No doubt having watched the Marty Schwartz guitar lesson it seems that everyone knows a Blink 182 song these days, including comedian Seann Walsh who named and shamed himself as being the bands number one fan in this year’s incarnation of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Still, it was good to hear
The men, the myth, the legend. Iron Maiden have had the kind of career that most dream of and hardly anyone can attain, a going concern since 1975 and seemingly only getting stronger, judging by their latest offering “Senjutsu”. However, we’re going back to 1992 and the title track of the album of the same
With 2023 fast approaching, does the World really need a reminder of what Slayer were capable of? Probably not. Are we going to do it anyway? Hell Yes. We all know that it’s only a matter of time before Kerry King’s post Slayer band starts playing these songs in the live arena once more but
1980 saw the release of the not just ground breaking but Earth shattering “Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables” debut album from American Hardcore Punks Dead Kennedys.

Yes we’ve gratefully received a album in “Aggression Continuum” and a remix album in “Recoded” but no shows to
Are there now more Linkin Park covers in the World than there are original Linkin Park songs? There must be. Such has been the outpouring of love for Chester Bennington since his tragic death. The undisputed Kings of Nu-Metal and the introspective lyric may never reform in his absence but there are plenty who would
Back in the early eighties rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot rose to prominence in Seattle Washington, regularly crossing into the World of the six string guitar. In 1988 “Iron Man“, which of course samples the Black Sabbath song of the same name became a hit single from his debut album. But arguably his most famous work is the
Not for the want of trying but it’s fair to say it has been a while since we had anything even vaguely Progressive in this long running feature but oh how things are about to change. Back in 1979 Progressive Rock Gods Pink Floyd wrote their magnum opus in double album “The Wall“, a record
