Taint Week: Day 1 |
Well as 'Hex Breaker' is the opening song, I'd like to set the scene once again by telling you more about it. It's a mission statement for the album. No punches are pulled, and I'd say it's our most aggressive song yet.
I feel the lyrics need little explanation, if any at all. What you hear is what you get, the sound of three guys not giving a ----.
The CD is in stores now but you can grab a preview and learn more about the band

Maxim Review Fraud Doesn't Fly with Black Crowes |
Case in point: the "review" of Warpaint--the new album by THE BLACK CROWES--in the March issue of Maxim magazine. The writer--who has not heard the album since advance CDs were not made available--wrote what appears to be a disparaging assessment anyway, citing "it hasn't left Chris Robinson and the gang much room for growth."
Incredulously, the magazine gave the album a two and a half star rating--although neither the writer nor the editor could have heard more than one song (the single "Goodbye Daughters of the Revolution"). When approached for an explanation, the magazine described the review as "an educated guess preview." Huh?

Jello Vs RIAA Mafia |
"Don't take from the smaller, independent labels. Then fantastic bands would have to surrender way too early, because they can't afford it, Support the independent labels, but the big ones �f*ck'em. Anyways, I haven't found anything in many years which come from a large label worth buying.
"The RIAA reminds me most of the Godfather, we will sue you. If you want out of this without going to court, we can make an arrangement: Give us $5000. If not, you will find a horses head in your bed. They are doing this to 12 year old girls, they are doing it to 80 year old women, and they do it to students."

Thugs Attack Pain |
"We had to cancel the gig tonight in Leipzig while some crazy a**holes kicked Peter (T�gtgren), Johan (Husgafvel) and David (Wallin) down when they where on their way home from a local bar yesterday. They just came from behind so there was nothing they could do. I was in the bus watching a movie so I am totally okay, besides the fact that we had to cancel.
"I feel really ----ty to cancel but there was no way we could play today. I hope we will be able to be on stage tomorrow but I am not sure. But the guys are in a good mood and are working on recovering. Today we will sleep in a hotel and I'll try to make our heroes feel a little bit better."

Walls Of Jericho Tour Plans Coming Crashing Down |
Here is what the band had to say: "We can honestly say that it is a huge disappointment on our end. This has been a tour that we have been extremely excited about and looking forward to for several months and to back out was very tough for us. However our label (Trustkill Records) has decided to pull tour support funding for this tour as they feel finishing our next record is the number one priority.
"Our management and label both feel that we need to be writing our new record in preparation for a spring recording and with this tour we just don't have enough time to accomplish all things. With that said the decision has been handed down and we are forced to cancel."
