MARK SLAUGHTER Says Grunge Didn’t Kill Hard Rock In 1990s; ‘People In The Business’ Did
SLAUGHTER frontman Mark Slaughter recently spoke to 80’s Metal Recycle Bin about how the rise of grunge in the early 1990s forced most hard rock bands off the radio and MTV, with album and tour sales plummeting. “The grunge thing, I think, was a natural course of many events,” he explained (see video below). “A lot of people are, like, ‘Grunge killed this.’ It wasn’t that. I think there was a lot of bands that became a lot of industry that was creating these bands that was not what the bands were. I mean, it was, like, they’d sign the band, then they’d get get a writer, a producer, and these people, and those songwriters and those people, and those hair stylists and those people, and by the time they were done, the band they signed was ...
Nandi Bushell Covers My Chemical Romance’s “Welcome To The Black Parade”: Watch
Nandi Bushell has entered her emo phase. The 10-year-old drumming sensation has shared an impeccable cover of My Chemical Romance’s 2006 anthem, “Welcome To The Black Parade”. After initially going viral with a stunning Queens of the Stone Age cover in January 2020, the precocious Englishmulti-instrumentalist has banged out equally masterful renditions of songs from Metallica, Rage Against The Machine, Muse, Blur, and most recently Led Zeppelin. Today, Bushell is moving past the classic rock staples and fully embracing the mid-2000s emo songbook. And not only does she do incredible justice to this rock-opera-banger in a musical sense, but she’s also dressed in a marching band uniform that calls back to the attire MCR rocked at the time. “I love being able to let out all my energy after a s...

Sheila E. (photo via Wikipedia) and Prince (photo via Warner Bros.) Sheila E. has announced that she’s making a biopic about her relationship with Prince.

The First ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ Trailer Teases A Worldstar Fight of Epic Proportions
Source: Warner Bros / Legendary Entertainment The trailer for Godzilla vs. Kong has finally arrived, and the fades look like they will be on a massive scale. To quote the late Dr. Serizawa (Ken Watanabe), who valiantly sacrificed his life in Godzilla: King of The Monsters, “let them fight.” After being delayed for nearly a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Godzilla vs. Kong is upon us, and it looks like it will deliver the epic showdown that Legendary Entertainment has been foreshadowing since it started its “Monsterverse.” The film will primarily feature literally two of the biggest stars in Hollywood duking it out. It will premiere simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max as part of the deal that saw blockbusters like Wonder Woman 84, Mortal Kombat, and Godzilla vs. Kong lan...

Burning Man 2021 Still in Limbo, Organizers Promise Official Update in February
While nothing compares to summertime in Black Rock City, the definitive status of Burning Man 2021 has yet to materialize, despite a successful November fundraising campaign that crowdsourced over $5 million to keep the dream alive. A January 21st update from Dominique Debucquoy-Dodley, Burning Man Project’s Associate Director of Communications, revealed that due to the uncertainty of the impact of COVID-19 in the future, “it’s impossible to say right now if Black Rock City can happen in 2021.” “Public health and safety is our top priority,” Debucquoy-Dodley continued. “We will only inhabit Black Rock City with the appropriate safety protocols and permits in place.” He also promised that more conclusive information will be announced ...
NGHTMRE Says Debut Album is like His First EP “On Steroids”
In early 2020, NGHTMRE shared that he was working on his debut album. The body of work has not yet graced the airwaves, but his recent update gives fans reason to be very excited.

KISS’s PAUL STANLEY: ‘To Me, Life Is A Miracle On Its Worst Day’
KISS frontman Paul Stanley was a recent guest on “Dennis Miller +1”, an interview show hosted by American actor, comedian, talk show host and five-time Emmy award winner Dennis Miller. You can now listen to the chat below. Speaking about rock stars who make self-destructive behavior a part of their brand, Stanley said (hear audio below): “Unfortunately, I think that the press, the media, critics are responsible for some of that, because somehow not caring about business, not caring about your health, living this rock and roll caricature is what credibility is based on for some. And it’s unfortunate, because it kills the rock star, but the critic continues. So it just never made sense to me. I wanna enjoy the hard work, I wanna enjoy the fruits of the labor, so to sp...
TED NUGENT Predicts ‘Manufactured Fake Racism’ Will Become ‘The #1 Issue In America’ Under PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN

MICHAEL SCHENKER On His Brother RUDOLF: He ‘Is A Bully, And I Don’t Connect With Bullies’
In a new interview with Spain’s Metal Journal, legendary German guitarist Michael Shenker was asked if he thought about approaching his former SCORPIONS bandmate Klaus Meine to contribute his vocals to a reworked version of the SCORPIONS song “In Search Of The Peace Of Mind“, which appears on “Immortal”, the upcoming album from MSG (MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP). Michael responded (hear audio below): “Because Klaus and I, we started COPERNICUS before we joined the SCORPIONS, I always tried to [entertain] the idea of doing something with Klaus [again]. But over the years, my brother Rudolf [Schenker, SCORPIONS guitarist] has become — he’s just simply a bully.” He continued: “I’m 66; [Rudolf is] seven years older. By him not giving me the...
