Leave a comment

Rollingstone magazine spoke with James Hetfield about the new Metallica album at Flea’s benefit show. James hinted in the interview that the band is bringing their past sound in their music today by describing the new album, “The direction is embracing our past in the now”.

From the clips I’ve heard of a new song in the “Mission: Metallica” website, it did kind of sound 80’s speed metal pretty damn close to it.

After the bomb of “St. Anger”, I think the band will get huge and successful again like they once were in the 80’s and early 90’s during the Black album days. I think the band want to get out of their “alternative” rock sound and go back to what they were before, a metal band. Hetfield just revealed that in the interview.

They need their metal and heavy sound back. They need their old fans back. I’m already feeling that their next album will be the best since the Black album.

Thought: Is Billy Ray Cyrus using his daughter to get his own music career successful again?

Leave a comment

With all this talk of Miley Cyrus becoming the next biggest star in the world pretty quickly, I have came to a conclusion of something that I had never thought of before. Billy Ray Cyrus, hasn’t had a hit album since “Some Gave All” a multi-platinum album that was a big hit back in 1992. That was the only album that I know of that had a big hit in his career. Billy Ray never had a successful music career ever since that album.

Now he is set to host “Nashville Star” this year thanks to his daughter Miley Cyrus. Soon Billy Ray will once again become the next biggest mega star of the world like he once was in ’92, and not Miley Cyrus. I see Miley’s career being held down with all this sex photos talk with her in the media lately because of Billy Ray’s success recently.

If Billy Ray’s daughter was never this big and famous, then no one would care about Billy Ray Cyrus and wouldn’t be hosting “Nashville Star”.

If you think and read between the lines, you’ll soon start to see that Billy Ray is using Miley Cyrus for his own fame. You’re welcome.

Report: Whitesnake claims tour with Led Zeppelin…

Leave a comment

David Coverdale’s longtime band Whitesnake claims they are planning to go on tour with Led Zeppelin. First the Foo Fighters, then the Velvet Revolver, then the Stone Temple Pilots, and god knows what other bands has brought up shit to tour with Led Zep.

David Coverdale and Jimmy Page both released an album together titled “Coverdale/Page” released back in 1993.

Blabbermouth.net reports:

I wish these famous bands would stop bringing up rumours of Led Zeppelin touring. Just goes to show that these bands has gigantic egos as well.

Led Zeppelin has denied a world tour ever since the O2 show last year. They still seem to be ignoring a possibility of a tour today as well.

I don’t think Led Zeppelin will tour! It is all up to the band if they want to! Get the hell over it people!

Report: Actor Joaquin Phoenix to release his first music album…

Leave a comment

Actor Joaquin Phoenix who starred in movies such as “Walk the Line”, “Ladder 49”, “We Own the Night” etc. is about to begin work on his debut solo album. Actually, Joaquin already did come out with an album which is the “Walk the Line” soundtrack which he sang and played the guitar on all the songs on, but Joaquin wants to write his own songs. Before “Walk the Line”, Joaquin just started lessons and training with singing and playing the guitar for his role as Johnny Cash in “Walk the Line”. Joaquin’s writing partners for the album say that this album could take forever to release ’cause Joaquin is pretty picky with the songs trying to make sure that this album will be a real good one.

More on it here:

Joaquin wanting to put out an album didn’t come as a surprise to me. Since he just became a musician for “Walk the Line”, it is no secret he would become a musician full time.

I thought he sounded pretty good for “Walk the Line” and will be looking forward to his album.

Stop watching A.I., America! The lower the ratings get, the good chances of A.I. will finally be getting cancelled and getting off our TV screens!

Report: Death Cab For Cutie makes career mistake by making major label debut…

4 Comments

The talented Death Cab For Cutie makes a career mistake by making a jump from small indie label to a major label by getting signed to Atlantic Records. Their new record “Narrow Stairs” is now out in stores…

http://www.deathcabforcutie.com/news/?CAKEPHP=e50e79e312cffe7e11322ca7e4bad728

Great band, talented songwriters, but I don’t know if I’ll appreciate them anymore now that they are major. I hope they do the smart thing by dropping off major labels and going back to their indie roots.

The same can be said to my favorite songwriter Mason Jennings.

What makes these indie artists want to go from indie label to major when everyone knows how bad and terrible the industry is today?
