Blitzkritik: Mortiis – Perfectly Defect

Thanks to our wonderful editor Mark, yesterday we got to find out what’s going on with Mortiis.  Not that any of us cared, really. Besides the fact that frontman lost his goblin mask and the record label, it seems they’ve been busy releasing music for free via internet. Also, nowadays they look like they’ve spent an awful lot of time hanging out with Chilean miners.

Anyway, I was bored, it was free, and I decided to listen to it. Read on to find out if my experiment will be worth it, or will it be the musical equivalent of catching crabs.

Interview: Jono Bacon (Severed Fifth)

I sat down for a little talk with Severed Fifth‘s one and only, Jono Bacon. Okay, we didn’t literally talk face to face, but there was a fair amount of sitting in front of our computers involved. No, you’re a geek!

Read on to find out more about the band, new album, Creative Commons and if cowgirl is better than reversed-cowgirl.

Steven Adler just creamed his pants

Here’s a picture of a chick, just to make this easier on you: more Guns N’ Roses drama on the way!

Last night, Duff McKagan joined Axl Rose and The Hired Guns on stage, and performed a few Guns N’ Roses songs (for the first time in about a 100 years). Steven Adler was quick to beg comment on the whole thing.

Could this be the beginning of a reunion? Aren’t you just super excited? …Yeah, me neither. Make the jump to see the photos and videos if you’re really bored and haven’t stopped caring about this band back in 95.

Homerhead

What do you get when you combine something old and something older: Mötörhëäd in the “Tree House of Horror” Simpsons Halloween special (edition number 131 by the way).

Since the last time anyone has looked forward to something Simpsons related was back when their season numbers were single digit, and the last time Motorhead were exciting was around the time Jesus had no pubes, we’re not sure why we’re posting this as news. Anyway, in the episode, Lemmy takes Homer to hell. Good, let him stay there. Read on to see how Lemmy looks when drawn badly.

Immortal to bang their heads

The greatest black metal band to ever run down some hills and act like they got seizures in their videos, Immortal, have been confirmed as the first headliners of the German Bang Your Head festival.

We totally recommend you go buy tickets now, make the jump and stop giving a shit about other bands when you can witness this live:
