I’m not embedding all the videos this week. I have a nasty head cold and it’s killing me, but I felt that I should at least post one more thing today, so here is the list of tonight’s Headbanger’s Ball videos. This is complete B.S. if you ask me. It’s starting to become TRL (which I’m told is being canceled. Hold the applause) in the way that it’s mostly the same videos as last week. They seriously need to show a much better variety every week. People are getting sick of watching the same damn show every week.

• Unleashed - “Black Horizon”
• The Sword - “Fire Lances of the Ancient Hyperzephyrians”
• The Human Abstract - “Procession of the Fates”
• Children Of Bodom - “Smile Pretty For The Devil”
• Toxic Holocaust - “Wild Dogs”
• All That Remains - “Chiron”
• In Flames - “Alias”
• Avenged Sevenfold - “Unholy Confessions”
• Ratt - “Back For More”
• Five Finger Death Punch - “The Way Of The Fist”

Headbangersblog.com announced earlier that this is the first time that they have had a draw with their voting system for the return video. The draw was between The Sword’s Firelances video and Underoath’s Desperate Times video. Not a bad looking line up, with the exception of Static X.

• IN FLAMES - ALIAS
• CARNIFEX - ANSWERS IN MOURNING
• SLIPKNOT - PSYCHOSOCIAL
• HATEBREED - I WILL BE HEARD (live)
• UNDEROATH - DESPERATE TIMES, DESPERATE MEASURES
• STATIC X - PUSH IT
• SHADOWS FALL - FOREVERMORE
• CANCER BATS - HAIL DESTROYER
• MISERY SIGNALS - A CERTAIN DEATH
• THE RED CHORD - DREAD PREVAILED
• THE SWORD - FIRE LANCES OF THE ANCIENT HYPERZEPHYRIANS

Not much going on tonight’s HBB in my opinion. You got the Arsis video, the HBB debut of Shadows Fall’s Forevermore, other than that I’m not really impressed with the list…and AC/DC Thunderstruck? Yeah, it’s one of their heaviest tunes I guess. If you miss it I will try my Damndest to get all the videos up here tomorrow and like before you can choose the ones you want to see with no commercials. Maybe I’ll start my own Saturday evening video block of shit I choose. That’s not a bad idea~

TERROR - NEVER ALONE 
SOULFLY - UNLEASH
MUNICIPAL WASTE - SADISTIC MAGICIAN
BORIS - STATEMENT
SHADOWS FALL - FOREVERMORE MASTODON - SEABEAST
WHITE CHAPEL - THIS IS EXILE
ARISE AND RUIN - BOUND BY BLOOD 
ARSIS - WE ARE THE NIGHTMARE
AC/DC - THUNDERSTRUCK
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA - HTML RULEZ DOOD

Miss Headbanger’s Ball on Mtv 2 on Saturday? You can watch all the videos here. Some people don’t feel like staying up that late on a Saturday night or sitting through all the commercials or the videos. So I’ve compiled all the videos here. That way you can choose the ones you want to see and no commercials. What I hate about Headbanger’s Ball these days is that there is no commentary and rarely interviews and such like there used to be. It used to actually make for interesting viewing when there was someone to commentate about the videos and had guests on the show. Oh well, those days are gone and now they pack it into one hour and just videos. Click read more to view all the videos and play only the ones you want to see.

WHITE CHAPEL - THIS IS EXILE

So what did everyone think of the new, 1 hour Headbanger’s Ball last week? I only caught the first few video before falling asleep. Getting old sucks. This week’s HBB has a bit of a mix that I’m not sure some are going to like. For instance, if you didn’t like The Dillinger Escape Plan video last week…you won’t like it this week. However the new Soulfly song Unleash kicks ass and I hope the video does as well. White Chapel will kick things off with their Headbanger’s Ball debut of Exile. Check out the list below for the full line-up.

Remember the new time for HBB is from 12 to 1 am

1. WHITE CHAPEL - THIS IS EXILE (Headbangers Ball debut)
2. LAIR OF THE MINOTAUR - WAR METAL BATTLE MASTER
3. MUNICIPAL WASTE - SADISTIC MAGICIAN
4. DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN - BLACK BUBBLEGUM
5. THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA - HTML RULEZ DOOD
6. SLAYER - RAINING BLOOD
7. LAMB OF GOD - WALK WITH ME IN HELL
8. KATAKLYSM - TAKING THE WORLD BY STORM SOULFLY - UNLEASH
9. LIVING COLOUR - TIME’S UP
10. THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER - EVERYTHING WENT BLACK

As you may have heard last week, HeadBangers Ball is being cut down to one hour. As if we were not getting starved for metal videos with two hours due to a crapload of commercials, now they are reducing it to 1 hour. I remember someone on Roadrunnerrecords.com saying “How are they going to squeeze all the videos in one hour with all the commercials” or something like that. Well the answer can be quite obvious from the list below. They drastically shortened it. Nice right? Well what the hell can we do? Suck it up and just watch nit anyway I suppose. Anyway here is the play list for tonight.

JUDAS PRIEST - WAR
LAIR OF THE MINOTAUR - WAR METAL BATTLE MASTER*
CRYPTOPSY - WORSHIP YOUR DEMONS
BLACK DAHLIA MURDER - EVERYTHING WENT BLACK
BORIS - STATEMENT
BLACK SABBATH - PARANOID
MUNICIPAL WASTE - SADISTIC MAGICIAN*
EMMURE - SOUND WAVE SUPERIOR
STRAIGHT LINE STITCH - BLACK VEIL
SLIPKNOT - LEFT BEHIND
LAMB OF GOD - WALK WITH ME IN HELL *

Here is tonight’s Headbanger’s Ball play list on MTV2. It seems they are hearing people’s pleas for better videos these days. Bow if we could just do something about all those damn repetitive commercials like the Emmure commercial. I’m diggin the new cd but damn.

Lets get this out of the way…Mtv2.com sucks. You have to go through 4 ads for the Andy Milonakis show just to get to the Headbangers Ball section. Andy Milonakis is proof that you don’t have to be funny to have your own show and you don’t have to be talented to be a star on MTV.

Anyway getting on to the line-up for tonights show. Tonights show will be all about Nikki Sixx. I don’t know what the hell is going on lately but Sixx is getting a lot of media, for what reason I just don’t know. Read more
