    Deftones’ shelved 2008 album “Eros” and demos from the sessions for their 2020 album “Ohms” have reportedly leaked online.

  • Ozzy Osbourne’s Throne To Go On Display At Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery

    The throne the late Ozzy Osbourne used during his 2024 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony and his and Black Sabbath’s 2025 farewell show will be added to the ongoing “Ozzy Osbourne: Working Class Hero” exhibit at the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery in Birmingham, UK on July 1. That display was extended and will now run until September 27.

    Ozzy’s widow Sharon Osbourne said the following:

    “As we approach the one-year anniversary of ‘Back To The Beginning’, it feels fitting that Ozzy’s throne, which has now become synonymous with his final performance, would be placed in the museum, where it can be seen by the fans who loved him.”

    Sara Wajid and Zak Mensah, co-chief executives at Birmingham Museums Trust, continued:

    “We are delighted to be able to display Ozzy’s throne at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. This extraordinary object is instantly recognizable to fans around the world and represents a powerful final chapter in Ozzy’s remarkable career.

    As we mark the first anniversary of his passing, it offers visitors a special opportunity to come together, remember Ozzy and celebrate the legacy of a true Birmingham legend.”

    Sam Watson, chair of Central BID Birmingham, also commented:

    “Since the momentous ‘Back To The Beginning’ gig last year, Central BID has been working closely with the Osbourne family to bring Ozzy’s throne back to Birmingham, so fans can see it up close and feel the spirit of Ozzy is still with everyone.

    We were determined to bring this iconic throne back to Ozzy’s home city first, a place he loved so much and for his fans to be able to visit, and we are grateful to Sharon and her family for allowing us to make this happen.”

    Councillor Deborah Harries, Birmingham City Council Cabinet Member for Culture, added:

    “Ozzy Osbourne is one of Birmingham’s most foremost cultural figures, and it is only right that we continue to honor his extraordinary legacy here in the city where his journey began.

    The return of his iconic throne to Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery gives fans and visitors a powerful new way to connect with his story at what is an emotional moment, marking a year since his passing.

    This exhibition has already welcomed hundreds of thousands of visitors and demonstrates the global pull of Birmingham’s musical heritage. We’re proud to support this collaboration with Birmingham Museums Trust and partners, which not only celebrates Ozzy’s life but also brings people into the heart of our city.

    Working closely with partners we will be promoting other Sabbath-related activity to experience in the city over the summer.”

  • All That Remains Frontman Phil Labonte Doubles Down On His “Therapy Is For Women” Claim

    All That Remains singer Phil Labonte recently faced backlash after claiming that “therapy is for women.” Among those who called him out was former Cradle Of Filth keyboardist/vocalist Lindsay Schoolcraft, who said his comments were an “extremely toxic, masculine view.” Now, in a new new video, Labonte doubled down on his controversial beliefs.

    Labonte said the following:

    “Last week I was on a podcast, and it got to the topic of mental health and stuff. And I said that therapy is for women. Now, studies have shown that therapy does actually work better for women, that men have a lower success rate, for a variety of different reasons. And that really upset people — like, this true thing that I said really upset people. There were a lot of people that were coming to my X page and really worked up, and there were a lot of people that even went to the band’s Instagram page. And most of the time they were saying basically straw man arguments, saying that, ‘Oh, you don’t think that men should talk about their problems. You don’t think that men should do this,’ and da, da, da. I didn’t say that. I said that therapy is for women. But there was another thing that happened a lot, and it was a lot of people were doing ad hominems, like this particular lady here, Lindsay. I don’t know her at all. But there was a lot of people that said, ‘Oh, he needs therapy.’ They were ad hominem saying, ‘You’re a little boy,’ blah, blah, blah. ‘You shouldn’t be saying these things,’ and, ‘You’re just a scared little boy, and you should go to therapy.’ And I’m, like, ‘Why are you saying that I should go to therapy?’ I’ve already told you, therapy’s for women.”

  • Iron Maiden To Enforce Phone-Free Standing Area During Paris, France Show Due To Filming

    Iron Maiden will be filming the June 22 date of their “Run For Your Lives” tour at La Défense Arena in Paris, France. As such, the band are planning to enforce a phone-free standing area.

    The group commented:

    “Tomorrow’s show at La Défense Arena will use Yondr pouches to make the standing/General Admission floor entirely phone-free while we record the ‘Run For Your Lives’ Tour film. This will enable us to create the optimal viewing experience for our fans on release, and a unique viewing experience for our standing fans in Paris.

    If you have a standing ticket, your device will be locked in the pouch on arrival and unlocked when you leave at the end of the night.

    Bring a physical payment card to use at the bars and merch stands.

    There are areas within the arena where you will be able to access your phone for emergencies.

    Your pouch will stay with you for the duration of the show – no one else will be handling your device.

    Head to the venue early to make sure everything goes smoothly.

    This is ONLY for the standing area at tomorrow’s show. No other show will use Yondr pouches. This was declared when the tickets went on sale last year. Adjustments for disabled customers are available with proof of disability. Pouches can be unlocked in designated areas for you to access your phone should you need to.”
