Yikes!

I don't know where this came from... but Tommy Lee decided to tweet some old anger about Lars Ulrich the other day. Not too classy.

Reckless Love, 'Keep It Up All Night' -- New Song

Finnish Glam rockers Reckless Love have a new song out called "Keep It Up All Night." Too bad the song is more pop and less Glam. Opinions?

Queensryche Release 'Hellfire' -- New Track

Queensryche will release Condition Human on October 2. Another new track, this one called "Hellfire" is available now for streaming. The track is surprisingly heavy and really sounds like the Queensryche we all know. Thoughts?

Ugly Kid Joe, 'She's Already Gone'

Ugly Kid Joe will release Uglier Than They Used Ta Be on October 16th. Now the song "She's Already Gone" is available for streaming. It's about what I expected... and sounds just like modern rock. Take that however you wish. What do you think?

Saxon Comes To Dayton; My Interview

Saxon is coming to Dayton, Ohio this Saturday night. I interviewed singer Biff Byford in advance of the show. Here's some of that interview and you can read the rest on the Dayton City Paper website.  


We are a live band… no click tracks running with Saxon so I suppose [the stage] is where we like to be!” says Biff Byford, Saxon frontman, of his band’s current North American tour. The British rockers will perform at Oddbody’s on Saturday, Sept. 19. Fellow metal legends Armored Saint are also on the tour and will provide direct support.

Saxon is on the road behind its upcoming effort Battering Ram. A battering ram is a giant contraption from ancient times that is designed to bust through fortified walls. Basically, it’s a tool to break big things.

The band matched its metal sounding album title with the tracks on their new release. For Battering Ram, Saxon is back to basics, with “less rock and more heavy” as Byford is quoted saying of the upcoming record.

“The new album is still quite melodic, but I think the guitar parts are more focused not so much moving around from rock to metal,” Byford tells Dayton City Paper.
