Mr. Big Mouth
Mr Big, the band with the name equivalent of having a sock in your underwear, are making a new album. And not just any album, but an “impossible” one.
“Mr. Big have entered a studio to begin recording their new album, which according to bassist Billy Sheehan, will feature ‘impossible bass and guitar stuff’ and will be musically similar to the band’s 1991 album Lean Into It”
Boys sure like to hype themselves up, huh? Full article here.
When asked if by ‘impossible’ they mean ‘impossible to hear,’ Mr. Big had no comment.
Devin Townsend likes teasing you.
He may have been runner up for this year’s Sexiest Man Alive award from People magazine, but that’s not stopping Devin Townsend from working on his upcoming double album, “Ghost.” A double album? Yeah, that’s news to us, too.
If you want you see a video update on the recording process, then make the jump.
VH1 Leppard
Def Leppard, the only rock band in the world who can’t say “Throw your hands in the air” without seriously offending their drummer, will put the 1 in VH1 this November.
“Phil Collen will tape a segment for VH1 Classic‘s “That Metal Show” later today in the Los Angeles area. The episode featuring Collen will be broadcast on November 6 as part of the program’s sixth season on VH1 Classic.“
Okay, so not the whole band (although when it comes to Leppard, “whole band” is a relative term), just their guitarist. But still, check it out if you’re a fan.
Alice in Chains learned their lesson
Looks like the experimental (and lame) interactive video concept for Acid Bubble, which we previously covered didn’t work too well for Alice in Chains, because they’re already out with a new video! To make matters ironic, it’s actually called Lesson Learned. We’ll just leave it at that.
Don’t be fooled though, the guys didn’t let the fact they needed a boring regular video stop them from being creative, because the newest one is made entirely using stop-motion animation. Oooooooh. Make the jump and see it for yourself but be warned, because it could be labeled NSFW. Actually, if you’re at work you probably shouldn’t be on this page anyway…
Bret Michaels hates attention
Bret Michaels has a million love shows and whores himself out in many, many ways. But that still doesn’t sell records or tickets. It’s not fair, but it’s okay, he keeps trying and trying to win us over, cause he’s a winner.
He graces the cover of October’s issue of Billboard magazine, but we’re not sure if it’s a piece on him or on Photoshop in general because there’s so much airbrushing in there to make any Photoshop tutorial site jealous.
Expect more talk about his health issues, minus his premature male pattern baldness.
We believe obesity is a cause for concern, so we’re doing our part. Make the jump and see the cover in all its glory
