If you have been waiting for some new stuff from this amazing Gotenburgian band, this is the time for you. The BJ crew emailed me about their 3 new songs on the myspace, and told me that they are online at The Pirate Bay and I must say I have been waiting for this as much as you have.
Whats that classy sophisticate, John Lydon (Johnny Rotten, as his hygiene dictates,) been up to this time…?
Well he has once again, managed to upset the British public. This time he didnt even have to swear 16 times in the same sentence on live TV.
As some of you may have seen on the BBC channels, the eccentric punk is now flogging “Country Life Butter” in an advert. But “not because it’s British. Because it’s the best!” With much delight, we get to see Johnny waving the flag sardonically at the queen, getting held up by prancing sheep, looking in awe at a group of Morris-dancers, and finally being tailed by a group of hungry cows.
Now what bewilders me, is whom and why does this bother people??? Unless of course you’re a seventh-degree Vegan, with a hatred of Morris dancers, dairy cows, and wet sheep…. Well it seems that Britains first-generation Punk community, with their balding moheicans, and fading studded-leather jackets, have been taken aback in outrage at Rottens latest media pursuit. They have viewed it as “a betrayal” and a “sellout.” Some have stated “Sid will be turning in his grave” and “It goes against everything Punk stands for.”
Well it is in my humble opinion, that the above, is complete and utter bollocks! Indeed, Rotten and The Sex Pistols were all about anarchy. But since when did producing a butter advert mean the betrayal of all this? My depiction of “Anarchy” is being what you want, and behaving by your own means. Not living by peoples expectations or the established rules.
And secondly, “Sid vicious turning in his grave”??? I’m sure the guy has more important things to do (for example just lying there…) than to work up a fit over one lone butter advert!
Besides, I find the advert mildly entertaining, as its one of the few advertisements that doesnt make me want to gouge my eyes out due to sheer boredom. Unlike watching Carol Vorderman try to make us “take out a secure monthly loan” when she herself has gone into debt…. Or Mcdonalds with their new advert concerning their new chicken nugget recipe, Now with nearly 50% real chicken!!!!
So, rant over, i shall leave you with the now infamous advert! Feast your eyes on this! (do you get it? “Feast your eyes” because you eat butter, and we get to watch Mr. Rotten doing….. Oh forget it.)
Enjoy!
The Aussie rockers AC/DC are back, and re-establishing their position at the summit of Rock N Roll stardom.
With their world tour, dominating box-offices and internet sales, selling out within minutes; the release of their latest album is mirroring this paramount success!
“Black Ice” has scored the number one spot, in the UK albums chart, thrusting aside even the likes of Michael Jackson and Mariah Carey. It has been their first chart topper since the 1980′s “Back In Black.” It has also gained phenomenal success across Europe and Australia, gaining six more number ones hits! So far, the worst the album has achieved, is a number 3 in The Netherlands!
Described by Johnson as “The best we’ve done” as it shows the bands “versatility.” The album has sold approximately 5,000,000 worldwide, as of yet! In the eyes of Angus, as he announced on radio, the name “Black Ice” pays tribute to his early gigs in native Britain as it reminds him of “radio warnings up north of Black ice.”
Well, whatever the future holds, its good to have you back on the Rock N Roll Crazy Train old chaps!
Thought this could be something to write about. Have you ever been interested in re-living or live in the 80s Sunset Strip? Well this is your time, “Rock of Ages” is a new musical with former American Idol artist Constantine Maroulis.
Songs by Twisted Sister, Journey and Bon Jovi (among others) are included in the show, for more information visit: http://rockofagesmusical.com/
I have now been subscribing this guy on YouTube and I must say, he impresses me a lot. With this video he shows his skills by playing Metallicas “One” with great feeling and expertise. Can’t wait to see more new stuff from this guy.
Other songs he have done: Fade to Black, Paranoid, Stairway to Heaven and Run to the Hills among others, worth watching if you are interested in classical piano and such.

Check the video, I won’t say anything. Well one thing, it is a really nice gesture.
In early 2008, fizzy-drink manufacturer, “Dr. Pepper”, launched a challenge Axl’s way, in the form of a free can of Dr. Pepper for all, dependant on the of long-awaited and unlikely release of Chinese Democracy.
And now the album is almost upon us, less than a month away!
“We never thought this day would come. Now it’s here, all we can say is the Dr Pepper’s on us” states the company spokesman, Tony Jacobs.
In response to this, Rose claimed that he was “Surprised and happy” to have the support… (In the shape of a fizzy drink?)
This is the bands first album since 1933’s ill-received “The Spaghetti Incident?” And has worked its way to becoming the longest awaited, most expensive, and Rocks most controversial album in the history of music.
To receive a free can of Dr. Pepper, the claimer has to access the manufacturers website, and register for a coupon, within 24 hours of the release of the album. However, it could take up to six weeks for the voucher to arrive. Six weeks for a voucher worth 50 odd pence….. Is it really worth the effort?
New video from Sister Sin, a nice add along with the new interview
Do you think Simon Cruz will do a great job in CRASHDÏET?
