DISTURBED frontman David Draiman lit a candle at the Western Wall in Jerusalem, Israel earlier today (Tuesday, November 30) at the Old City site of the terror attack that killed South African immigrant Eli Kay. Draiman, who is Jewish, took to his Instagram to share a few photos of his appearance, and included the following message: “A truly wonderful experience. Thanks so much to everyone who came out!” Last week, Draiman told The Jerusalem Post that he wanted to make a statement by coming to Israel after seeing the coverage of the attack in which a Hamas gunman opened fire on pedestrians in the Old City. “The coverage was reprehensible in the vast majority of American and European media,” Draiman said. “It’s scandalous how they presented it. Headlines l...

Ted Nugent has praised jurors who cleared Kyle Rittenhouse on the five charges against him — ranging from intentional homicide to reckless homicide to reckless endangerment — saying that “the most pure, righteous instinct and right to self-defense” was supported. Rittenhouse fatally shot two people and wounded a third during a night of unrest in Kenosha, Wisconsin last year following the police shooting of Jacob Blake. Rittenhouse was acquitted on all five counts less than two weeks ago after a jury deliberated for 27 hours over the course of four days. Nugent addressed the Ritenhouse verdict during his first post-Thanksgiving YouTube livestream on Monday (November 29). He said in part (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “Now is the time to optimize the thankfulness for...

RATING: 8/10 As someone wise once said: everybody loves AC/DC, don’t they? In fact, not liking AC/DC is usually a sign of some deep-seated, twisted desire to spoil everybody else’s fun. Regardless of where you elect to sit on the rock-to-metal spectrum, AC/DC are indelibly etched into the culture. Everybody loves AC/DC. That’s a rock fact, and you are welcome to it. Of course, tribute albums are a slightly trickier deal. For every heartfelt and worthwhile salute to a legendary band or album, there are many, many terrible tribute albums full of half-baked plods through cherished tunes. Fortunately, Magnetic Eye Records have excellent form when it comes to such things, and just like their all-star honoring of BLACK SABBATH, PINK FLOYD, HELMET and ALICE IN CHAINS, these mult...
