  • Clawfinger Premiere “Big Brother” Music Video

    Clawfinger have premiered a new video for their new song “Big Brother.” This track is from the band’s new album “Before We All Die,” which will be released on February 20. Frontman Zak Tell commented:

    “‘Big Brother’ is an idea I wrote back in 2007 but it never turned into a finished song. It’s about how we trade authenticity and privacy for approval. Fake lives lived on camera, zero substance, 15 seconds of fame and nothing good to say. We binge mindless content, go numb, and don’t even question constant surveillance. We’ve learned to love being tracked, controlled, and fed nonsense 24/7, we don’t think even think about it. Who the fuck are we?”

    Frontman Nick Guimenti commented:

    “I am extremely grateful to be making music with my best friends again. Somehow, our time away from the band has made us into better musicians, at least in my opinion. I have re-fallen in love with heavy music during the past couple years, and I think we all wanted to bring a fresh energy back to MTH. No rules, no obligations — just write whatever we want and chase what feels good.

    We’ve all got our home studios up and running now, so there is nothing stopping us from creating whatever want. Of course, the fact that this is our first album in several years cannot be ignored. But in truth, we are all just focused on the future. I’m already thinking about what we want to drop next.

    Also, I have to thank everyone who’s a been fan and supported the band on these new songs because your response and kindness has been a huge source of energy for us. I still feel like a kid on Christmas each time we release something because I know the second it goes out into the world, it becomes real. I’m extremely proud of this record and it is a personal achievement for us, but there is still so much to do. As I keep reminding myself, this is just the beginning, not the end.”

  • Lamb Of God Premiere “Parasocial Christ” Video

    Lamb Of God have premiered a new video for their new song “Parasocial Christ.” Vocalist Randy Blythe commented:

    “The Information Age has birthed the attention economy, an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars anchored in keeping eyeballs firmly glued to screens, thus generating ad revenue. Every second spent clicking and scrolling through the trivial and/or sordid details of other people’s lives, people that you will most likely never meet- celebrities, politicians, influencers- is another dollar in some already obscenely wealthy tech bro’s wallet. You are a product, and you are being sold in a marketplace you have no share in. The irony of you reading this some social media platform or music news aggregator site is not lost on me; nevertheless I hope this song might make you consider who and what you give your attention to. Fuck the clickbait, put down the phone, go live your life- it’s waiting for you out in what’s left of the real world.”

  • Bill Ward And Type O Negative’s Surviving Members May Finally Release Their Collaborative Track

    Awhile back, Black Sabbath’s Bill Ward was working on a new collaborative track with Type O Negative’s Johnny Kelly, Kenny Hickey, and Josh Silver. However, the song has yet to surface. As such, Kelly was recently asked about the single during a chat with Mark Strigl. According to him, Ward is currently planning to complete the track in the near future.

    Kelly said the following:

    “I wanna say at this point, maybe it was eight years ago, something like that. The foundation of it is, at the time, when Peter [Steele] had passed away, Bill had written a song in tribute to Peter. And he wanted to get the rest of us to play on it — Kenny, Josh and myself. So Kenny and I went out to California. We did the drum tracks, did the guitar tracks for it. I think Kenny’s singing on it a little bit. I think [Jason “Dewey” Bragg] may be singing on [the song], ’cause through that friendship of Bill and I, Dewey became friends with Bill Ward, and then Bill would have Dewey sing a lot of the stuff. Bill’s always working on music, so he’s always writing and recording and stuff like that. And he grabbed Dewey. So we did the song. Josh actually did a keyboard track on it and stuff. He didn’t go to California; he did it in New York. And that was it. We recorded the song, and for a long time I wasn’t really sure what’s going on or whatever. But the last time I spoke to Bill, he was talking about getting the song finished… That was this year. It was after [the] ‘Back To The Beginning’ [concert in early July]. He said that he was gonna start working on that and get it wrapped up.”

    He continued when asked if the song is heavy:

    “Uh, yes, it’s heavy, melancholy. I’m trying to remember it. It was eight years ago. [Laughs] As it was happening, I was just like… Bill Ward was my hero growing up, so to sort of become friends with him… And now I’m in a room recording with him. And I was just in awe of the whole experience. So I’m sitting there on the kit, and Bill is in front of me like a maestro, pointing, telling me where to go and what to [play]. I’m just, like, ‘Deep breath.’”

    Kelly also added the following after Strigl expressed interest in hearing the song:

    “I wanna hear it too. And it’s cool in the sense where you have the three surviving members of TYPE O actually playing music together, which is cool in itself to me. And then, throw on top of it, you’re working with people from BLACK SABBATH — like, O.G. BLACK SABBATH. So it’s pretty cool in that sense. But, yeah, hopefully it comes out soon. I guess we’ll all know when it comes out.”

    “’Ordinary People’ is a song that is a reaction to rich and powerful men trying to convince us that they are ordinary people and that empathy is a toxic trait.”

  • Tom Morello: “There’s Probably Like An Album’s Worth Of Great Audioslave Songs That Were Not Released”

    During a recent interview with snsmix, Audioslave’s Tom Morello confirmed that the band are still sitting on unreleased material. According to him, “there’s probably like an album’s worth of great Audioslave songs that were not released.”

    Morello said the following:

    “There’s probably like an album’s worth of great Audioslave songs that were not released. In part because — first let me explain — that when bands are deciding what songs go on their records and what don’t, it’s not always sensible. It’s not like here’s the 10 best jams. Sometimes it’s like, someone likes this one, someone’s not feeling that one. So, we had from each of the three Audioslave records, we had songs left over, some of which are really great.

    And you know, I hate say this because it’s just every time it comes up in interviews, it’s a tease. It becomes a pull-quote that people hound me about. It’s not for lack of anything other than that just we don’t have it together. There’s no plan to not put it out. I would love for it to get in the world, and hopefully it will one day.”
