Dave Mustaine is crazy,we all knew that before. But he is actually the first metal musician to start a radio show with his own music. And we’re not talking about usual chit-chat, or a talkshow. This guy is going to bring us hell to our doorsteps. He has already confirmed that eh will be working closely with Clear Radio and some of his friends, interviewing anything that has metal indicated it. He also mentioned something about playing the music that we are not aware that he likes, like Beatles, or Dead Kennedy’s.

Finally somebody who can tell “I know what music will rock your butts off” will be joining forces with radio stations to promote and satisfy thousands of fans. Hell yeah!

Apparently Slipknot has canceled some of their upcoming gigs as their drummer Joey Jordison’s illness. The musician should be back on track soon but we shouldn’t expect any shows in the near future as whole August and September have been dropped. We hope that Joey will come back to his form soon so the band could re-start touring the world.

In the meantime their new re-release of the first album in special 10th anniversary edition pack is available to buy in your local stores and online of course.

Corey Taylor will be join us soon alongside of Stone Sour on few upcoming gigs. Stay tuned for more info!

The new Nickelback’s single has been released with a brand new video on AOLMusic. Their latest release, “Dark Horse” is a good smash and grab among rock artists, so finally our patience has been awarded with this explosive video clip. New album is on sale at Amazon, iTunes and AOL Music, but you can also grab it from your local music store.

Video has been released yesterday and it’s available widely from Noisecreep. On the new album they hired Robert “Mutt” Lange to sit in the producers chair. This legend of sound has produce for stars like Def Leppard, AC/DC etc. Surely Nickelback loves their ’80’s style rock!

Yesterday the group spokesman announced that the Oasis are pulling out of the V Festival due to Mick Gallagher’s viral laryngitis. It seems that the black clouds have gathered over the band heads as there are rumors going around that this might be their last show in the UK. They are suppose to reunite at the end of the month for Paris Show (28.08.09), but musician’s blog entries are proving that they are not entirely enjoying their shows. As well one of the brothers mentioned:

He doesn’t like me and I don’t like him, that’s it.

This was just a response to the questions about how they get along. Apparently they don’t even travel together anymore. Stay tuned for more details!

The Time Magazine released a list compiled by music critic Josh Tyrangiel, which contains the best guitar players ever. Among the candidates to the crown were well known personas, such as: Jimmy Page, B B King, Yngwie Malmsteen or Slash. But Hendrix beat them all with his fusion of blues, rock and progressive guitar riffs that gave many young people a kickstart to become great guitarists themselves.

Also Slash who took the second position was mentioned as a very precise player. Keith Richards who was placed as 4th best guitar player has gained a remarkably good position with his incredibly popular riffs that he wrote more than anyone else in the world.

We are surprised that there is no sign of great modern players such as Joe Satriani or John Petrucci (Dream Theater), who also deserve a piece of this important cake and have done remarkable thing with their axes. Satriani alone reinvented modern blues-rock fusion and taught many well known guitarists like: Steve Vai or Kirk Hammet.

The full list of the greatest guitarist ever goes like this:

01. Jimi Hendrix
02. Slash
03. B.B. King
04. Keith Richards
05. Eric Clapton
06. Jimmy Page
07. Chuck Berry
08. Les Paul
09. Yngwie Malmsteen
10. Prince

Muse will be coming back home on September 4th & 5th to Teignbridge Den. They had to be give a go by the local council and are on the strict policy (for example the loudness of the music must not exceed 84.1 decibels. The bassist of Muse mention that his very excited about playing there as this will be something different to the radio session or a London gig. He said that this will be their proud moment and should show people what they have achieved during last 12 years.

We will want to give something back to the community – maybe a youth organisation – but we have got to look at that in more detail.

Fans can grab their tickets starting from tomorrow (21st of August) so take your place in the queue!

Incredible frontman of AC/DC is thinking about leaving the band:

“We were talking about the end of the tour and I said, ‘We’re finishing in May and that’s me done!’” he says. “But Malcolm [Young, rhythm guitarist] said, ‘What are you talkin’ about? We’re not gonna let you retire!’ And now they’re talking about next year. I’m going, ‘What do you mean next year? We’re finishing in May in Japan, I’ll be tired!’ And they said: ‘Well, we’ve been offered some festivals…’”

Despite what he says, recently Brian admitted that he feels incredibly fresh “like 18 year old”. Hopefully he will continue to tour with the band and we’ll see them in the UK soon!

It has been confirmed that Machine Head, legends of classic metal, will be added to the Metallica’s shows in December this year. MH is going to play alongside Metallica in these shows:

• Dec. 05 – Las Vegas, NV – Mandalay Bay
• Dec. 07 – Boise, ID – Idaho Center
• Dec. 08 – Sacramento, CA – ARCO Arena
• Dec. 10 – Anaheim, CA – Honda Center
• Dec. 12 – San Jose, CA – HP Pavilion

Machine Head is still on tour promoting their latest creation born in 2007, called “The Blackening” which was praised to be the best metal album of the year. Because of this label attached to the album, the band release a special edition of “The Blackening” which features 2 CD/DVD with some previously unpublished track like covers, over an hour of footage from Download and Rock in Rio festivals, three uncensored videos and four never seen band performances celebrating 10th anniversary of releasing the ultimate master-album “Burn My Eyes” captured in Philadelphia in 2004.

Metallica’s drummer, Lars Urlich is willing to reward a person who will find and return his pendant that he lost in Spain during a small trip around the shops in Madrid. The pendant is very special to him cause it was a gift and now Lars if offering a cash reward to somebody who will find it and return it without asking any questions.

Approximately an hour befor the Madrid’s show ALrs went for a walk and lost his pendant around Cinderella shop on the corner of Jorge Juan with Ferran Gonzalez street. If you have any info please send an email to this address.
