Dose of new metal

Hey guys, whatcha doing? Having a good day? Well, I’m here to ruin it make it even better for you. Five Finger Death Punch have a new song out! Aren’t you super excited? Well, then you’re going to go crazy over a new P.O.D. track! But wait, there’s more — some guys from Deftones met some guys from Far and made some completely new atrocity. The only reason “new” in the title isn’t “nu” is because I’ve managed to balance things out by finding a new Opeth song, and a surprise track by another band. Ooooo, which one is it?

Make the jump and find out.

Five Finger Death Punch reveal new bassist

Five Finger Death Punch have found a new bassist, and I’m betting you’re all excited to find out who they’ve picked? Oh no, wait, I forgot that no one cares.

So any way, the new bassist is Chris Kael (who?) and he looks like Varg Vikernes.

Is he under 6ft in height, under 35 years old and a non smoker? I sure hope so, because that’s the criteria the band put forward for auditions, even if the band did later claim it was fake.

If you care (which you shouldn’t if you have any care for your ears), more information can be found at Blabbermouth.

If you live in California, RUN!

All kinds of evil music spirits are set to grab Southern California by the balls this September, so you’d better run the fuck away if you live in that area.

Why? Cause Epicenter will have Limp Bizkit, Staind, Papa Roach, P.O.D., Puddle Of Mudd and Five Finger Death Punch. No, I’m not making this up. Yes, you should be afraid. Yes, do touch me there.

“Limp Bizkit is back, more dangerous and contagious than ever with our original lineup, NEW album, ‘Gold Cobra’, and Epicenter to take your rock and roll fantasy past the extreme,” says Fred Durst. “I promise this will be a party you do NOT want to miss. Epicenter will be our first and only Southern California shindig. And fellas, don’t be mad that Epicenter will be filled with women…that’s how we roll.“

More info here. Poster after the jump.

The good news is that it happens on September 24, so you do have enough time to plan your escape. The band news is, well, written above.

I can’t join FFDP (and neither can you)

FFDP stands for Five Finger Death Punch, in case you care (but now you know, you will probably want to five finger death punch your monitor screen in). They also recently lost a bass player, which means they’re on the lookout for a new one. Think you have what it takes? Then why not apply?

Just make sure that you don’t drink too much alcohol, don’t smoke, your image is “alternative/Metal” enough to fit in, you’re not over 35, you’re under 6 foot tall, you have some tattoos, you’re not fat, not skinny, and a bunch of other crap. Yeah, well that’s me out… Equal opportunities FTW!

According to Metalsucks, some rep for the band has also alleged that the band were not involved with the flier (which can be viewed after the jump), and that it was mistake of some sorts… Hmm.

Weak Recap: The Big Fourth

Welcome to yet another Weak Recap. Last week, Mark did me, so this week I’ll be returning the favor. We’re also taking turns interviewing each other. As usual, we’re looking back at the week’s most important headlines. Why? Because repetition is the mother of all learning. And it’s also a pretty easy way to make another post without being original at all.

Make the jump to get reminded of how awesome we were throughout the week.
