Jingle bells, Slipknot smells…
Corey Taylor of Slipknot, Stone Sour and The Powerpuff Girls is releasing a Christmas song. Really? I guess he wants to be up there with the likes of Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez cause I’m sure they’re also releasing stuff this Christmas.
The song is apparently called “X-M@$” and is gonna be dirty. Although I’m sure he means it’s gonna be ‘c|1r7y,’ cause obviously Corey‘s obviously down with the leet ASCII crowd.
Anyway, apparently it’ll be out December 4th and no other info is available. Nor needed. Nor cared for.

Santana's guitar is gently weeping
Because it misses some original songs, you know. And what is the one thing rock and metal musicians do when they want to show how “serious” and “mature” their music is? Hire some symphony orchestra to play random background noise to their music. What do you get when you mix these two? Carlos Santana‘s new project. Details after the jump.
AC/DC Download an award
When I first heard about this, I just assumed AC/DC were cheap, technology had advanced, and the band had just downloaded an award. Turns out I was wrong though.
Apparently, the band have won the UK ‘Headline Performance Of The Year’ award, for their performance at this year’s Download Festival. It was indeed awesome (but that was mostly because I was there), but they don’t have a lot to rival them. Who’s their next biggest rival to the award? Guns N’ Posers turning up an hour late at Reading and then throwing a hissy fit when they get cut off? Hardly.
Well, speaking on behalf of everyone at DoM, congratulations AC/DC and to Download for their award.
P.S. Did I mention I was there?
Fuck the Bonus EP
Fuck the Facts are releasing a Bonus EP exclusively with the vinyl edition of their yet-to-be-released album “Die Miserable.” Will the album be as bad as the title? Will the Bonus EP be as bad as the album? Who is that girl? Make the jump to get the answers.
