‘Bang your own head, not a seal’s’
Talking of sexism (see previous post), Alissa White-Gluz of The Agonist recently had something important to say in a video, but I wasn’t paying any attention ’cause she’s hot. No, but seriously, of course I was paying attention.
Alissa has joined with peta2, the youth animal rights organization, for an advert opposing Canada’s annual seal slaughter. The ad shows Alissa above a photo of a baby seal who is about to be clubbed and reads, “Bang Your Own Head, Not a Seal’s.” More information can be found over at Blabbermouth.
A lot of people aren’t fans of Peta for whatever reason, but I think we can all agree that cruelty and abuse of animals is absolutely despicable, vile, and can not be accepted.
Some boring headlines
Time for some headlines, folks, and trust me, they’ll bore you to death.
Queensrÿche (pictured above… i think… it’s not the 80s, is it?) are talking about their new album and, you guessed it, it’s “going in another direction.” If I had a blowjob for every time I heard that…
Lars Ulrich is an actor now. A photo of him on the set pictured and I can only describe it with three letters: LOL
Nevermore are embarking on a clinic tour around Serbia, Italy and Greece. I wish Paramore would do the same. I heard Serbian laws for rape are pretty forgiving.
Nick Oliveri is not working with Homme yet. He squashed those rumors in a recent interview. Too bad the one spreading them was himself.
Evergrey are going on tour
A pretty decent tour is happening throughout Canada and the United States this fall. Progressive metal giants Evergrey are headlining the tour and they’re bringing out Swedish metal band Sabaton, video game geeks Powerglove, a band that really wants to sound like Children of Bodom named Black Guard and The Absence, who quite frankly just bore me to death.

The Metallicops are coming
Metallica have been earning gazillions off the name Metallica for quite some time. So another company decided they also want a piece of the action. So they falsely claimed they bought ‘several hours of unique Metallica 3D & 2D footage for distribution.’ Their scam failed when nobody was interested in that footage.
Well, ya dun goofed, guys. The Metallicops are coming for you. Consequences will never be the same.

Rob Zombie voodoo doll
Rob Zombie must know me all too well, because for just $30, I can finally get a Rob Zombie voodoo doll. So can you.
You know what I’m gonna do with mine? Stick a pin through its urethra and make it stop making bad movies. Hope you use yours wisely, too.
