Want to play guitar like Jaymz?

Then buy his signature picks, yo!

“Preferring picks with a bright tone and biting attack, Hetfield looked to Dunlop for the perfect tool for his fierce downward picking style.“

Fuck practicing 5 hours a day and actually having talent. Buying these picks is all you need. More info after the jump

Blitzkritik: Serj Tankian – Imperfect Harmonies

Alright, so you know the score. Blitzkritik means I listen to an album and write the review as I go through it. Fast. To the point. Superficial. Subjective. Lame. Everything a review has to be. Here we go.

I’m not gonna beat around the bush… I’ve always hated Serj, but not necessarily ‘Serj the Musician,’ although he is pretentious and condescending with his music, but mostly ‘Serj, the propagandist.’

I just find it completely lame that he wasn’t born in the United States, but went there as child, met his future bandmates, got rich and famous, and now is criticizing the very country that made it all possible. I have an idea, why don’t you go back to Armenia?

Anyways, he’s released a solo album. Will I like it? Probably not, but who knows?

Stone Temple Pilots do fans a favor

“According to El Paso Times, the Stone Temple Pilots concert scheduled for tonight (Tuesday, September 21) at the El Paso County Coliseum in El Paso, Texas has been “postponed.“

It is thought that the reason behind the postponement is Scott Weiland sparing his fans of another God-awful gig. See? Some rockstars care about their fans.

Slash and Ozzy, sitting in a tree…

S. U. C. K. I. N. G.

“Legendary guitarist Slash told Philadelphia radio station WMMR that he will likely play in Philadelphia with Ozzy Osbourne in January.“

We’re about as excited as Elton John reading a Playboy magazine…

You could listen to the interview here, but we won’t be able to respect you if you do…
