Foo Fighters On Indefinite Hiatus says Taylor Hawkins
Rumors have been spinning around the old interwebs all day about a Foo Fighters break up due to a New York Post Page Six report. A representative for FF said the story was "utterly ridiculous". Normally when a rep comes out and says things like that.... It's totally true. Artisan News published a video with Taylor Hawkins that was short on January 16th saying that they're taking a hiatus. According to the page 6 article “The band is billing it as a ‘break,’ but it’s totally Dave going solo, and Taylor is pissed about it,” Grohl’s Oscar performance on Sunday [...]
Sensaphonics Namm 2016 Interview With Michael Santucci
Every year I attend at least the winter Namm show if not winter and summer. And every year I leave with something that has me talking, something that on the trip back I keep going back to how cool that product was. And it's generally not an amp or guitar I see tons of those and in general I think that we have those types of things pretty much figured out. Small things here and there will change your experience but we pretty much know what we're getting into from instrument to instrument. And obviously not to discount any instrument [...]

John 5 “Black Grass Plague” Video is awesome
John 5 has a new solo track out titled Black Grass Plague. "The video was produced and directed by Jonny Coffin of Coffin Cases," says 5, who also plays lead guitar for Rob Zombie. "We filmed it in a warehouse right next to Jonny's place. It was swelteringly hot in there that day, but we got through it, and if anything, the heat contributed to the energy in the video. "The star-shaped stage with all the neon lights is actually Elton John's piano riser," continues 5. "It turns out you can rent it. Who knew? Thank you, Elton!" The promo [...]
Lemmy Kilmister and MOTÖRHEAD What Metal Is Made Of
Whether or not you're into MOTÖRHEAD you know who they are. And even if you can't name a single tune you probably know who Lemmy is. While one of the planets most iconic voices in metal was silenced Monday December 28th 2015 the legend will live on and god willing his example will as well. Admittedly I am not the biggest MOTÖRHEAD fan. I am however a massive fan of who they are and what they do. While it's very well know that Lemmy fueled most of his life with a buffet of various chemicals, that (believe it or not) [...]
