Poison of Love? |
Idolator unearthed the casting call (that's not yet on the network's own poorly-updated web site) that asks women who want to "compete for the love" of this lead singer to apply. �the casting call insists that this is not some washed-up, old, B-list rock star; instead, he's still touring. Idolator originally speculated that the rocker could be the Counting Crows' Adam Duritz, Third Eye Blind's Stephan Jenkins, Smasmouth's Steve Harwell, or Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst.
However, the site reported yesterday that it "received multiple tips that the frontman in question is actually Bret Michaels of Poison," even though his band "is not only forever entwined with the '80s."�[from the casting call info (at the full story link) it sounds like Fred Durst may be a better call, but if so shouldn't they be casting men?]- Click Here for the Full Story

David Martin Debut |
Recall the classic hits of the '70s and '80s, presented by such craftsmen of the lost art as Billy Joel and Sting, and you realize that David Martin has picked up where these artists left off a quarter century ago. The company David keeps on the record is also testament to talent of this striking new artist. The album was mixed by Jeff Juliano (John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band, Jason Mraz), and David surrounded himself with a group of A-list players including Neil Robins (Dirt Poor Robins) and distinct drummer Manu Katché (Sting, Peter Gabriel).- Click Here for the Full Story

A New Testament Comp |
Consisting of tracks from such Spitfire/Testament titles as 'The Gathering,' 'Demonic,' 'Live at the Fillmore,' 'First Strike Still Deadly,' and 'Live in London,' the fourteen track set chronicles an era that ultimately saw the original Testament reunite for a successful 2005 tour. As a result, 'The Spitfire Collection' features both live versions of such Testament classics as "Practice What You Preach," "Over the Wall," and "Souls of Black," as well as such oft-overlooked studio tracks as "Careful What You Wish For" and "The Burning Times." With such bands as Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax introducing the world to thrash metal during the 1980's, Testament was one of the few second wave thrash bands to make a strong impression on the charts - resulting in such renowned releases as 1988's 'New Order,' 1989's 'Practice What You Preach,' 1990's 'Souls of Black,' and 1992's 'The Ritual.'

Shaw Blades Delay |
Originally scheduled for February 20, INFLUENCE is the duo's first album since their recently re-released 1995 debut, HALLUCINATION. Like the debut--and unlike their history-carving decades as icons in the more hard-rock minded Styx, Night Ranger and Damn Yankees--the latest release is rooted in acoustic guitar and organic production, harvesting a decade of musical influences into 11 tracks (on which Blades and Shaw played all the music except for drums and the occasional keyboards). With classics from the '60s and '70s including the Mamas and the Papas' "California Dreamin'," Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" and Steely Dan's "Dirty Work," INFLUENCE offers a track-by-track chronology of the musical era that helped define modern rock. Stay tuned for news about the band's upcoming U.S. tour, which is currently being confirmed for March and April.- Click Here for the Full Story
