Remember Glassjaw?
You know Glassjaw, right? The band that’s been making their new album for the past decade or so. Well, I don’t know what I missed in 2010 (besides regular sex, a good job and true love :(), but the guys are doing something unimaginable: releasing new shit.
A few days after the release of their “Our Color Green” EP, comes a new song, “Gold.” The new song will be featured on an entirely new (and free) EP they will be releasing at live shows exclusively, called “Coloring Book.” I think I see a pattern, and it includes colors. Yours truly, Captain Obvious.
Tickets on their website, more info here, and the song after the jump.
Kiss garden gnomes. For real.
We’ve had boots, guitars, condoms and coffins. Is there anything really left for Kiss to exploit brand and sell? Of course there is. Garden gnomes.
You’ve heard it right, garden gnomes. So if you want to scare off people coming to your frontyard, be careful and keep your eye on kissonline.com. Now excuse me, I’m too busy ordering my Kiss toilet paper to wipe my ass off with, feel free to make the jump and see a bigger image of the aforementioned gnomes.
Get a new DevilDriver song for free
Coal Chamber DevilDriver are going to release their new album ‘Beast’ on February 21st, so it’s just a little over a month away. You can now download the first song of that album, called ‘Dead to Rights,’ via the Roadrunner Records site.
Meanwhile check out the album artwork after the jump. It’s nothing to write home about though, as it looks just as cheap as their first three album artworks. At least, the music’s promising.
Dave Grohl. Godlike? Genius?
According to Shockwave NME Awards, yes he is. According to Grohl himself, no. The Godlike Genius award will be handed to him in February, and here’s what he had to say about it:
“I don’t think I’m godlike or a genius,” he told NME.com. “It’s flattering. It’s a nice thing to be acknowledged for doing something you love to do, but in truth I don’t consider it a body of work because I don’t consider it work.”
Isn’t it nice to see someone humble for a change? Imagine Axl Rose or Serj Tankian getting the award. Imagine their speach. I guess the universe would implode as a counter reaction to it. Good thing we have Dave Grohl.
One Minute Silence return
Yay, more Nu-Metal Rapcore acts return. In case you haven’t heard, it’s the new bandwagon. It’s the new cool thing to do. It’s like all the Nu-Metal bands were drowning their sorrows together, wondering whatever happened to their fame and fortune, and then it clicked. They could all plan comebacks and make it the new fad.
We’ve had Crazy Town, Limp Bizkit, and Rage Against the Machine reunite, but now we have One Minute Silence back too. Well 3/4s of them anyways. I can hardly wait for more hip-de-hop chicken pecking headbanging action.
