Scrap Metal Report 2/10/2009

A slight case of sleeplessness brings you this early edition of the Scrap Metal Report today. Just a few things to run down in the news.

God Forbid are streaming their entire new record, Earthsblood on their Myspace. Earthsblood sees it’s release on century Media on February 24th.

Hatebreed guitarist Sean Martin has decided to resign from his duties in the Connecticut hardcore band. No details on the circumstances of is decision but there doesn’t seem to be any bad blood. Original guitarist Wayne Lozinak will step back in to the band to fill Sean’s vacant spot.

Tool Guitarist Adam Jones and Bass player Justin Chancellor have started to write new material for the follow up to 2006’s 10,000 Days. No word yet on any estimated time frame for that release.

Iron Maiden’s last show of their Somewhere Back In Time World Tour 2008/’09 will be at Ft. Lauderdale Florida. This will close out this epic tour and will be the first time Maiden has played in Florida in 13 years.

Lastly, I have 2 pairs of tickets for Scion Rock Fest for February 28th in Atlanta, Georgia and only one request so far. I have to close this out at the end of the day, so if you want to go visit here and put your name in the hat.

Check back throughout the day for more updates.
