Black Appetite For Puppets
You like my title? Fuck you.
Anyway, these three albums made Rolling Stone’s Top 10 albums of the 80s. Here’s the complete list:
01. U2 – The Joshua Tree
02. Guns N’ Roses – Appetite For Destruction
03. Michael Jackson – Thriller
04. Bruce Springsteen – Born In The U.S.A.
05. Prince – Purple Rain
06. AC/DC – Back In Black
07. The Smiths – The Queen Is Dead
08. The Clash – London Calling
09. The Cure – Disintegration
10. Metallica – Master Of Puppets
It’s not a bad top. I don’t agree with the order though, but I’m pretty sure it’s a matter of opinion… And opinions are like assholes, they itch and are dirty.

Bon Jovi, Hetfield and Bono are rich
According to Reuters, Jon Bon Jovi, James Hetfield and Bono are better at life than you, because they made a lot of money this year with their band while you work a crappy job and barely make any money. Not enough to make you kill yourself? Fine, let’s bring in the numbers…
– Bon Jovi grossed $201.1 million
– AC/DC grossed $177 million.
– U2 grossed $160.9 million.
– Lady Gaga was No. 4 this year with $133.6 million.
– Metallica was No. 5 with $110.1 million from 60 overseas shows.Full article here.
Leaving all jokes aside, U2, Bon Jovi, AC/DC and Metallica as the top touring acts isn’t a bad thing considering all the dreadful music which is out today. Which brings me to Lady Gaga. WHAT THE FUCK?
The uglier version of Marilyn Manson who makes repetitive bubblegum pop music with SNES instrumentals brings in as much cash as the big boys? This world is going down the drain.
When asked if she gets a shriveled penis from stage fright, Lady Gaga had no comment.
Top 10 songs that make men do what?
The PRS for music have conducted a survey of the top 10 songs that make men cry. Metal Hammer reports. The following songs made the list:
1. REM – ‘Everybody Hurts’
2. Eric Clapton – ‘Tears in Heaven’
3. Leonard Cohen – ‘Hallelujah’
4. Sinead O’Connor – ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’
5. U2 – ‘With or Without You’
6. The Verve – ‘The Drugs Don’t Work’
7. Elton John – ‘Candle in the Wind’
8. Bruce Springsteen – ‘Streets of Philadelphia’
9. Todd Duncan – ‘Unchained Melody’
10. Robbie Williams – ‘Angels’
Now, to me this sounds more like a list of songs that make men contemplate breaking up with their girlfriends (the list is also known as your girlfriend’s romantic mixtape), or in case a man does listen to this, it’s because his boyfriend dumped him. The guys over at Metal Hammer have made their own top 10, with metal songs to cry to. We’re not sure if any metalhead has ever cried to a song, except if he was forced to listen to the new Linkin Park album front to back, but we’ll take their word. Continue reading to see the list.
