Almost felt sorry for them when they played Download festival a few years back- I was out by the car park waiting for a bus when they came on and you could hear the booing from there- the car park was a good ten minutes walk from the main stage. That got shown on TV after, and sure enough, there was a big crowd of people there when mcr played- all walking in the direction of the camp site.

A few years ago MCR shared the bill with Tool at the Big Day Out ( festival ). I did not attend but I watched a show on C4 ( music channel ) about the day. One of the interviewers was asking fans what they thought of the bands. This ugly little emo chick goes "We came here to see MCR and some bogan ( metal fan ) pushed me over and said fuck off emo" I cracked up. Wish it was me that did that. MCRs fans are worse than MCR.

My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way Questions Judas Priest’s Metal

terrybezer / News / 23/12/2009 12:23pm

mcr0290Gerard Way doesn’t consider Judas Priest metal. Oh no, he didn’t!

Gerard Way has been flapping his gums about the new MCR album which is due to be with us in 2010. In amongst jabbering on about the band’s new album, he mentioned that some of the album has been inspired by Judas Priest. OK, now you’ve got our attention (not that we believe it for a second, obviously).

He then goes on to tell spinnermusic.co.uk: “Judas Priest is considered metal, but it’s great rock n roll. (New MCR songs have) nothing to do with that era of metal, the hair rock, but then having everything to do with like the birth of power-anthem metal.”

Judas Priest aren’t metal, they’re great rock and roll. Really? Judas Priest aren’t metal? Are you for real, douchebag?
(I'd like to add, since when did MCR have anything to do with rock n roll, let alone metal?)

Songs From The Sparkle Lounge sounds like the title a bunch of child sex offenders would call their album. Songs From The Sparkle Lounge: Music To Molest Minors. And now they're making cartoons and video games in an attempt to make themselves more appealing to children. Very suspect if you ask me. Make a stand against pedophiles. Boycott Def Leppard.  [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by kiamat from Tuesday, December 22, 2009 3:35:31 AM)

Def Leppard cartoon show in pipeline

Def Leppard
The band were huge in the 1980s on both sides of the Atlantic

British metal band Def Leppard are planning a cartoon TV show in the US starring themselves.

The group has entered a deal with music publishing company Primary Wave, which is also developing Def Leppard video games and mobile phone applications.

The animation project is still in the early stages and has not been pitched to TV networks yet, according to the head of Primary Wave, Larry Mestel.

There are no recording or touring plans in the pipeline, a band spokesman said.

The band toured North America earlier this year with Poison and Cheap Trick.

Rock royalty

The group's last album, Songs From the Sparkle Lounge, debuted on the US pop chart at number five in May 2008 and in the UK chart at number 10.

It was the highest entry for the band on either chart since the 1990s.

Primary Wave will now administer Def Leppard's publishing rights although copyrights will continue to be owned the the songs' composers.

Def Leppard are best know for their albums Pyromania and Hysteria, which sold millions of copies in the 1980s.

Rage Against The Machine Seal Christmas Number 1!

terrybezer / News / 20/12/2009 20:08pm

ratm90Rage beat X-Factor by over 50,000 copies!

Rage Against The Machine were tonight revealed as the first ever UK download-only Christmas number one. RATM sold a stggering 502, 672 copies while X-Factor winner/loser sold 450, 838 copies.

Congratulations to RATM and a giant high-five to each of you who bought your copy. Talk about taking the power back!

(To those who are not British- Simon Cowell's TV 'talent' parade has dominated the Christmas charts for the past four years, so this is something of an achievement. Plus lots of people got very offended by the idea of a 'disgusting' song like Killing In the Name Of being number 1 'at this festive time' and RATM got to swear a lot on the radio and upset the BBC. All in all, it's made for a very entertaining week.)

Rammstein To Debute New Promo Video On Monday

"Ich Tu Dir Weh" (English translation: "I'll Hurt You"), the new video from German industrial metallers RAMMSTEIN, will make its online debut on on Monday, December 21 at 1:00 p.m. CET at visit-x/rammstein. According to a press release, the clip "is the ultimate distillation of a RAMMSTEIN concert into five minutes. As with the preceding video, 'Pussy', Jonas Åkerlund [METALLICA, SATYRICON, MADONNA, THE PRODIGY] stands at the helm as director, and for 'Ich Tu Dir Weh', he captures the show on the band's 'rehearsal stage' in 35mm. A full-bodied format to do filmic justice to RAMMSTEIN's own brand of 'widescreen' staging.

"The plan was simple. Åkerlund uses the language of grand cinema, RAMMSTEIN delivers the rest: the theatre, the flesh, the frenzy. The result is formidable. 'Ich Tu Dir Weh' shows the band at its purest and most concentrated. A beast, only awakened to life onstage under the spell of fire and a maddening roar."

"Ich Tu Dir Weh" comes off RAMMSTEIN's new album, "Liebe Ist Für All Da", which sold 22,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 13 on The Billboard 200 chart. Previously, the group's best rank came with its 1998 chart debut, "Sehnsucht", which peaked at No. 45 off the strength of its only U.S. radio chart hit, "Du Hast". Although the band just had its highest chart debut, "Reise, Reise" sold over 26,000 copies in the U.S. its opening week of sales.
