Kerry King fingers his guitar
Kerry King sure loves his guitar, because as you can see in the clip above, he gives it the index finger lovin’ technique we all used on our girls, right? Well, I did, anyway… Okay, so it wasn’t a real girl, just a blowup doll, but it still counts.
The audio is kinda bad and the video quality reminds me of the early 90s, so I can’t really say I’m happy with this video, but if you like Slayer (and you should), you’ll definitely check it out.
Another clip of him playing and an interview, after the jump. The article we stole got these clips from is here.
Soulfly drummer likes his own record
Soulfly drummer David Kinkade (not pictured above, can’t be bothered to look for a photo of him, so one of Max will have to do for now, bitch) likes his new record, and according to him it’s sick and ‘thrashy as fuck.’
We’ll have to take his word for it, cause it’s not like he’s being subjective or anything…
“The record is sounding fucking SICK. Thrashy as fuck… totally Arise on crack and speed.“

Wow, so it’s Sepultura meets Charlie Sheen, is that what he’s trying to say? Good God, sounds lovely. How do you translate ‘#winning’ in Portuguese?
Zakk Wylde has a stalker
When you think ‘celebrity stalkers,’ you usually think it’s for Megan Fox, Brad Pitt, Alex from Dose of Metal, you know — real celebrities.
Turns out even quasi-celebrities from the Z-list get stalkers, which brings me to Zakk Wylde and his lovable fan.
“Zakk Wylde claims he’s ‘terrified’ of an obsessed fan who recently left a ‘sacrifice’ at his home, filed a request for a restraining order against his 20-year-old neighbor … claiming the guy has been stalking and harassing him a while.
According to the docs, Wylde recently called police to respond to an incident at his home involving the neighbor — which resulted in cops placing the neighbor in a 72 hour hold for mental evaluation.
Wylde claims the neighbor was ‘deemed mentally ill’ — and diagnosed with bipolar 1 disorder.“

Mentally ill? I’ll say… Who the hell stalks Zakk Wylde? Who the hell needs to stalk Zakk Wylde? I’m sure leaving a trail of Johnnie Walker Black Label drops à la ‘Hansel and Gretel’ will get him to follow you… Why risk jail time?
Oh well, I guess we’re glad Zakk is okay and the psycho is in custody. Read the full article on TMZ to see what the sacrifice was (spoiler: a guitar).
When trying to look cool goes wrong
I’ve seen Judas Priest live twice, so I always wondered if his bike ever malfunctioned, or if it just embarrassed him in any way during his ‘oh, look at me! I’m a biker!’ moment on stage.
Guess my question has been answered with a video.
Check the video above and laugh your ass off. I don’t think he got hurt (didn’t check, I really don’t want to play paramedic with him, if you know what I mean), so you can sleep tonight after laughing at another man’s misfortune.
The fall is at around 0:22, by the way.
The Iron Man, Iommi, announces book signing
The iconic Black Sabbath guitarist has announced he will be signing copies of his new autobiography, ‘Iron Man: My Journey Through Heaven And Hell With Black Sabbath’ (#Iseewhathedidthere), at Fopp London (U.K.) on Monday, October 17.
