Please understand I cannot return until this situation had been resolved."[see full story for more]- Click Here for the Full Story

Tinfoil reports: Hello to my loyal readers out there, all six of you!

Blink Tribute
punkbands reports: Pacific Ridge has announced the final track listing for their upcoming Blink-182 tribute. The album is due out on December 20, 2005. The organizers are currently mastering the record at Double Time Studios in San Diego, apt because it is the same studio in which Blink-182 recorded Cheshire Cat. 

The label had this to say: I think the idea for the blink tribute came about long before there was even a label. Back when we were relentlessly searching the internet trying to find mp3s of zulu and marlboro man, and watching the video for �First Date' at least a thousand times. Pacific Ridge owes a lot to Blink 182, not just for their spectacular releases, but for getting us so involved in music that a label was born.

Red Death Plea
Metal Blade reports: The fine folks at SOTU are taking suggestions as to who should be on SOTU next year. Please drop them a line and let them know the presence of The Red Death is necessary and that, without Paul's ominous cloven hoof, the tour will be a failure!

Metal Blade reports: We know it has been quite some time since updates were made so we wanted to fill everyone in on what's going on with Goatwhore.

We are currently staying with some close friends out here in Phoenix and we will have a few shows in the beginning of December to help our current situation out. Please come out and show some support and hope to see you while we are out this way.

Dead To Fall Update
Victory reports: Dead To Fall are heading to Trax East to begin recording the follow up to their critically acclaimed 2004 album "Villainy and Virtue" with producer Eric Rachel. Rachel rejoins the band for round two � their previous collaboration was described in Revolver as, "Full of slab-like guitars and raging vocal growls, this brutish metalcore album will reach out of your speakers, beat you down, and steal your wallet." The great Paul Romano (Mastodon, Godflesh) returns to artwork for the cover � his images for "Villainy and Virtue" were some of the most striking to appear that year, and the band is eager to work with him again. The tentative title for the album is "Death and Rebirth" and singer Jon Hunt has said that it has a lot more classic metal elements than any previous Dead To Fall recordings. Expect the album in April 2006, and don't miss Dead To Fall on tour in January 2006 with Ion Dissonance, where new songs from the album will be performed! Dates will be confirming shortly.[see full story for more]- Click Here for the Full Story
