sevenfold.  Even if you were a fan or hater of the band, you have to appreciate how good this man was at rocking [...]

I used to jam out to this all the time when this CD first came out and it’s all about Pirate’s pillaging and making people walk the plank.  It’s an emo/punk song but it’s pretty badass and a great song to listen to pre surf sesh to get yourself feeling all salty and pumped up, [...]

Mindy White (Lydia) and Anthony Green (Circa Survive)- Baby, It’s Cold Outside Copeland- Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

So apparently Rage Against The Machine did a live studio performance in England for a local radio station due to the band’s increasing popularity overseas.  They performed the song “Killing In The Name” and at the final verse where it was supposed to be edited, Zach Delrocha screamed “Fuck you, I won’t do what they [...]

Julian Casablancas Phrazes for the Young I’ve read a lot of articles about the anticlimactic rise to success the Strokes never quite achieved. After the group disbanded in 2008 in what was described as a “much needed break”, the only valuable information anyone seems to have about the Strokes is how great they “almost were”. [...]

Manchester Orchestra recently did a session for Alt. Nation on Sirius and performed some acoustic songs off of their hit albm Mean Everything To Nothing.  They performed songs such as “I’ve Got Friends”, “Shake It Out” and others to their liking.   If  you haven’t picked up this album your probably an idiot because it’s one [...]
