UPDATE: Loudwire have since noted that “Misery Business” is actually cited as an interpolate on “Maybe” in songwriting credits that were shared on Genius.
Original Story:
Machine Gun Kelly has been accused of ripping off Paramore‘s “Misery Business“ for his and Bring Me The Horizon’s collaborative tack “Maybe.“ As pointed out by The PRP, All That Remains frontman Phil Labonte was among those who commented on the alleged plagiarism after seeing a video from Rock Feed, which showcased the similarities between the tracks. This news comes after Machine Gun Kelly and Travis Barker (Blink-182) previously shared a cover of “Misery Business“ in 2020.
Nekrogoblikon guitarist Joe Nelson has been serving as a member of Avril Lavigne‘s backing band as of late. You can see footage of him performing “Love It When You Hate Me” with Lavigne, Blackbear, and Blink-182’s Travis Barker during the February 28 episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” below. Notably, the same lineup also performed on a recent episode of “Good Morning America.”
A Day To Remember have joined forces with Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus for a new version of their song “Re-Entry.” The original version of the track appears on the band’s latest album “You’re Welcome.“ A Day To Remember’s Jeremy McKinnon commented:
“When this song originally took shape it was without a doubt massively influenced by Blink-182, so when the idea came up to do a remix of sorts for it, Mark was immediately who we pictured. We sent him the track with no second verse and said to do whatever he was inspired to do and what he sent back genuinely makes the song for me. My younger self still can’t believe it exists.”
Darryl “DMC” McDaniels (Run-DMC) has teamed up with Sebastian Bach (ex-Skid Row), Mick Mars (Mötley Crüe), Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses), and Travis Barker (Blink-182) for a remake Of Ram Jam’s “Black Betty.” The new track is titled “She Gets Me High” and it is expected to be released “soon.” Bach commented on Instagram:
“COMING SOON: ‘She Gets Me High’ by @rundmc @dmcmakescomics @kingdmc with ME on vocals 🎤 @mr.mickmars from #MotleyCrue on Guitar 🎸 @duffmckagan from #GunsNRoses on Bass 🎻 and @travisbarker from @blink182 on the Drums 🥁 the song is a remake of Black Betty by Ram Jam and it kicks complete and total ass in every way!! I CANT WAIT FOR YOU ALL TO CRANK THIS UP!!!!! Check out the new article from @spinmag in Stories!!!!”
Blink-182 singer/bassist Mark Hoppus has revealed that he is now “cancer free.” The good news comes after the musician previously underwent chemo after being diagnosed with stage 4-A Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Hoppus issued the following statement:
“Just saw my oncologist and I’m cancer free!! Thank God and universe and friends and family and everyone who sent support and kindness and love. Still have to get scanned every six months and it’ll take me until the end of the year to get back to normal, but today is an amazing day and I feel so blessed. Can I get a W in the chat?”
As previously reported, Machine Gun Kelly recently made headlines after blasting Slipknot by calling them “old weird dudes with masks” onstage at the 2021 Riot Fest in Chicago, IL. Now, the rapper turned rocker has apparently decided to keep the feud going on social media.
“Corey [Taylor] did a verse for a song on tickets to my downfall album, it was fucking terrible, so i didn’t use it. he got mad about it, and talked shit to a magazine about the same album he was almost on. yalls stories are all off. just admit he’s bitter.”
“I don’t like people airing private shit like a child. So this is all I’ll say: I didn’t do the track because I don’t like when people try to ‘write’ for me. I said NO to THEM. So without further ado…. #receipts This is all I’m going to say about it.”
The receipts Taylor mentioned are emails between him and Machine Gun Kelly’s “Tickets To My Downfall” collaborator Travis Barker (Blink-182), which you can find below:
“basically, your verse was really bad. respectfully, i was just telling you to rewrite it because it was really bad. respectfully. 😕 but let’s do a britney spears song cover together 🤘🏼”
Atreyu have released a new remix of their song “Warrior.” The track, which features Travis Barker (Blink-182) and Zero 9:36, can be streamed below. The original version of the song is from the band‘s latest album “Baptize.” Atreyu said the following about the remix:
“‘Warrior‘ has been a beast of a track since its release. It’s been such an amazing thing watching it grow and connect with the people. The time has come for a fresh take. Enter Zero 9:36. Same great ‘Warrior‘ taste. New and improved ‘Warrior‘ flavor.”
“Scans indicate that the chemo is working! I still have months of treatment ahead, but it’s the best possible news. I’m so grateful and confused and also sick from last week’s chemo. But the poison the doctors pump into me and the kind thoughts and wishes of people around me are destroying this cancer. Just gotta keep fighting…”
During a recent livestream on Twitch, Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus further opened up about his battle with cancer. The musician also revealed that he was diagnosed with stage 4-A Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, which is the same type of cancer his mother previously beat.
Hoppus said the following:
“It’s entered enough parts of my body that I’m stage 4, which is, I think the highest that it goes.”
He also discussed an upcoming PET scan, which will reveal if his chemotherapy treatments are working:
“Ideally I go in tomorrow and they say, ‘Congratulations! Your chemotherapy has worked and you are all done and you’ll never have to think about this cancer again for the rest of your life.’ Even if the cancer’s totally gone from my whole body, they give me three more rounds of chemo just to make sure.”
Hoppus went on to describe the side effects that the chemotherapy has had on him:
“The first chemo, I felt like I was a zombie that fell onto an electric fence and was just being shocked… The second round of chemo, I just felt very weak and tired. Really just like the worst flu ever. The third round of chemo, I started retching. Nauseous and that whole thing.”
“Let me tell you something that is real, and it absolutely sucks — a side effect of the chemotherapy is you get something called ‘chemo brain.’ And for me, I forget things that I just should have on call like people’s names, song titles, anything.”
Despite his diagnosis, the musician says he is trying to remain positive:
“We’re beating this cancer. It’s just a matter of time.”
As previously reported, Blink-182’s Mark Hoppus recently revealed that he is currently battling cancer. Now, the musician has shared a new health update via Twitter:
Apologies if I’m oversharing but it’s so surreal to think that this week I’ll take a test that may very well determine if I live or die. Thanks to everyone for the positive thoughts and encouragement. I read all your replies and it means the world to me. Thank you. 🙏🏻 I’m going
to beat this through chemotherapy or through bone marrow transplants, but either way I’m determined to kick cancer’s ass directly in the nuts. Love to you all. Let’s. Heckin. Go. pic.twitter.com/6ih3AEJq7y
