Yeah, yeah, yeah, Metallica are getting inducted in to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame this coming week. We get it, already. My question is; what metal band do you think should be inducted in the Rock & Roll hall Of Fame?
Off of the top of my head I can think of two bands that should get inducted, well before Metallica, such as Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. There are other bands that I’d like to see get inducted…after the previously mentioned bands. I don’t want to see Dave Mustaine inducted under Metallica. He deserves to be inducted for …read more

As Alex [Rochon] pointed out in my post from yesterday about the Argentinean band, Tren Loco, their cover of their newest album Veins Of Steel draws a huge resemblance of Motörhead’s Orgasmatron album. I don’t think that it’s so much of a parody as maybe a tribute to Motörhead.
 
This reminded me of how much I love Sepultura’s cover of the Motorhead original from the Dead Embryonic Cells single. This song has been covered by various metal bands to include Satyricon. Here is Sepultura performing the song live in Barcelona, Spain.

How cool is that? Guitar Hero: Metallica will feature Motorhead’s Lemmy Kilmister as an unlockable character. Spinner.com reports:
Gamers will have the option to either watch Lemmy’s in-game likeness as he hammers away at his bass and sings in his signature, whiskey-drenched vocals, or they can step into his cowboy boots and learn to play Motörhead’s 2008 re-recorded version of their biggest hit, the anthemic ‘Ace of Spades.’
That’s pretty cool. I mean, there are plenty of people I would like to see on Guitar Hero: Metallica that I never will, so this is cool. I wonder if you can only use …read more

As reported by Antimusic.com, The Misfits have pulled out of the Volcom tour with Motorhead, Valient Thor and Airbourne. Antimusic said they were waiting on The Misfits PR to get back to them with a reason but have yet to publish one. All That was said was this short statement by the only original member left in the band, Jerry Only:
“The Misfits have always held an incredibly high standard of performance and quality in everything we do. Our fans expect this and deserve it. I will not compromise their expectations for any amount of money, prestige …read more

Aaron Lefkove over at Gibson.com wrote up an breif article of heavy metal’s power trios. Not many, only 5 hear, but there is a link to check out more namely power trios from a previous article.
Some of the bands he names are Wolfmother, Budgie, Motorhead, Boris, and Venom. Giving a little insight on each band and their sounds.
I saw this Boris video last night on Headbanger’s Ball and I was extremely bored with not only the music but the video as well. And something creeps me out about the look on the guitarist face. She’s got an angry, ‘cheat on …read more

Ultimate-guitar.com reported :

Legendary hard rock band Motorhead has finished recording its new album, entitled “Motörize“, due before the end of the year via SPV Records. The follow-up to 2006’s “Kiss of Death” was recorded at Foo Fighters frontman/ex-Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl’s Studio 606 in Northridge, California.
I dig some of the older Motorhead tunes and I bought Overnight Sensation a long time ago but I just can’t really get into the new Motorhead stuff or perhaps I just haven’t heard enough. Maybe I’ll give Overnight Sensation another listen. It’s been over 10 years, maybe I’ll like it.

I’m not a heroin addict, lower class living where I grew up wasn’t that bad, my parents were good to me and my life has not all been that bad. It’s had some rocky points in it but overall I can’t complain because others have had it much worse. So the soundtrack of my day (yet another list day here at b5Media) goes something like this.
Starting yesterday up until now this is what I’ve been listening to.

Children Of Bodom: Needled 24/7. I was listening to this yesterday doing yardwork when I accidentally ran over a little tiny bunny with the lawnmower. …read more
