LAMB OF GOD’s RANDY BLYTHE On Touring During Pandemic: ‘We’re Just Trying To Survive This Thing’
LAMB OF GOD frontman Randy Blythe spoke to Meltdown of Detroit’s WRIF radio station about what it’s been like to return to the road as part of “The Metal Tour Of The Year” with MEGADETH, TRIVIUM and HATEBREED. “It’s awesome,” he said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET). “It’s been since February 14th, 2020 since we played a show, and that was the only show we played in 2020, and we hadn’t toured in two years. It’s awesome. It’s an interesting time.” According to Blythe, not being able to play live in 2020 was a “weird” experience. “Because we put out a record that came out last summer — a little over a year ago; I believe it came out in June 2020,” he said. “And we tour so much, so ...

AGNOSTIC FRONT’s ROGER MIRET Reveals His Cancer Is In Remission
Earlier this year, AGNOSTIC FRONT vocalist Roger Miret was diagnosed with cancer. A long road of tests and diagnoses led to a complex surgery and lengthy hospital stay. Even though the surgery was complicated, the results were extremely positive. The cancer was successfully removed and Roger is now in complete remission and all signs of cancer have disappeared. With the joy of knowing that Roger is now cancer free also comes the bitter reality of months of treatment and Roger and his family are dealing with the financial backlash of a cancer diagnosis. A GoFundMe page has been launched where fans can donate to help Roger pay medical care costs. Says the band: “Today we are calling upon our beloved worldwide music scene, friends and family to please share this fundraiser and donate wh...

Artists Reflect on 20 Years of The Strokes’ Is This It
The release of The Strokes’ landmark debut album, Is This It, was anything but smooth, but once it made its way into the hands of rock fans, its impact was profound. After a staggered international release of the album beginning in August 2001, Is This It was set to arrive in the United States on September 11th on vinyl and September 25th on the then-more-popular CD format. For the US release, the cover artwork was changed from a woman’s naked hip and rear end to the less-risque image of subatomic particle tracks. While the vinyl did come out on September 11th as planned, that day’s horrific terrorist attacks forced the New York band and its label to rethink the release of the CD. The scathing tune “New York City Cops” was dropped from the tracklist of the CD version in the wake of the her...
Syd Drops New Single “Right Track” Featuring Smino: Stream
Back in February, Syd returned with her first solo music in nearly four years. The Internet member has been keeping herself busy since, leading up to today’s release of her new single “Right Track,” which features vocals from Smino. Stream it below. “Right Track” is a love song that stays true to Syd’s usual laidback R&B groove. Backed by a fluttering, Latin-influenced guitar riff, the track details the beginnings of a relationship that’s going well, and the excitement of taking things to the next step. “Everything feels so right, don’t you love it when things go right?” Syd coos in the bridge. “Now can somebody tell me why you would fight that?” Along with the new single, Syd has also announced her only show of 2021, where she’ll take the stage with the LA Philharmonic at The Ford on ...
Saudade Cover Joy Division’s “Day of the Lords” with Lamb of God’s Randy Blythe: Stream
Lamb of God singer Randy Blythe has teamed up with Saudade for a cover of Joy Division‘s “Day of the Lords.” Billed as a “creepy” rendition of an already haunting song, Saudade heavy it up with a smattering of instruments (guitars, steel drums, organ, synths, etc). Meanwhile, Blythe lays down his vocals with reverence to the song’s original singer, the late Ian Curtis. “I’ve always wanted to cover ‘Day of the Lords,’” remarked Blythe in a press release. “In my opinion, it is the heaviest of Joy Division’s songs. With Saudade, we have such a widely-varied pool of musical backgrounds to draw from that I knew we could add some interesting sonic layers to the tune while honoring the original.” Advertisement Related Video Saudade are led by Chuck Doom (Crosses, Team Sleep) and drummer Gil ...

K. Michelle Says She Won’t Get The Vaccine Due To Butt Implant Residue
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Louis / Getty Of the millions of people who refuse to get the COVID-19 vaccine, many excuses have been made and heard from tracking devices in the shots to not wanting to give Joe Biden any help, but K. Michelle has given a particularly original excuse for not getting vaccinated. According to Madamenoire, the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta and singer star took to her Instagram Live to explain that due to her butt implants (we thought that was the result of pure cornbread eating?!), she’s refraining from getting the vaccine as it doesn’t mix well with the silicone in her physical degree. Even though she’s had her butt implants removed, Michelle says that she still has some silicone left in her body that might have an adverse reaction to the vaccine sho...
