Metal up your ass, brother!
Pretend-fighter Hulk Hogan claims he could have been a pretend-member of Metallica — get it? Cause except James and Lars, no one has a say in that band. Jeez, why do I have to explain all the jokes to you?
“I used to be a session musician before I was a wrestler. I played bass guitar. I was big pals with Lars Ulrich and he asked me if I wanted to play bass with Metallica in their early days but it didn’t work out.“
Visit the page we stole this from here.
This guy would have nailed the AJFA gig. Imagine pretending to do something, but not actually doing it… Not that hard for a pro wrestler, is it?
Megadeth go behind the scenes, yo
Music videos are almost a thing of the past. Do you remember the days when labels would invest millions into a single music video? Of course you don’t, cause that was back in the early 20s.
So what is there to see when it comes to Megadeth‘s video? I don’t know cause I’ll be honest, I haven’t watched that clip. But maybe you will, so enjoy.
New Van Halen
I realize “New Van Halen” is an oxymoron, kind of like “stupid Alex” or “shitty Dose of Metal.” Or “Straight David Lee Roth.”
But the guys really do have a new sample for you, and you can listen to it below.
Do I care about it, though? Well, let’s see, here’s a comment that was posted on our site recently:
“Why the fuck do you always post about shit and then say you “don’t care” about it? Sometimes I wonder if you cunts even listen to metal.”
Don’t care.
Shh! There’s a secret in Down!
Apparently there’s more to Rex’s departure from Down than what he said. Something ‘personal’ happened between them, but they don’t want to talk about it.
I know, two former Pantera members split and they aren’t trashing each other in the press? What the hell is wrong with these people?
Anyway…
“It’s really a two-part thing. Part one is that it really kind of ran its course. Part two is kinda personal. I’ll anser any fucking thing you wanna ask me, but certain things are personal. But I spoke to Rex for 45 minutes at the end of last week, and he’s sounding great. […] He’s still a great, great friend.“
Said Kirk “140 characters or less” Windstein. I wonder what Phil had to say. Good thing this is text and not video, cause it would have taken him ages to respond. Anyway…
“Rex is a brother of mine, and we made somewhat of a pact that we would not tread on each other in various interviews. So I’m gonna stick with what is the truth: that he had different ideas about what a band should be.“

So they’re both keeping it quiet? Then it’s anyone’s guess, really. My guess is: Rex and Phil were playing Snap. Phil obviously took 5 minutes each time to yell “Snap!,” making Rex the winner all the time. Phil got annoyed, shit hit the fan.
When asked for a comment, Phil said “Mmm….” and then took 10 minutes to finish the sentence.
