Metal Shavings 4/9
Off to a late start tonight. Here is some significant metal news of the day. I’m linking to News from Blabbermouth.net for the most part.
- It looks like Down will be joining Metallica and The Sword on the
- Metal Hammer Magazine has announced their Metal Gods Nominees here
- Celtic Frost is pretty much done after the departure of Singer/Guitarist Tom Gabriel Fischer left the band due to some crazy ass irreconcilable differences, it sounds like a damn divorce litigation.
- Dethklok and Chimaira will be doing summer tour. Rumor has it that Chimaira will be opening for Dethklok so sorry, you’ll have to sit through that to see Dethklok.
- Dino Cazeres shot down any rumors of a Fear Factory reunion after being seen talking to Burton C. Bell and says everything is good with Divine Heresy and he’s proud of his newfound band’s success.
- If anyone gives a shit, Tom Morello is being awfully silent about further Rage Against The Machine studio rumors. Let me guess…they are going to scream about more political views, oppression and corrupt law enforcement. ZZZZZZZ
Sweet! DethKlok and Chimaira doing a tour would be awesome. Of course, I’d probably go for Dethklok, but Chimaira would be an added bonus. “Pure Hatred” is still one of my favorite songs.
