Not So Quick June Re-cap.

What? One lousy update yesterday? Yeah, I know. That’s not like me but I had a few things in order that I had to take care of last night. So let’s go over June really quick.

I went to see Dark Tranquility, Divine Heresy, Firewind and Soldiers Of Scrape on the Tyranny And Bloodshred tour…minus the tyranny. That was a bad ass show. I’ll announce the winner of the autographed Bleed The Fifth CD tonight.

Withered’s new album Folie Circulaire came out on the 17th, an extremely heavy and noisy album to say the least, but it’s one of those that just grows on you.

Judas Priesthad as saying Jesus Christ! with Nostradamus While it wasn’t the Priest we know, it was a concept album that I don’t think anyone was really ready for. Great musically, but unlike Priest.

Motley Crue graced us with an album that had me wanting a small part of my life back. That part being the time I spent listening to the Saints Of Los Angeles.

Slipknot released a free single in the title track of their upcoming album All Hope Is Gone. A lot of people are looking forward to the release of the new Album, to include myself. If you want the single now you will have to buy it…or download it from someone else who already has it.

Metallica announced the new titleof their upcoming CD will be Death Magnetic and hopefull it won’t be Crap Magnetic and I did my own spin on it before hand.

TriviumAlso announced the title of their new cd, Shogun…do-mo arigato Mr. Roboto!

Himsa anounced their last show and their disbanding.

Testament won Album Of The Year at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards

Light This City anounced that they are calling it quits and disappoint a shitload of people.

I started adding Metallica vinyl reissues to my collection even though I talk so much trash about them.

I gave a little piece of advice to Artist that try to retaliate against Blabbermouth trash talkers.

I took on a new Blog in The Rock Dose, a rock themed blog. Check It out some time.

I held a voting poll to see what people thought was Metallica’s Best Realease…it was almost scary!

Kiss says they are going to keep the marketing torch a blazing with an all new line-up of band in the future.

Twisted Sister announce they are taking the show to…BROADWAY?

Lastly, Disturbed released Indestructiblewhich sold a crap load of cd’s. I think people were pretty surprised that so many people actually dug them…or maybe it was The Dillinger Escape Plan that bought them all up?

That was about the important stuff that went on this month here. I hate going back through things and finding spelling and typing errors, but hell, I’m only human. I can’t wait to see what July has in store for us. Keep an eye out for a new contest for Metal Martyr’s 1 year anniversary!
