Ex-OZZY OSBOURNE Guitarist GUS G. To Release Instrumental Solo Album ‘Quantum Leap’ In October
Greek guitar virtuoso Gus G., well known in rock and metal circles for his work as Ozzy Osbourne‘s guitarist and as leader of his own band FIREWIND, will release a new solo album, “Quantum Leap”, in October via AFM Records. Gus discussed the upcoming effort in a new video message posted to his YouTube channel. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “It’s my first all-instrumental solo album. So this means there’s no vocals at all, no guest singers; it’s just me and my guitar. You’ve already heard a couple of the singles. The first one was called ‘Exosphere’; it came out in April. And the second one was called ‘Fierce’, which we made a pretty hilarious video for. I hope you checked it out. There’s gonna be ...
LACUNA COIL’s CRISTINA SCABBIA: What I Miss The Most About Touring
In a brand new interview with Alicia Atout, LACUNA COIL singer Cristina Scabbia was asked what she misses the most about touring while she is spending time at home during the pandemic. She responded (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “I just miss the traveling. Because the traveling includes everything — meeting fans, playing shows, discovering new cultures, meeting new people. And it’s what kept the fuel of LACUNA COIL alive so far, because we write about life experiences. And if you don’t get to experience things in life, where do you get your inspiration? I mean, it’s not the same for me to stay home, even if I read books or watch movies, it’s not the same thing as real living. So that’s what I miss the most — human touch, human contact, conversati...
TIIT – SUN OF THE SUNS
RATING: 8/10 While the term “modern metal” seems to have become conversational shorthand, among the half-hearted, for “don’t panic, it doesn’t sound like SAXON!”, there are still a few emerging bands that genuinely fit the bill. SUN OF THE SUNS are a box-fresh, tech-metal trio from Italy, featuring former members of esteemed deathcore crew THE MODERN AGE SLAVERY and underrated tech-death mob CARNALITY, and powered along here by FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE drummer Francesco Paoli. Not surprisingly, given that collective pedigree, “TIIT” is an absolute psycho-robot pummeling of a record. Steeped in the metal futurism of everyone from FEAR FACTORY and STRAPPING YOUNG LAD to MESHUGGAH and VILDHJARTA, these songs skitter from elaborate technical death met...
Dan + Shay Show Off Their Dance Moves in ‘Steal My Love’ Video

Dan + Shay first premiered the “Steal My Love” video exclusively on Facebook. The song was penned by Smyers with Andy Albert, Ashley Gorley and Jordan Reynolds. (Reynolds was also a co-writer on Dan + Shay’s 2018 hit “Tequila.”) “Steal My Love” is from the duo’s fourth studio album Good Things, which came out Friday and became the first country album of the streaming era to earn RIAA gold status on the day of its release. Meanwhile, the album...

Johnny Depp’s Libel Suit Against Amber Heard Will Proceed Despite U.K. Ruling
In the U.K., the actor sued over an article that had called him a “wife beater.” After a trial that lasted weeks, Judge Andrew Nicol found substantial truth to the article in The Sun, specifically with regards to 14 incidents that happened during the troubled marriage. The ruling, which Depp was unsuccessful in overturning on appeal, left him in the atypical position of arguing he didn’t get everything he wanted in the country, which has long been known for libel tourism since the burden of proof is on defendant and public figures needn’t show actual malice. In turn, Heard argued that the Virginia court should recognize the U.K. judgment, and since both actions centered on whether Depp was a domestic abuser, declare the matter already adjudicated. In an opinion on Tuesday, Fairfax County C...

Tennis Champ Naomi Osaka Breaks Down In Tears After Triggering Question From Reporter
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Xinhua News Agency / Getty Top-ranked tennis star Naomi Osaka held her first press conference since withdrawing from the French Open three months ago citing her mental health struggles connected to speaking with the media. During a media conference on Zoom at the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati on Monday Osaka didn’t fare well as she became tearfully upset when a journalist from the Cincinnati Enquirer asked her a question about her recent dealings with reporters. “You’re not crazy about dealing with us, especially in this format, yet you have a lot of outside interests that are served by having a media platform. I guess my question is, how do you balance the two?” Cincinnati Enquirer reporter Paul Daughtery asked. “When you say I’m no...
