ANTHRAX Is Working On ‘Faster And Riffier’ New Album
In a new interview with Terry “Beez” Bezer of Knotfest.com‘s “Mosh Talks With Beez”, ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian spoke about the progress of the songwriting sessions for the band’s follow-up to 2016’s “For All Kings” album. “We started writing new ANTHRAX last year — obviously, without a crystal ball knowing what was going to happen in the world, but with the intent of having a record out this year,” he said (see video below). “Obviously, that’s not happening now. So we’re still writing — we’re still working on it. The COVID has obviously put a crimp in our plans, because we can’t just get together and jam when we want to, and traveling has become not so easy, and all of that. So we’ve jus...
BURNING POOLS Feat. Former SMASHING PUMPKINS Bassist GINGER POOLEY: ‘Bang Bang’ Music Video
BURNING POOLS, the rock trio led by former SMASHING PUMPKINS bassist Ginger Pooley, has released the official music video for its latest single, “Bang Bang”. BURNING POOLS has been long in the making. Ginger and husband Kristopher Pooley had been demoing songs showcasing Ginger‘s penchant for empowering protest lyrics clothed in pop hooks, when they decided to reach out to guitarist Max Bernstein. He promptly added some tracks with a sub-octave fuzz permanently in the “on” position. Instantly, the three decided that Kris (a keyboard player by trade) would dust off his drum kit as this was not a synth operation — and a band was born. BURNING POOLS‘ three members share a long list of studio and touring credits and collectively have worked with rock legends...

Source: Peathegee Inc / Getty Adult entertainment has always thrived in the online realm, but the fast money and swift returns of traditional strip clubs are unmatched in this regard. With the COVID-19 pandemic all but upending brick and mortar business traffic, a quarter of dancers took matters into their own hands and launched a lucrative online venture. The Los Angeles Times profiled dancers Gabrielle, Reagan, Coco Ono and Kitty, the Stripperina, all of whom worked at Jumbo’s Clown Room, a popular strip joint in Los Angeles’ East Hollywood district.

Mariah Carey’s Engineer on Secret Alt-Rock Album: ‘It Was All Very Spontaneous’
By this point, we all know about Mariah Carey’s secret 1995 alt-rock album, which she finally revealed in her memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey. But now the engineer of Chick’s Someone’s Ugly Daughter —the name and album title Mimi recorded as — has something to say. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Carey’s longtime engineer Dana Jon Chappelle opened up about the Daydream-era side project and what exactly went into it. “It was all very spontaneous and impromptu,” Chappelle said. “She didn’t want a lot of effort going into it… A lot of times, she’d write a song out and lyrically she’d be done in 10, 15 minutes. She’d sit there on a pad and knock out lyrics or ideas and then finish them another day.” Chappelle said that the record was an afterthought when recording th...
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune Gets Delayed Until Late 2021
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune practically broke the Internet last month when the epic first trailer was revealed. But now, that hype will have to stretch another year, as the sci-fi blockbuster has been delayed until October 1st, 2021, reports Collider. That’s a significantly later date than Warner Bros. originally planned, which suggests two things: executives’ hearts are set on a fourth quarter release, the pandemic isn’t loosening its grip anytime soon, or both. While a handful of North American movie theaters have been cautiously reopening in recent months, the latest increase in COVID-19 cases has caused many to shutter their doors once again. While Frank Herbert’s beloved novel and its historically troubled feature films never fared well at the box office, Villeneuve’s Dune adaption seems ...

The long-lost album amazingly features many of the same guests promised in 2012, including JAY-Z and The-Dre...
