GN’R bassist says next album will come ‘much quicker’

Tommy Stinson, bassist of Guns N’ Roses, was recently interviewed by Jason P. Woodbury of the Phoenix New Times. I mostly didn’t read the interview because I have way better things to be doing (like getting drunk or laid), but one segment did catch my eye.

Phoenix New Times: “I thought about asking if GN’R was going to do another record, but I thought that might be the worst question in the word considering how long people asked about Chinese Democracy.”

Stinson: “You know, I just see us making a record much quicker, because, in hindsight, a lot of what happened with “Chinese Democracy”, we could get around now.”

Good news then GN’R fans, you’re only going to have to wait 10 years for a new album this time.

Mike Mushok of Staind interviewed

Staind guitarist Mike Mushok, (who may or may not be a character in Street Fighter) was recently interviewed by In The Now magazine. You can watch a video of the interview above.

I’m not sure exactly what was said in the video, because, well, I didn’t bother watching it.

Ask Anders Colsefni

Anders Colsefni, former vocalist of Slipknot, has started a Youtube account where he answers fan-submitted questions. You can basically ask him anything via his mentioned Youtube channel, his Facebook page, Twitter or email (anderscolsefni@gmail.com).

Personally I thought that all three videos, he has uploaded so far, were interesting, and I can’t help but point out how much of a professional and sincerely nice-guy he is.

If you’re wondering what not to ask, check out the questions he has already answered in our interview with him.

Check out the first edition of Ask Anders/Anders Colsefni Q&A above, part two and three after the jump.

News flash: Corey Taylor still has an opinion on everything

Corey Taylor likes to talk a lot. And by ‘a lot’ I mean ‘way too fucking much,’ because my man has an opinion on everything — and most of all, everybody.

After slamming Rick Rubin in the past as being overrated, now he’s saying he’s the best guy to work on the Black Sabbath reunion album. I guess we should praise him for being unbiased, eh?

“This is one of those instances I actually think Rick Rubin is perfect for. He gets out of the way and will let them get down to it. I can only hope they record it in the right way. I can only hope they get to do something righteous and not just something to make a buck. I think with Geezer and Tony pushing it forward, and, obviously, Bill and Ozzy, I think it will be fantastic. I am looking forward to riff fest!“

So Black Sabbath have Corey’s blessing? Pheew, they must have been nervous as hell waiting for a nu-metal singer’s approval. But now that they do have his blessing, they can finally start working on the album.

Everyone should just not do anything until Corey gives his OK on the given project. It’s just the right way to handle your career.

As for my opinion on Rick’s work. Let’s just say I want him to go Hiroshima on the loudness war and not stop with the ‘mixing’ until the waveforms of the album look like Tetris pieces.

Kenneth “$$” Downing is rich

Former Judas Priest guitarist needs to donate some money to this site, cause the guy is fucking rich, yo.

According to some site I couldn’t remember (but I will link to it anyway, cause I’m a nice guy), the dude sold two cars for approximately $100,000. WTF is the dude driving? If I sell my car, all I get is a kick in the ass.

“Auctioneers Brightwells said the musician’s ‘highly original 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 MkIII sparking an intense bidding war before finally going to a Belgian buyer for £35,750’. […] ‘While his somewhat scruffy 1959 Jensen 541R made a huge £26,950, almost twice the pre-sale estimate and showing what great gains this rare model has made in recent years.“

I am way too lazy to do the math, but I trust Blabbermouth when they say it amounts to approximately $100,000, which is a lot of money. K.K., I know you’re reading this, donate some money to us or THE SECRET IS OUT! Not blackmail, just a legitimate business offer.
