I gave a list of My top 10 songs and cds this year. Some are new and some are old favorites. Check them out. Metal Martyr Top 10

I had a chance to check out a great show the beginning of the month and I got video Interviews with All That Remains Phil Labonte (Part 1 and Part 2), Light This City’s Laura Nichol and Ben Murray, and Black Tide.

Metallica Is Reissuing older releases on Vinyl.

Creator Destructor Records is a label operated by Light This City’s Drummer Ben Murray. Starting small but sure to get much bigger.

The Metal Potential Of 2008 is going to be great with all the great bands releasing new work and touring this year.

Sub-genre Hatred is never ending. Do you hate Metalcore?

I did a review of Marc Canter’s Book Reckless Road, the first years of Guns N Roses. I also called Slash Saul Rosenburg when his real name is Saul Hudson. Must have heard The Jerky Boys say Saul Rosenburg a few too many times and it stuck in my head.

I did a quick interview with Troy Medlin (T-Roy) of Southern Sludge Metal Band Sourvein here.

Metal has never been really radio friendly except on satellite radio

Do you think DragonForce’s song Through The Fire And Flames compares to the classic Eddie Van Halen Solo song Eruption? Let me know.

Black Tide released Light From Above on Interscope records and the Cavalera brother reunited for the Cavalera Conspiracy. Is there a possibility of a Sepultura reunion?

I did a quick review on As I Lay Dying’s First Recordings on The Long March

I talked about My favorite Concert and stepped away from Metal for a moment and talked about Straight Edge Punk legends Minor Threat.

Dimebag Hardware Clothing Line is up and running.

In Flames Release A Sense Of Purpose tomorrow. I got a copy early and I love it!

Metal fans are like rabid Pitbulls and sometimes we turn on our own. Read about it in I Am Hated part 1 and Part 2.

That’s about it for the month of March. If you want to see what else got posted this month, Click here.

As for me, I’m going to take the rest of the evening easy, throw some new Ernie Balls on my Ibanez and play around a bit. See you next month and thanks for coming!

Loaded with vintage pictures of the band and the bands they were in before Guns N’ Roses was formed this book takes you on a trip through history. The history of the entire band. From Axl hitch hiking from Indiana to LA to form form several bands to finally end up with the behemoth that was Guns N’ Roses.

Reckless Road puts you right in there with band members busting their asses in bars and broken down cars just trying to make it happen. This book has nothing to do with the future of GNR or the release of Chinese Democracy. Like the title says “The Making Of Appetite For Destruction“. Marc Canter is close friend of Saul Hudson. Better known as Slash and went about documenting the bands beginning to later release thousands of photos, excerpts, and band member statements in this book. If your the type that has a short attention span then this book is for you. So many pictures and you don’t have to read it from front to back afraid of missing important information. You can thumb through it, check out the pictures read the short runs and history of each band member and the timeline of bands and events that lead up to the making of Guns N’ F*ckin Roses!!
