Diabulus In Musica sign with Napalm Records
I’ll be honest, I’m pretty lazy reader. Hence when I skimmed through today’s headlines I actually thought this story was something to do with the Slayer album Diabolus in Musica and Napalm Death.
Since it’s about neither, I don’t care. Go read Blabbermouth instead for more on this “exciting” news.
Sol Invicto can do metal
Remember Sol Invicto? They’re, from what I can gather, some sort of electro band (I’ve only heard of metal – so forgive me if I have that wrong) that contains a few members of Cypress Hill, Steph of Deftones fame, and Richie Londres who is the coolest member by default, because we interviewed him and he comments on our posts.
A few people (not us obviously, we’re all down with that electro stuff) were a little concerned that there was a lack of solos, double tapping and blastbeats, but fear not, because yesterday Sol Invicto linked to a piece of music they had composed that contained guitars – yes, actual guitars! You can watch the clip above (taken from a 2010 Gumball 3000 movie trailer).
Ok, so there’s no solos, no double tapping and no blast beats (or pig squeels), but you can take comfort in the fact it’s probably better than anything Korn is doing right now. The song will apparently be on Initium III – which isn’t porn, so I have no idea what it is.
For more on Sol Invicto, check out their Facebook page and official site. It’s not as good as porn, but definitely better than Korn.
Machine Headshot
Phil Demmel, Machine Head‘s guitarist, got a shoe to his machine head two days ago in Belgium. Then he got pissed and walked off.
Some dumbass threw it, and he’s either a really good thrower, or a very lucky one. Either way, I don’t endorse throwing shit at shows, but I do endorse capital punishment for people who do that. Still, the jokes I could write about the word ‘head’ in the band’s name and the shoe that hit it… Damn… This is a goldmine.
Anyway, I wanted to take that video and add the most appropriate sound effect ever, but I am way too lazy. So here, play this exactly as the shoe hits his head:

Want to listen to the new Korn album?
Hate torrents? Afraid of RIAA? Well, you can now do it legally, via Roadrunner’s website. Click here to listen to The Path of Totality.
If you’re up for some mind-blowing guitar solos, faster than light drumming and bass lines that make Evan Brewer shit his pants, you’re at the wrong place, bro.
Metallica will play a Danish prison next year
You’re thinking: “Let them stay there!” but to ruin it for you: it’s not a real prison, it’s a former prison now used as an entertainment venue. I know you’re now probably as disappointed as I was when I saw the Blabbermouth headline. Click-click-clickety-click they gotta make some money, foo!
Yeah, lame. Anyway, they’ll be playing the entire Black album, because that’s the ‘tallica thing this summer, and if you happen to find yourself in Horsens, Denmark on June 6, 2012, make sure to go and let us know what it was like, we’ll be too busy redecorating our basements doing other important stuff.
